日常英语口语：如何表达＂被甩了＂

　　Dump¹ 书面的意思是扔掉，不过很多人都会用这个词来形容他们的一段恋情结束了——你可能会主动结束这段恋情，把对方甩了，或者反过来你被对方抛弃了。

　　In British English when you have a boyfriend³ or girl friend and they tell you they don't want to be with you anymore. They dump you——or you say——I've been dumped!

　　Dump的这个用法适用于非正式的场合，而且，这个用法非常流行哦。It's probably the most common way of saying someone didn't want tobe with you anymore.

　　下次，如果有人抛弃了你，那就是they dump you 或者你被抛弃了，就用you are dumped.

　　在杂志和电视节目中我们会经常碰到dump的这个用法。当然啦，在现实生活中希望大家永远不需要使用它。我们仅仅只要了解dump的这个含义就足够了。To dump——to dump someone——or to be dumped.
