Jessica在北京学中文,她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词,就会来请教她。今天是于苗要问的:闺蜜。
Jessica: Wow, 于苗!What are you doing all dolled up!
YM: 我今天要去见我最最好的朋友!她是我大学同学,我们都两年没见了!
Jessica: Oh wow, sounds like you guys go way back!
YM: 可不!她可是我的标准闺蜜!My best friend!
Jessica: Actually in English, you can call her your BFF. BFF stands for Best Friend Forever. People use this term to refer to their best friends.
YM: 原来BFF就是永远的好朋友!Yes, she's definitely my BFF! We were college classmates and lived in the same dorm for four years. 我们特别铁,无话不谈。咦,这个“铁”用英文要怎么说呢?
Jessica: You can say: we are tight! Tight是关系紧密的意思,也就是说你们特别铁!
YM: 可不!话说来跟我们一块吃饭的还有另外一个人!我们吧,也挺好的, 不过吧,She's super competitive. She always wants what I have! 你说这种人该怎么说?Partial BFF? Partial tight?
Jessica: 哈哈……that sounds like a frenemyof yours. Frenemy consists of friend and enemy, it is basically half friend and half enemy!
YM: 原来如此! This girl is a frenemy. 我们俩表面不错,但是暗地里好象老是在明争暗斗的。
Jessica: Sounds like a love-hate relationship to me!
YM: That's so true, 我对她绝对是又爱又恨,你看,今天我跟我闺蜜见面,她又跟来了!哎……
Jessica: 哈哈,开心点!Before you go, tell me what you've learned today!
所以,今天我们学到的内容包括:
第一,闺蜜是best friend forever, 也就是BFF,
第二,关系很铁可以用tight;
第三,亦敌亦友,叫做frenemy;
第四,爱恨交加是 a love-hate relationship!
好闺蜜,一辈子,当然在托福口语中也不能忽略。
