Lesson 3. 我們一家人
bling bling 穿金戴銀,一堆珠寶鉆石掛在身上
Hip hop singers like to go bling bling in their music videos to look fancy.
在音樂錄影帶里,嘻哈歌手喜歡披掛一堆珠寶,讓自己看起來很花俏。
wannabe想成為的人(事實(shí)上卻并不是)
Eminem was labeled as a black wannabe when he first came out with a hop album.
出一張嘻哈風(fēng)專輯時(shí),阿姆被認(rèn)為想當(dāng)黑人歌手(的白人)。
wannabe 是一個(gè)非??谡Z的詞,它事實(shí)上是want to be(相成為)三個(gè)字簡(jiǎn)略而成的一個(gè)名詞,表示事實(shí)上不是、也不可能達(dá)到某種狀態(tài),卻又很想成為那個(gè)樣子的人。在上面的例句當(dāng)中,阿姆明明是個(gè)白人出了黑人的風(fēng)格的嘻哈專輯,被認(rèn)為是想模仿。成為黑人的歌手,我們可以說他是black wannabe,同理可證,麥克杰克遜明明是黑人,拼命把自己染白,希望別人以為他是白人,我們可以說他是white wannabe。

He’s not a real basketball player,he’s more of a showboat with all the tattoos and fancy cars.
他不是個(gè)真正的籃球選手。他不過是個(gè)愛炫耀自己的刺青和好車的人。
Show 是指表演節(jié)目,doing a show 是指表演的意思。平常我們說一個(gè)人很愛現(xiàn)、愛炫耀,就用show off 這個(gè)動(dòng)詞,而showboat 是有表演節(jié)目的船,引申成為名詞,就是指愛賣弄的人。
