今天我們要學(xué)的詞是buzzword。 Buzzword, 是關(guān)鍵詞或引起人們注意的詞。這個(gè)詞的前半部分buzz來(lái)自蜜蜂嗡嗡叫的聲音。所以這個(gè)buzzword一旦進(jìn)了你的耳朵,就會(huì)ZZZZZ比如:"The buzzword of the debate among Republican candidates is 'timetable' for U.S. troop withdraw," 共和黨候選人辯論中最關(guān)鍵的一個(gè)詞就是美國(guó)軍隊(duì)撤軍的“時(shí)間表”。
Buzzword也可以指表示時(shí)尚、時(shí)髦的詞。"The buzzwords we will hear a lot in this year's presidential election are 'Green collar job,'" 今年大選中我們會(huì)常常聽(tīng)到的一個(gè)時(shí)髦詞就是“綠領(lǐng)職業(yè)”。當(dāng)然了,"The buzzword of our show today is buzzword."
