每天三分钟学英语 第185期:外国人说You're cut 竟然是在夸你(在线收听

 Andy: Oh, penguin's just as good.

-Penguin 企鹅
-Just as good 也一样
Andy: You work at the Hut? I would guess pizza, but based on your ripply stomach I saw when you helped me get down off the gondola ride, I'm gonna guess Sunglass Hut.
-Hut 小屋
-Gondola 刚朵拉(威尼斯小船)
-Based on…, I'm gonna guess
基于...我猜测
例句一:
A: Do you know how old Jenna is?
你知道Jenna多大吗?
B: Based on her personality, I'm gonna guess she's probably early 30's.
根据他的性格我推测三十出头
例句二:
How'd the interview go?... Based on your lack of enthusiasm, I'm gonna guess not good.
面试怎样啊?基于你无精打采的样子我猜不太好吧。
-Ripped stomach 平坦的小腹
-Ripped 肌肉多,脂肪少,但不是非常壮那种。比如李小龙那个样子的。
夸别人身材好,可以说:
He's ripped.
但每个人情况不一样,也可以说:
-Toned 有明显的肌肉
比如,女生一般就可以说:
I want to get toned.
-Cut 有很多肌肉
就像开头故事里一样,外国友人对中国朋友说:
Dude, you're cut. How long have you been working out for?
你好多肌肉啊,你健身多久了啊?
-Buff 肌肉多,块头大
举个栗子:
I want to be buff, but I can't put on any weight.
我想要变大块头,但是我增不了重了。
-put on weight 增重
-Beach bod
-Bikini body
这两个表达都是指可以去沙滩上晒的身材,比基尼身材。
比如,小意的心声:
I really don't want to go swimming because I don't have a beach bod yet.
我真的不想去游泳,因为我身材还没有太好。
