1.dis Dis其实是disrespect这个词的简略形式,意思是不尊重,不重视。这个词起先用在rap music绕舌音乐中。演唱的人以快速强烈的节奏说唱词。近年来青少年中风行绕舌音乐,于是他们就在日常交谈中借用了dis这个词。 例如:I was supposed to meet these guys in front of MacDonalds at noon, but nobody showed up. What happened I dont know but may be they dissed me by going some place else without telling me. 我和这些人约定中午在麦当劳快餐店门前碰头,但是他们连影儿都不见。我不清楚他们究竟是怎么回事。他们可能根本没把我放在眼里,所以去了别的地方都没跟我说一声。 2.props Dis的反义词。Props意思是尊重,它是proper respect 的简略形式。青少年常用props这个词来恭维某人或者某人的作为,要注意的是刚才学的dis通常当动词,而props却是名词。 例如:I really have to give you a lot of props. No one could have done a better job with this assignment. Our professor has to be more than impressed. Youll get an A for sure I think. 我可真佩服你。这个作业谁也不可能比你做得更出色的了。我们那位教授一定大为赞赏。我肯定你将得到A。 句中的give you a lot of props 意思是非常佩服你。 |
