Chinwag
Having a good chat
Neil
: This is Real English from BBC Learning English. I’m Neil.

Helen: And I’m Helen.

Neil: Today we’re going to look at words and phrases that have recently become part of the English language.

Helen: 在我们的Real English《地道英语》节目中,我们要来学习一些现代英国英语的新词汇和新说法。

Neil: English is a living language. New words, phrases and expressions are constantly appearing.

Helen: 所以要想跟紧这些语言的最新动向,就要收听我们的Real English.

Neil: Absolutely.

Helen: OK Neil, 我们今天要说的新词是什么呢?

Neil: Today’s new word is "chinwag".

Helen: Chinwag. What does that mean?

Neil: Well, chinwag is an informal word meaning "gossip2".

Helen: 噢我知道了,Chinwag就是闲谈闲话的意思,那这个词组该怎么用呢?

Neil: Chinwag is a noun, so you can say "I had a good chin wag1 with my sister on the telephone."

Insert

A: Did you have fun at your school reunion?

B: It was brilliant! I had a good chinwag with a few old friends I haven’t seen for years.

Neil: Do you like a good chinwag?

Helen: Of course. Everybody does.

Neil: Me too. I like to meet my friends for dinner, and have a good chinwag.

Helen: 不过我觉得咱们女孩子比男孩子更喜欢叽叽喳喳说长道短的chinwag

Neil: No! Men like a chinwag too! But men talk about different things, like football.

Helen: Yes, Neil.

Neil + Helen: Anyway let’s recap – chinwag – is an informal word for gossip. 所以我们今天的新词组就是chin wag,就是咱们口语说的碎嘴饶舌的说闲话。

 

Helen: Well, it looks like we have to finish.

Neil: Yes, we do. Join us again soon for more up-to-the-minute Real English. Bye.

Helen: See you next time.
