趣味英语第133期:怎么能不再说swag

Overblake asks...

Overblake问道：

"How do I stop saying 'YOLO,' 'bae,' 'swag,' et cetera?"

“怎么能不再说‘人生只有一次’、‘最亲爱的’、‘有范儿’等词汇？”

Who even says "YOLO" anymore? That's, like-I don't know. It's old.

现在谁还说“人生只有一次”这种话啊？我不知道。那过时了。

Program your mind to not use those words.

让你的大脑不再使用这些词。

(slowly) Just stop saying it. Think before you speak.

（缓慢地）不要再说就好了。三思而后言。

I suggest that you slap¹ yourself every time you say the word, because that's what everybody else wants to do.

我的建议是，每次你说这些词时都打自己一巴掌，因为这是所有人都想做的事。

Talk to your friends in a normal voice. "Hey, guys! What's up?"

用正常的声音和朋友说话，比如：“嗨，伙计们！有什么事吗？”

You should just say it by words, not by that name. You should say, "You only live once."

你应该把每个词说清楚，而不是用简写。你应该说：“人生只有一次。”

Just come up with some new fun words to say.

想想有趣的新词。

That's so hard. You got to pick up new phrases like "for suresies"-that's a good one.

这太难了。你要选一些新短语，比如“当然”， 这个就不错。

Try and change your vocabulary. Stop hanging around people who say "YOLO" and "bae" and "swag."

尽量去改变你的用词。不要再和说“人生只有一次”、“最亲爱的”和“有范儿”这些词的人一起玩了。

You're already infected. There's no going back. You're gonna have to just go into isolation² for a while. Go in the woods. Find yourself. Learn a new language where you don't know "YOLO," "bae," or "swag."

你已经受影响了。没办法回头了。你要和外界隔离一段时间。去丛林。找到你自己。学习一种新语言，里面没有“人生只有一次”、“最亲爱的”和“有范儿”这种词。

Stop using any internet or any social media or any technology for about a week. Then you will be refreshed³. You will feel like a human being and not like a washing machine.

一周内不要上网、不要登陆社交媒体或用任何技术。这会使你恢复精神。你会觉得自己活得像个人而不是洗衣机。
