在加拿大

被老美说烂的但教科书只字不提的地道美语哦，看完了可以在老美面前好好炫耀一番哦！！！ 1. kick ass 了不起A: Wow, you fixed my computer in less than 10 minutes. You're good.A: 哇! 你不到十分钟就把我的计算机修好了呀! 你很棒!B: Yep. I just kick ass.B: 是的! 我就是厉害!"kick ass" 除了字面上的「踢屁股」外, 还有「厉害、打败」的意思。当「踢屁股」时, 比如某人放你鸽子, 你很气, 就可以说: "I'm going to kick his ass." (我得踢他的屁股)。当「厉害」用时, 就像上面例句一样用。"kick ass" 还可作「打败某人的意思」。比如某人一向在某方面比你强, 终于有一天你比他厉害了, 你就可以说:"Hahaha...I kicked your ass."。觉得 "ass" 太难听的人, 就用 "butt" 吧!不管ass,还是butt,都是屁股的意思。只不过butt比较正式一些。黛西怎么老是写这些东东，真是庸俗不堪，社会主义精神文明的垃圾，我们新中国的有志青年可要擦亮眼睛，辩明是非啊！呵呵呵呵... 注

XYZ.老兄啊! 检查一下你的拉炼吧。"XYZ" 是 "Check your zipper." 的意思。在美国, 填表选项时多用打「X」来表示(台湾则用打勾表示)。这个选项的动作就叫"Check", 也就是这里的XYZ 的 X所代表的。Y 是 Your, Z 就是 Zipper !
