I'll ping you是什么意思?

一說(shuō)到流行語(yǔ),

我就開(kāi)始方了!

這不,昨天一位00后的朋友

就突然甩出了一句:

I'll ping you.

這到底是啥意思呢?

一起學(xué)習(xí)一下吧。

 

In the modern age of technology, computers, and communication via social media, there’s a host of ways to tell someone to contact you.

在現(xiàn)代科技、電腦和社交媒體的時(shí)代,有很多方法可以讓別人聯(lián)系到你。

“Ping me” is one such phrase. It specifically indicates that you want someone to send you a text, email or some other internet-enabled communication platform.

“Ping me”就是這樣一個(gè)用途的短語(yǔ)。它尤其表明你想讓別人給你發(fā)短信、電子郵件或用其他互聯(lián)網(wǎng)通訊平臺(tái)聯(lián)系你。

It seems to be more frequent for younger users to say this.

你更常在年輕群體中聽(tīng)到這個(gè)說(shuō)法。

ping這個(gè)詞的起源

Although no one knows for sure, this phrase probably had its first influence from submarines equipped with sonar.

雖然沒(méi)有人知道確切的答案,但這個(gè)說(shuō)法的可能是受了裝備聲納的潛艇的影響。

A “ping” sound results after sending a signal.

發(fā)送信號(hào)后會(huì)發(fā)出ping聲。

Therefore, the original meaning for this word is a type of high-pitched noise that broadcasts from a sonar device.

因此,這個(gè)詞的原意是一種由聲納設(shè)備發(fā)出的高音噪音。

But, when we send emails and texts, we usually get a notification sound on our computers or smartphones. These often project a sound like a ping that broadcasts to you specifically.

但我們更熟悉的是,在我們發(fā)送電子郵件和短信時(shí)通常會(huì)聽(tīng)到電腦或智能手機(jī)上的通知聲音。它們會(huì)發(fā)出一種像ping一樣的聲音,專(zhuān)門(mén)吸引你注意而發(fā)出地。

Another, and more likely origin, is from tech jargon for the acronym, “PING.” This stands for Packet Internet Network Groper which means to check the online status of another server or computer. It’s a protocol to acknowledge a machine or device has an internet or network connection.

另一個(gè)更有可能的起源來(lái)自于科技術(shù)語(yǔ)的首字母縮寫(xiě)“PING”,代表Packet Internet Network Groper(包因特網(wǎng)查詢(xún)工具),這意味著檢查另一個(gè)服務(wù)器或計(jì)算機(jī)的在線狀態(tài)。它是一種確認(rèn)機(jī)器或設(shè)備有互聯(lián)網(wǎng)或網(wǎng)絡(luò)連接的協(xié)議的程序。

PING = Are You There?

PING的意思和“你在嗎?”一樣

In other words, it’s a way to ask a computer, “Are you there?” This is a useful command for a device’s host verification and system attachment to the network.

也就是說(shuō),這是向計(jì)算機(jī)詢(xún)問(wèn)“你在嗎”的一種方式。這是對(duì)設(shè)備的主機(jī)驗(yàn)證和連接到網(wǎng)絡(luò)的系統(tǒng)的有用命令。

There are other uses for PING, but this is the gist of it. So, to tell someone “ping me,” it’s a kitschy way of asking them to contact you through email or text.

PING還有其他用途,但這只是它的大意。所以,告訴某人ping me,這是讓他們通過(guò)電子郵件或短信聯(lián)系你的一種炫技似的表達(dá)方式。

例句:

Ping me later!

待會(huì)兒給我發(fā)消息!

Did you ping me already?

你已經(jīng)給我發(fā)消息了嗎?

You can ping me tomorrow when I get home.

明天我到家的時(shí)候你可以給我發(fā)消息。

“發(fā)消息”用英語(yǔ)還可以怎么說(shuō)?

發(fā)消息是現(xiàn)代人最常用的聯(lián)系方式,Message 可以指各類(lèi)消息,但老外不會(huì)把發(fā)消息說(shuō)成Send a message. 發(fā)消息地道的說(shuō)法是 Text someone.

例句:

Text me on Wechat!

用微信給我發(fā)消息!

Don't pang me

Pang 不是胖,而是一個(gè)英語(yǔ)單詞,意思是一陣劇痛。除了生理上的疼痛,也可以表達(dá)突如其來(lái)的感情。網(wǎng)絡(luò)流行語(yǔ)中,Pang帶有不尊重對(duì)方的意思,有挑釁的含義。

例句:

Don't pang me!

別小瞧我!

Hey, friend, why are you panging me?

嘿,老兄,你剛剛為什么不尊重我?

She felt a pang of guilt after knowing the truth.

知道真相后,她內(nèi)疚了起來(lái)。

好啦,今天的小知識(shí)點(diǎn),你學(xué)會(huì)了嘛?
