帅到掉渣的十句地道美国俚语
何谓“帅到掉渣”？就是以下这十句话一开口，连美国人都会被你吓一跳：“这中国人英语太好了！”而说来这十句俚语又是如此简单，一学就会。只要平常聊天中带上它们，立马就成为你的口语亮点！还不快点抱走？
下面这些俚语都是精心挑选的，我在美国读书时常听老美说的，这些可是被老美说烂的但教科书只字不提的地道美语哦，看完了可以在老美面前好好炫耀一番哦！！！
1. kick ass 了不起
A: Wow, you fixed my computer in less than 10 minutes. You're good.
A: 哇! 你不到十分钟就把我的计算机修好了呀! 你很棒!
B: Yep. I just kick ass.
B: 是的! 我就是厉害!
"kick ass" 除了字面上的「踢屁股」外, 还有「厉害、打败」的意思。当「踢屁股」时, 比如某人放你鸽子, 你很气, 就可以说: "I'm going to kick his ass." (我得踢他的屁股)。当「厉害」用时, 就像上面例句一样用。"kick ass" 还可作「打败某人的意思」。比如某人一向在某方面比你强, 终于有一天你比他厉害了, 你就可以说:"Hahaha...I kicked your ass."。觉得"ass" 太难听的人, 就用"butt" 吧!
【不管ass,还是butt,都是屁股的意思。只不过butt比较正式一些。黛西怎么老是写这些东东，真是庸俗不堪，社会主义精神文明的垃圾，我们新中国的有志青年可要擦亮眼睛，辩明是非啊！呵呵呵呵... 海泓注】2. kiss ass 拍马屁
A: Mary, I'm sorry for cheating on you before. Do you see any chance that we can get back together?
A: Mary, 我真的很抱歉对你不忠实。你想我们可不可能重修旧好呢?
B: I don't know, but you can kiss my ass.
B: 不知道, 不过你可以亲我的屁屁(巴结我)。
「亲屁屁」好象不大卫生吧! 不过人家就是这样用, 就照着「亲」吧!
"cheat" 除了作弊外, 还有「不忠实」的意思。
3. XYZ 检查你的拉链
Hey, man. XYZ.
老兄啊! 检查一下你的拉炼吧。
"XYZ" 是"Check your zipper." 的意思。在美国, 填表选项时多用打「X」来表示(国内则用打勾表示)。这个选项的动作就叫"Check", 也就是这里的XYZ 的X所代表的。Y 是Your, Z 就是Zipper 啰! 4. Hit the road. 上路了
A: Do you want to come in for some tea?
A: 你要不要进来喝个茶呢?
B: No. I'm running late. I really need to hit the road.
B: 不了。我快迟到了, 得上路了。
"running late" 是快迟到了的意思。
"Hit the road" 的"hit" 有「去」的意思。好比某人每周去健身房三次, 你就可以说"He hits the gym three times a week."。
"I really need to hit the road." 还可以用说成"I really need to get going."。
5. hang out 和朋友在一起
A: I don't know what is going on lately. Jack seems to curse a lot these days.
A: 不知道最近Jack 怎么搞的。他经常口出恶言。
B: Well, that's just what you get from hanging out with the wrong crowd.
B: 嗯, 交错了朋友就是这样啊!
"hang out" 是和朋友一起做一些事。看电影、逛街、聊天都算。也不限指异性朋友。
6. click (两人)合得来
I really like talking to her. I think we two really click.
我很喜欢和她说话。我觉得我们两个蛮合得来的。
好玩的字吧! 不过click 不一定只用在异性之间。朋友之间的频率相同也可以用。
【以前只知道click the mouse,真是鼠目寸光啊！】
7. suck 差劲; 糟透了
A: Guess what? We've just now missed the bus, and the next one won't come for another 45 minutes.
A: 知道吗? 我们刚好错过公车了; 下一班(车)还要四十五分钟才会来。
B: That sucks.
B: 真逊!
"suck" 是「差劲」的意思。"That movie sucks." 是「那部电影真是糟透了」的意思。
8. catch some Zs 小睡一下
A: Excuse me. I have to catch some Zs.
A: 抱歉! 我想小睡一下。
B: I thought you just woke up. Sleepy head.
B: 我以为你才刚睡醒。爱睡虫。
漫画里的人睡觉, 不是都画"Z,Z,Z..."来表示吗? 这里的"catch some Zs" 就是这样来的。"I have to catch some Zs." 也可以说"I have to take a nap." 或"I need to snooze."。
【噢！真是长见识。我怎么就没有想到呢？真该去测测智商。】
9. take a dump 上大号
A: Would you mind closing the door? I'm trying to take a dump here.
A: 你可不可以把门关起来呢? 我正在上大号。
B: Well, learn to lock the door next time.
B: 那么下次学会把门锁起来吧!
"dump" 是「丢掉」的意思, 「丢」什么不必我解释了吧?
「我要上厕所」(大小号都一样) 可以说"I need to use the restroom." 或简单地说"I need to go."。
10. crank up 把声量调大
A: Hey! The volume is too low. Why don't you crank it up some?
A: 嘿! 这声量太小了。你把它调大一点好吗?
B: No problem.
B: 没问题。
这里的「声量调大」也可以说"turn it up"。意思是一样的。
cranky 则是形容人暴躁、易生气。如: "Why are you so cranky today? Something happened?" 你今天怎么这么容易生气? 发生什么事了吗?

美国俚语大全
1. I couldn't care less. 这句话的意思是「我不在乎」，「缺乏兴趣」（lack of interest），也就是：I don't care at all. 或I don't give a hoot. 例如： 人家如果问：What do you think of the budget-cut?（你对预算削减有何看法？）你回答：I couldn't care less.（我毫不在乎） How do you like Mr. Lee's political point of view?（你喜欢李先生的政见吗？）I couldn't care less.（我才不在乎呢！） 但是有时说话者也有「口是心非」：例如： I couldn't care less about the promotion or pay raise.（我不在乎升级或加薪）而实际上他是根本在乎升级和加薪的，那么人家也许就会回答说：Yes, you do （care）. 至于I couldn't care more. 就是「我很在乎」（I care a lot.）或I care deeply. 同理： I couldn't agree more.=I totally agree.（我完全同意） I couldn't please you more.=I did my best to please you.（我尽量使你高兴）I couldn't be more right.=I am totally right. 但是老外为了「自尊」，不愿强调自己的错误，所以很少人说： I couldn't be more wrong. 注意：一般人都用否定句，但也有老外把肯定句与否定句互用。 不过，严格来说，I could care less. = I care to some degree.（care 的程度可能减少） I could care more.=I care some.（care的程度也许增加）（主词可用任何人称代名词：he, she, you, we, they 等。但只用could，不用can。） 2. No bones about it. 意思是：真实的，诚恳的（truly, sincerely or exactly），也就是to make no bones about it.（bone 要加s, it 是指something）例如： His wife is beautiful;no bones about it.（他的太太真是很漂亮） Mr. A made no bones about it when he talked about abortion issue.（当A 先生谈到堕胎问题时，他是诚恳的。） When I spoke on the topic,he said, "No bones about it."（也就是他同意我的看法） No bones about it;the weather is very chilly today.（今天是真的太冷了）

50个地道美语俚语
在美国学美語, 最有趣的大概就是可以听到很多俚语。很多時候光听那些句子, 好像不容易吗上可以会意出來他么在说什么,听了几次后, 就慢慢可以了解这些俚语的含意了。这里整理出來的, 都是一些很常听到的「酷語」喔! 不過, 不管什么语音, 都应该考虑到说话的对象、場合与时间, 有些俚語並不适合在正式的場合用。 1. kick ass 了不起 A: Wow, you fixed my computer in less than 10 minutes. You're good. A: 哇! 你不到十分钟就把我的電脑修好了呀! 你很棒! B: Yep. I just kick ass. B: 是的! 我就是厉害! "kick ass" 除了字面上的「踢屁股」外, 还有「厉害、打败」的意思。当「踢屁股」时, 比如某人放你鸽子, 你很气, 就可以说: "I'm going to kick his ass." (我得踢他的屁股)。当「厉害」用时, 就像上面例句一样用。"kick ass" 还可作「打败某人的意思」。比如某人一向在某方面比你強,终于有一天你比他厉害了, 你就可以說:"Hahaha...I kicked your ass."。觉得"ass" 太难听的人, 就用"butt" 吧! 2. kiss ass 拍马屁 A: Mary, I'm sorry for cheating on you before. Do you see any chance that we can get back together? A: Mary, 我真的很抱歉对你的不忠实。你想我们可不可能重修旧好呢? B: I don't know, but you can kiss my ass. B: 不知道, 不过你可以亲我的屁屁(巴結我)。 「親屁屁」好像不大卫生吧! 不过人家就是這样用, 就照著「亲」吧! "cheat" 除了作弊外, 還有「不忠实」的意思。 3. XYZ 检查你的拉链 Hey, man. XYZ. 老兄啊! 检查一下你的拉链吧。 "XYZ" 是"Check your zipper." 的意思。在美国, 填表选项时多用打「X」來表示(台湾则用打勾表示)。这个选项的动作就叫"Check", 也就是这里的XYZ 的X所代表的。Y 是Your, Z 就是Zipper 囉! 4. Hit the road. 上路了 A: Do you want to come in for some tea? A: 你要不要进來喝个茶呢? B: No. I'm running late. I really need to hit the road. B: 不了。我快迟到了, 得上路了。 "running late" 是快迟到了的意思。"Hit the road" 的"hit" 有「去」的意思。好比某人每周去健身房三次, 你就可以说"He hits the gym three times a week."。"I really need to hit the road." 还可以用说成"I really need to get going."。 5. hang out 和朋友在一起 A: I don't know what is going on lately. Jack seems to curse a lot these days. A: 不知道最近Jack 怎么搞的。他经常口出恶言。 B: Well, that's just what you get from hanging out with the wrong crowd. B: 嗯, 交错了朋友就是这样啊! "hang out" 是和朋友一起做一些事。看電影、逛街、聊天都算。也不限指异性朋友。 6. click (两人)合得來 I really like talking to her. I think we two really click. 我很喜欢和她说话。我觉得我们两个蛮合得來的。 好玩的字吧! 不过click 不一定只用在异性之间。朋友之间的频率相同也可以用。 7. suck 差劲; 糟透了 A: Guess what? We've just now missed the bus, and the next one won't come for another 45 minutes. A: 知道吗? 我们刚好错过公车了; 下一班(车)还要四十五分钟才会來。 B: That sucks. B: 真遜!
