The script of this programme 本节目台词 Producer/Presenter: John Escolme John: Hello, this is Real English from BBC Learning English, I’m John 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!
