宰人用英语怎么说？ -j9九游会网站

jessica在北京学汉语，她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教她。今天是方方要问的：宰人。

jessica: 方方，your new cell phone is so cool!

ff: 那是，这可是最新型的智能手机!

jessica: 这手机很贵吧？

ff: 商店里卖5000块呢!

jessica:啊？ that price gives me sticker shock.

ff: sticker shock? sticker, s-t-i-c-k-e-r, sticker, 是商品的价签，shock表示吃惊，sticker shock就是说看到价签上的价格，被吓到了，对不对？

jessica: that's correct.

ff: 说起来，那天我去商场里买手机，when i saw the price, i got major sticker shock. 那价格让我大跌眼睛。这么贵，纯属宰人! 对了，“宰人”在美语里怎么说呢？

jessica: we use the word "rip-off". r-i-p-o-f-f. if something gives you sticker shock, you can say "this is a rip-off".

ff: this is a rip-off, 这是宰人价!

jessica: you can also say rip someone off.

ff: rip someone off？我明白，就是“冲某人要高价，宰人一刀”。那我要是说“我被人宰了”，就是 i was ripped off，对不对？

jessica: exactly! fangfang, don't you think you were kinda ripped off ? this phone is really pricey!

ff: there's no way i got ripped off! 这手机是网上买的，才1000块!

jessica: wow! that's a really good deal!

ff: 那是! 哎？怎么回事？手机怎么不动了？jessica 你看看，what's wrong with my phone?

jessica: let me see ....the phone is dead. it's broken.

ff: 啊？坏了？我，我昨天才买的!

jessica: it seems like you bought a shoddy phone. shoddy is spelled s-h-o-d-d-y. if something is of poor quality, you say it's shoddy.

ff: shoddy 就是形容质量低劣。嘿! 气死我了! 买了个劣质品。

jessica: you know what they say, fang fang, you got what you paid for.

ff: you got what you paid for? 便宜没好货! jessica, 你损我是吧？

jessica: 哈哈，别生气了。let's see what you've learned today!

ff: 第一，宰人是rip-off, 当动词是rip someone off;

第二，形容价格高可以说 something gives me sticker shock

第三，形容质量低劣可以用shoddy.
