“你真奥巴马”成流行语 俚语词典释义为“酷”
美国本月第六版《UCLA俚语词典》即将发行,其中“奥巴马”竟成为一个流行形容词,意为“酷”。
据报道,这部词典由加州大学洛杉矶分校的语言学教授帕玛拉和学生们撰写,每隔四年推出新版。他的学生会从朋友那搜集俚语,随后再对这些俚语进行分析,以确保发音和意思准确。
据悉,这本160页的词典内容包括俚语及其定义、讲话片断、例句、语源学注释、俚语的来源等。在本部词典中“奥巴马(obama)”的意思是“酷”,比如“你真奥巴马(酷)”。
U.S. president an entry in latest slang dictionary
The sixth edition of "UCLA Slang" is being published this month and it is just "presh!"
The book is released every four years by linguistics professor Pamela Munro and her students at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA).
Munro said the lighthearted dictionary is put together using a methodical process that starts with students collecting slang from friends followed by a detailed analysis to make sure submissions are spelled and defined correctly.
"Students learn a lot about grammar, language and linguistics," Munro said. "You can study anything you want about ordinary language through the medium of slang."
The 160-page English-slanglish lexicon includes terms, definitions, parts of speech, sample sentences and notes on the etymology and origin of new slang, Munro said.
The dictionary supplies such words and definitions as "presh," which means cute or precious.
Other terms or phrases include "fomo," or fear of missing out, "schwa" for wow; and "obama," meaning cool, as in "You so obama."
"Bromance" means a close platonic friendship. And "bellig" means drunk and belligerent.
"Eargasm" means, well, just what it sounds like.
If all this is new, just say "I.D.K." to indicate "I didn't know."
