如題,重點在澳洲。 G'day,mate. 據說是最地道招呼用語。感覺就象火車上的人工報站,看著文字都聯想不到人家說了什麼。 大量的縮略詞,讓俺以前過的詞也成為新詞。說與寫的是兩碼事,學一個字變成學二個字。真讓俺如墜五裡霧中。 這兩天看到一篇澳洲俚語三十例的文章,摘錄下來,以供學習,記憶。 My mate Paolo invited me around to his house yesterday arvo for a quick cuppa. Paolo isn’t from Straya, but he loves a good cuppa. I said to him, “mate, can we just go to Macca’s? I really feel like a burger.” On the way to Macca’s, we had to stop at the servo for some petty. After filling up at the servo, I put on the radio. Accadacca was playing. G'day(Good day) 你好 arvo-- afternoon 下午 cuppa-- a cup of tea 一杯茶 straya-- australia 澳大利亞 Macca's-- McDonald's 麥當勞 servo-- gas station 加油站 petty-- petrol 汽油 Accadacca-- ACDC 澳洲著名樂隊名 (暫弄個音譯幫助記憶,阿卡達卡。 ) |
