Hello and welcome to The English We Speak from BBC Learning English. I'm Rob...
大家好，歡迎收聽BBC學習英語頻道推出的地道英語節目。我是羅伯……
And hello, I'm Feifei. We're here to teach you a real English phrase… Rob, what's that you're holding there?
大家好，我是菲菲。我們要教給大家一個地道的英語短語……羅伯，你手里拿的是什么？
Oh this… just a ticket to see one of my favourite rock bands in concert – The Rolling Thrones.
哦這個…只是一張門票，去看我最喜歡的搖滾樂隊的演唱會——滾石樂隊。
Oh great – and I see you've got more than one ticket.
哦，太好了——我看到你不止一張票呢。
Yes, that's right, a few of us from the office are going – it's tonight! I'm very excited.
是的，沒錯，我們辦公室的幾個人要去——就在今晚！我非常興奮。
Oh right – Rob, it sounds fun - maybe I could get a ticket and join you?
哦對了——羅伯，聽起來很有趣——也許我可以買張票和你一起去？
Why? You don't like rock music and you always stay in and wash your hair on a Thursday – or so you tell me anyway. Oh Feifei, you've got FOMO.
為什么？你不喜歡搖滾樂，而且每到周四你總是待在家里洗頭——至少你是這么跟我說的。哦，菲菲，你這是得了錯失恐懼癥啊。
I've got 'FOMO'? Is that bad? Is that why you didn't invite me? Oh dear, should I go and see a doctor?
我得了“錯失恐懼癥”？這很糟糕嗎？這就是你沒邀請我的原因嗎？天吶，我是不是該去看醫生？
No, don't see a doctor. FOMO is an acronym for 'fear of missing out'. It's a worried feeling you have that other people are doing fun things when you are not – you're missing out!
不，不用看醫生。FOMO是“害怕錯過”的縮寫，指的是當你不在場時，別人正在享受有趣的事情，而你卻錯過了，由此產生的一種焦慮感。
Oh, we'd better hear some examples of other people with FOMO…
哦，我們最好聽聽其他患有錯失恐懼癥的人的例子……
I know Martha's got FOMO, she's been moaning about not being invited to Wang's karaoke party – but she doesn't even like karaoke!
我知道瑪莎有錯失恐懼癥，她一直在抱怨沒被邀請去王的卡拉OK派對——可她根本不喜歡唱卡拉OK！
All my friends are going on holiday together but I can't afford it so I've got FOMO.
我所有的朋友都一起去度假了，可我負擔不起，所以我害怕自己被落下了。
There's a message on Facebook that all the tickets to that gig are sold out – now I have a feeling of FOMO!
臉書上有條消息說那場演出的票全賣光了——現在我感覺自己害怕錯過了！
So that's FOMO – fear of missing out – which describes a feeling you might have when you feel other people are doing something fun, when you are not. Well Rob, now I know what it means, I know I haven't got it. I just wanted to be sociable, and have some fun with you all.
這就是FOMO——錯失恐懼癥，描述的是當你覺得別人在玩得開心而自己卻不在場時可能產生的感覺。好吧，羅伯，現在我明白它的意思了，我知道我沒有這種癥狀。我只是想合群一點，和大家一起開心開心。
Sorry Feifei, even if you could get a ticket, it's boys only I'm afraid.
抱歉菲菲，就算你能拿到票，恐怕也只限男生。
Oh look, I've got a message on my social media feed… is the lead singer of your band called Mick Dagger?
哦，看，我的社交媒體動態上收到一條消息……那個樂隊的主唱是叫米克·達格嗎？
That's him – the finest rock singer around – why?
就是他——最棒的搖滾歌手——怎么了？
It says here, he's fallen down the stairs and broken his leg. The rock concert is cancelled!
消息說，他從樓梯上摔下來，腿摔斷了。搖滾音樂會取消了！
Cancelled? Oh no. Err, what did you say you were doing tonight?
取消了？哦不。呃，你剛才說你今晚要做什么來著？
Washing my hair.
洗頭發。
Any chance I could come round… watch a movie, get a takeaway?
我能去嗎……一起看個電影，叫個外賣啥的？
Oh dear Rob. Have you got FOMO now? Bye.
親愛的羅伯，你現在是不是怕錯過什么呀？再見。
Bye.
再見。
