阿甘的美國大冒險

CRAZY TEACHER 的瘋狂英語教室: 美國人這樣說

第二十五課: hickey

脖子上被種草莓雖然是愛的表現, 但總會引起旁人注目甚至引發閒言閒語, 這時該怎麼辦才好? 有什麼辦法可以讓它消失?

hickey   n.

Definition:  a temporary mark or bruise on one's skin resulting from kissing; a love bite  吻痕; 種草莓

Example:

Liz:  What is that on your neck? Is it a hickey from David?　你脖子上那是什麼？David 的種的草莓嗎?

Joyce:  No...it's from a guy I met at the bar last night.  I need to find a way to hide it.  I can't let David  see it. 不, 是我昨晚在夜店認識的一個男人, 我得把它遮住, 不能讓David 看到....

Liz: You slut!  你這個淫蟲

What should I do when I have a hickey? 博子上有吻痕要怎沒跟外人解釋哩？

A hickey is a bruise. It doesn't  disappear right away. It takes a few days to fade away naturally. So there's not much you can do.  Wear a scarf or turtleneck.  Or stay home!

吻痕其實是瘀血, 不可能很快消失, 所以你也無能為力, 只能等個幾天等它消失....建議呆在家裡吧! 別到處亂跑~
