Today, I'm gonna talk about words commonly used in British English

今天要來介紹英式英文的常用語！

British English

英式英文

Many people , just like me, like the UK and their accent

很多人可能跟我一樣很喜歡英國，也超愛英國腔

But comparing to American English

不過相較於美式英文

I believe that we are less familiar to British English

我相信大家對於英式英文是比較陌生的

There are many words that are used only in British English

英式英文當中，有很多字是他們獨特擁有的

If you heared them suddenly in a movie or a TV series

可能在看電影的時候或是影集的時候突然遇到

maybe you cannot see their meanings

就會不太知道他們的意思

Next week, a movie I've been waiting for a long time will be released

下禮拜就有一部我期待已久的電影要上映

which is "怪獸與他們的產地"

也就是 Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

怪獸與牠們的產地

The main character, Newt Scamander in it starred by Eddie Redmayne

其中 Eddie Redmayne 所飾演的男主角

is from British

Newt Scamander 就是英國人

(Are you cosplaying as him today?)

(欸你今天是 cosplay 成他嗎？)

Yeah! Do I look like him?

對阿！有沒有像？

So, before going to the movie

因此，在去看電影之前

I'm going to tell you

今天就要來教大家認識一下

the words I think are commonly used in British English

我個人認為常聽到的英式英文用語入門班！

And don't forget to watch until the end, there is a surprise!

那記得要看到最後喔，會有一個小驚喜！

Even though some words in British English are very unique

雖然英式英文有些字是非常獨特的

there are similar words in American English

不過相對的在美式英文也有類似的字

So I am gonna show both of them to you

所以我會把兩個都給大家看

and do some simple introductions

再來會做簡單的介紹

"Bloody" can be used before almost every word

Bloody 幾乎可以加在任何字的前面

to emphsize

用來當作強調語氣

And the similar word in American English is "freaking"

那比較接近的美式用法是 freaking

or "f**king" is also fine

或者是... f**king ...也可以

I'm so bloody excited

我超級無敵興奮那部

for the new Fantastic Beasts movie to come out!

「怪獸與牠們的產地」電影的上映！

When you feel something is strange, weird

當你覺得某件事情很怪、詭異

or not usual

或者就是哪裡不對勁的話

you can use "dodgy" to describe it

就可以用 dodgy 來形容它

I think the word is really similar to the verb "dodge" which means "閃躲"

這個字我覺得很像動詞 dodge 也就是閃躲

so there's a easy way to remember this word

所以有個很簡單的記憶法就是

If you dodge something

如果你在閃躲什麼東西的話

it means that there are something strange

就代表事情有蹊蹺

In American English, we can say "suspicious"

那美式的用法可以用 suspicious

I think I saw a lot of dodgy people in the trailer

我在預告片裡好像看到很多可疑奇怪的人

I'll be keeping my eyes on them.

我會好好盯著他們的一舉一動的

"Brilliant" is also commonly used in American English

Brilliant 這個字雖然在美式也很常聽見

but it's much more popular in British English

不過卻是英式英文當中非常愛用的字

This common word is clear

那這個通用語非常的簡單明瞭

It means great, awesome

也就是很棒，很讚的意思

Usually we'll use it when we heard something great as a response

通常會使用在聽到好消息之後的回應當中

The Fantastic Beasts movie is having its premiere

「怪獸與牠們的產地」電影的首映會

next Tuesday, it's brilliant!

是在下禮拜二耶，超棒 der!~

"Gob", in British English, means "mouth"

Gob 在英式代表嘴巴

and "smack" as a verb means "hit"

而 smack 若當作動詞則是有打的意思

so "gobsmacked" is like when you're surprised

所以 gobsmacked 就是當你很吃驚的時候

you will do this like "hit your mouth"

你就會做這個像是在「打嘴巴的動作」

In American English, if we 're surprised

在美式英文，如果我們很吃驚的話

we can use "shocked" or "astonished"

就可以用 shocked 或者是 astonished

I would be utterly gobsmacked

如果鄧不利多出現在這部新電影裡的話

if Dumbledore were to appear in the new movie

我一定會嚇到嘴巴掉下來

In British English, "wicked" means very cool

在英式中，wicked 的意思是非常酷，很帥的意思

but in American English, it means bad and evil

不過在美式，則是不好，邪惡的意思

So if you want to find a similar word in American English, you can use "cool"

所以如果想在美式表達類似的意思可以用 cool

I can't wait to see

我等不及要在電影裡看到

all those wicked spells and enchantments in the movie!

那些酷炫的咒語跟魔法了！

This adjective means you're extremely tired

這個形容詞代表你「精疲力盡，累到不行」

In American English, we'll say "exhausted"

在美式英文，則是會用 exhausted

Before the new movie

在去看新電影之前

I'm gonna go on a Harry Potter marathon

我要來一場哈利波特電影馬拉松

until I'm knackered

看到我精疲力盡為止

In British English, we can use "gutted"

在英式裡，可以用 gutted 來形容「悲痛欲絕」

to describe that you're very upset

在美式裡則可以用 devastated

and in American English we can use "devastated"

我買不到「怪獸與牠們的產地」的電影票

I couldn't get the tickets for the Fantastic Beasts

我超難過沮喪的

I'm absolutely gutted

不管是在美式還是在英式裡

No matter in American or British English

我們在乾杯的時候都可以講 cheers

we can use "cheers" before we drink an alcoholic drink

不過在英式裡

but in British English

cheers 大部分時候是代表謝謝，有時會代表再見

"cheers" often means "thank you"

那這邊也要特別注意

sometimes it means "goodbye"

在美式英文裡，cheers 通常只會有乾杯的意思喔

And you also have to be aware of that

幫我弄到「怪獸與牠們的產地」的電影票

in American English, "cheers" can only be used before you drink alcohol

真的是謝啦！

Cheers for getting me those tickets

在英式裡，如果你想要發出

for Fantastic Beasts, mate!

驚訝的感嘆詞，可以說 blimey

In British English, if you wanted to use a word

在美式類似的詞則可以說 wow

to show surprise, you can say "blimey"

或是 oh my God

The similar word in American English is "wow"

我的天阿！

or "oh my god"

他剛剛真的是從皮箱裡爬出來的嗎？

Blimey!

這在英國是一個普遍的暱稱

Did he really crawl out of a suitcase?

我們會用 mate 來去叫你的好麻吉

It is a common used word

在美式英文當中如果你要稱呼一位好友

We use "mate" when talking to a friend

則是會用 bro, buddy 或者是 pal

In American English, if you want to call a friend

嘿老兄，歡迎來到

you can use "bro", "buddy" or "pal"

充滿魔法跟奇珍異獸的世界

Hiya, mate. Welcome to

這是最常用的英式用語之一

the world of magic and fantastic beasts

在英文，rubbish 就是垃圾

It is one of the most commonly used British words

那你也可以講成 garbage

In English, "rubbish" means "垃圾"

那在英式英文的使用上

you can also use "garbage"

是當你覺得某件事很荒謬的話

But in British English

你就可以用這個字來說你認為他在亂講

if you thought something is nonsensical

那在美式當中就等同於說 nonsense

you can use this word to show that you think the person is saying something stupid

你對這個電影新系列沒有興趣？

In American English, it's like "nonsense"

這什麼話？

You're not interested in the new franchise?

其中最廣泛被 (世界) 使用的

Rubbish!

英式英文大概就是這個字了

The most used word

那這個字其實也有很多不同的意思喔

in British English might be this word

最常見的用法

And it has many different meanings

應該就是當成咒罵來表達你的不滿跟生氣

The most common way to use it

那另外一個常見的用法就是在說

may be the way to show that

你在胡說八道

you're dissatisfied and angry

所以其實 bollocks 就是

Another common way to use the word is

更進階版、更嚴重版的 rubbish

to say that "you're making nonsense"

那在美式當中則可以使用 bullsh*t

so actually "bollocks" is

你不喜歡這些新角色？

the stronger, greater "rubbish"

真是在胡說八道

In American English, you can use " bullsh*t"

英式的 fancy 通常當作動詞來使用

You don't like the new characters?

意思是，想要或者是喜歡

Bollocks!

在美式當中 fancy 則是比較常當做形容詞

British "fancy" is usually used as a verb

代表華麗高級，或者是很炫

which means "want" or "like"

你想要跟電影搭配茶加餅乾的套餐嗎？

In American English,

在英式裡 bugger 這個字通常會用來

"fancy" is more likely to be used as an adjective

咒罵某件出錯或是令人失望的事

which means decorative, high-class, or cool

若加上 off 變成 bugger off

Would you fancy some tea and biscuits to go with the movie?

就是叫人不要煩他，閃一邊去的意思

In British, "bugger" is usually used to

那在美式則可以用 get lost

curse for something that goes wrong or disappointing

不要煩我啦！我在試著使出漂浮咒

If you put a "off" after it to become "bugger off"

溫咖癲啦唯啊薩！

it will be like "don't annoy him", "get away"

在英式裡，若你想要抱怨某事

In American English, you can say "get lost"

就會用 whinge 這個動詞

Bugger off! I'm trying to conjure the levitation spell

那在美式裡則是會用 complain 一字

不要再抱怨只能夠看一部新電影了啦！

In British, if you want to complain about something

這個系列總共會出五集呢！

you will use "whinge"

In American English, we'll use "complain"

大家都學起來了嗎？
