Donny: Jimmy, 天真熱!Let's go drink some cold beer!
Jimmy: ???冰啤酒啊,我女朋友不讓。
Donny: Why?
Jimmy: 她說我有啤酒肚。But look at my belly, is it really that bad?
Donny: 呃……,I have to say she has a point. You've got a beer belly for sure.
Jimmy: Beer belly?beer,啤酒,加上 belly, 肚子,beer belly,啤酒肚。這個詞真好記。
Donny: Yeah. It's easy to remember.
Jimmy: 那不說 beer belly, 還有其它說法嗎?
Donny: Let's see...you can call it a "keg." k-e-g, keg. A keg is a barrel to store beer.
Jimmy: keg是啤酒桶?你是說我這肚子活生生就是一啤酒桶?
Donny: Don't worry. You can go from keg to six-pack abs if you exercise and eat healthy.
Jimmy: six-pack abs? 我知道 a-b-s, abs 指腹肌, six-pack不是半打啤酒么?
Donny: Six-pack abs are the muscles at your midsection. 一邊三塊,一共六塊。Ab是個俚語,意為an abdominal muscle。
Jimmy: 哦,我明白了,six-pack abs 就是“六塊腹肌”。天??!從啤酒肚變成六塊肌,得做多少仰臥起坐??!
Donny: I know it's hard, but a lot of people say sit-ups really help them lose their beer bellies. You want your girl to be happy, right?
Jimmy: 好,為女朋友高興,我這就回家做 sit-ups,仰臥起坐!
Donny: Enjoy your workout! But first tell me what you've learned today.
Jimmy: 第一,“啤酒肚”叫 beer belly, 或者 keg;
第二,六塊腹肌,叫 six-pack abs;
第三,仰臥起坐叫 sit-up,s-i-t, sit; u-p, up. sit-up!
