喝一口BBC地道英语口语对话

　　Jean: And I’m Jean. Hello!

　　John: In Real English, we look at words and phrases that you might not find in your dictionary.

　　Jean: 和汉语一样，英语里也是有着非常多的成语和俗话的，所以要想能听得懂英国人日常的说话聊天，就一定要来学学这些他们常用的通俗词语。

　　John: Today’s word is swig S-W-I-G swig

　　Jean: I might say can I have a swig of your water?

　　Jean: 原来swig的`意思就是很快的拿起来喝一口什么东西。你可以说to take a swig 或者to have a swig，或者干脆就可以光说swig.

　　John: We use the word a lot when talking about alcohol too – you might hear something like ‘I’ll have a quick swig of beer’ – or ‘he was in the pub swigging wine’. You can use it any time when you’re talking about drinking something.

　　Jean: 原来swig这个词也是经常用来形容喝酒的，比如“I’ll have a quick swig of beer”“那我就很快地来口啤酒吧”。不过这是个非常随便的用法，并不适合在正式场合的时候使用。

　　John: Let’s listen to some examples.

　　Insert

　　A: Would you like some juice?

　　B: Oh I’m OK thanks. I’m not very thirsty – I’ll just take a swig of yours if that’s all right.

　　A: That beer looks really nice.

　　B: Do you want to try it? Here, have a swig

　　John: Actually all this talking is hurting my throat. Can I have a swig of your water?

　　Jean: Of course – in fact my throat is a bit dry too – I think I’ll have a quick swig too.

　　John: And er, do you have any plans after we finish the programme, pres?

　　Jean: Well, actually I’m going to meet my friend in the pub. He’s in there now, probably swigging beer and reading the paper while he waits for me to arrive.

　　John: Oh I’d love a swig of beer right now.

　　Jean: 怎么说到喝酒你就真要喝了？还没复习一下今天学的这个新词呢。Swig，就是很快地

　　拿起来喝一口什么东西的意思。And that’s all we have time for today.

　　John: Yes, you’ve been listening to Real English from BBC Learning English – we’ll see you next time.

　　Jean: Bye!
