Nick: Hi everybody, this is Nick. Welcome to teaching series "how do you say this in American English."大家好,我是Nick.
David: 大家好,我是David
Nick: 今天有些特別,我們來(lái)學(xué)習(xí)一個(gè)粗口,臟話。學(xué)習(xí)這個(gè)當(dāng)然不是為了去使用,主要還是說,當(dāng)你聽到的時(shí)候,知道是什么意思。你不能被罵了還以為別人在夸獎(jiǎng)你,對(duì)吧。那這個(gè)詞呢,就是,"腦殘"。不是好詞吧,英文呢,叫retarded. 是一個(gè)形容詞。今天我們看新嘉賓David是怎么解釋的
Nick: Hi, David.
David: Hi, Nick.
Nick: So like what I said, retarded isn't a good word, right?
David: No, it's definitely not. It's a really offensive word that you don't ever wanna use.
Nick: Yeah, you are right. I shouldn't have used this word this afternoon. I was playing league of legends. There was a guy who kept dying and thus affected our whole team. So we lost. I insulted him saying like you are retarded. I feel so terrible now.
David: I don't really play computer games but I do know saying that is not nice. It simply means something that's stupid or they are an idiot. It's a really extreme way of saying that. For example, if you are working on a group project with someone. And they are just having a really hard time understanding the material. And you are just really upset with them. You might call them retarded. But, that's not a good thing to call them. It's really offensive and taking things way too far. So if you really need to, you can say the word "stupid" or call them "an idiot".
Nick: Ok. Yeah I wouldn't use this word. It sounds a little bit too much for them. Same for my game. I feel like I was being mean.
David: Yeah Correct.
Nick: Yeah, I guess I gotta go back to the game and say sorry to that person. That was so terrible, saying that word.
David: Sounds like a good plan. I think you have to. So this is pretty it for this time. I'll see you guys next time, bye
David: bye
Nick: 再補(bǔ)充說明一下,因?yàn)檫@個(gè)retarded實(shí)在是很cross the line的一個(gè)詞,非常臟。(智障腦殘的意思)所以我建議大家不要去使用這個(gè)詞。實(shí)在要用的話,可以用stupid。盡量不要使用這個(gè)詞。那再次的再見,bye
David: See ya.
