转眼两个月的暑假就要过去了，回想暑假你做了点什么呢？相信很多小伙伴都选择了宅在家里，与空调，手机电视，被窝为伴！现代社会中，也出现了很多宅男宅女。那么“宅”用英语怎么说呢？我们一起来学习一下！ Couch potato means a person who watches a lot of television and does not have an active life. Couch potato 字面意思为沙发土豆，引申为喜欢窝在家里的沙发上看电视，也可以泛指喜欢懒懒地宅在家里，不出门。 这个生动形象的口语表达是1976年由美国人发明的。 有些人啊，就像种在沙发上的土豆一样，一动不动，并且还喜欢一边躺着一边吃薯片等零食。 My brother becomes a couch potato during basketball competition season. 在篮球比赛期间，我哥哥就变成了电视迷。 I am a couch potato during the whole summer vacation. 整个暑假我都宅在家里。 Homebody means a person who likes spending time at home rather than going out with friends or travelling to different places. 宅男宅女指的就是更愿意待在家里，而很少出去的人。 I am a homebody ,I prefer cooking in the kitchen by myself rather than dining out. 我是一个宅男，比起在外用餐，我更喜欢自己下厨。 stay-at-home stay at home 为短语待在家里，如果加上连字符，则既可以表示形容词“喜欢宅着的”，也可以作为名词“宅男，宅女”。 She is a complete stay-at-home, and she prefers staying at home and reading books all day ! - 她是个死宅，她喜欢整天待在家里读书。 My sister Emily is a stay-at-home girl. 我的姐姐Emily是个宅女。 |
