刷手机成为每个人的必做项目,那你知道“刷”这个动作,对应的是哪个英语单词吗?看看《心机妹》的这个片段,看看用的是哪个词吧。

对话原文:

Did you see that?

你看见了吗 

She swiped me!

她把我的消息划走了 

I can't believe she just swiped me.

难以置信她划走了我 

What if I was choking?

如果我窒息了呢 

Why would you text her if you were choking?

你窒息了为什么要给她发短信 

Because I wouldn't be able to talk.

因为我没法说话 

Okay, that actually makes sense.

挺有道理的 

This is getting worse.

情况越来越糟糕了 

She used to respond to my texts, even my homemade memes.

她过去会回复我的短信 甚至是我自制的表情包

This is starting to become a problem.

这开始成为一个问题

 

今日重点:

划走:swipe。这个词本义是击打,挥舞。还可以表示“划”手机。swipe the screen,滑动屏幕;swipe the phone,刷手机(注意不要说swipe on the phone)

窒息:choke。区别另一个词suffocate,choke更表示“呛到了”,而suffocate表示“被掐死”的窒息

发短信:text。这个词可以直接作动词表示“发短信”,就不用说send her the text了

有道理:make sense

自制表情包:homemade meme。
