露西的一天 第30期:吃早飯講解(5)

The toaster, "toaster," is a place where you put bread and you heat it up so that the bread becomes brown. 你可以把面包放進烤箱(toaster)然后把它加熱到變成棕色。

We would say, "you toast the bread," using "toast" as a verb. 我們說的“你烤些面包”，這里的烤(toast)是動詞。

So, you toast toast in a toaster. 你在烤箱里烤面包。

There you see the verb, the noun, and the noun, which is the machine where you make the toast. 這個句子里依次有名詞、動詞和另一個名詞。第一個名詞就是你烤面包的機器。

"When the eggs are nice and brown," meaning when the eggs are very brown, "on the edges," “雞蛋煎好了”，“邊緣變成了棕色”，意思是雞蛋煎熟了，

Lucy uses "a spatula to put them on a plate." 露西用“用鏟子把它盛到盤子里”。

The edge, "edge," of something is the very end of something - the very outer part, the part that is at the very end of the object. 邊緣(edge)是指某個東西的盡頭，最外部的那一部分，也就是在物體最末端的那一部分。

So, when you take an egg and you crack it, "crack," meaning you open the egg, 所以，你拿起雞蛋磕開，磕開(crack)意思是你打開了雞蛋。

you crack the egg and you put the egg into the frying pan, 你磕開雞蛋，把雞蛋放進煎鍋，

the egg will form something like a circle, and at the - around the egg are the edges. 雞蛋就會形成一個像圓的蛋餅，雞蛋周圍就是邊緣。

Also, I should mention that the white part of the egg - the outside of the egg is called the eggshell, "shell," the eggshell, but you don't eat the eggshells normally. 還有，我要提一下，雞蛋白色的那部分，雞蛋外邊那一層叫作蛋殼(shell)，通常沒人會吃蛋殼。
