Lindsay: All right Gabby, how (are) you feeling today? Lindsay：好的，Gabby，你今天感覺怎麼樣？

Gabby: Hey. I'm feeling good Lindsay. How are you?

Lindsay: I'm great and I'm really excited because yesterday we had Jason, the Fluency MC guy on and… Gabby: Yeah. Lindsay：我很棒，我真的很興奮，因為昨天我們請來了流暢的主持人 Jason，還有… Gabby：是的。 That was so much fun. He did an awesome rap for us. 他為我們做了一段很棒的說唱。

Oh, it was so cool. I, I loved it.

We were dancing over here enjoying it. 我們在這裡跳舞很享受。 (It's) so much fun to learn English through music. 透過音樂學習英語真是太有趣了。

Lindsay:

It's awesome. So, so in, in Jason's (uh) rap or Hip-Hop song, he actually brought out a few phrases that we wanted to share with you guys today. 所以，在傑森（呃）的說唱或嘻哈歌曲中，他實際上提出了我們今天想與大家分享的一些短語。

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

So our first phrase “catch a movie.” (Mm), catch a movie. Donc, notre première phrase "Attrapez un film". (Mm), regarde un film. 所以我們的第一句話是「看電影」。 （嗯）看電影吧。 Does that mean actually like I catch it in my hand? Cela signifie-t-il vraiment que je l'attrape dans ma main ? 這是否意味著我真的把它抓在手裡了？ Like what…? What is that?

Gabby:

Here's a DVD. 這是一張 DVD。 Quick. Catch!

Lindsay:

Got it.

Gabby:

No, it means to go see a movie. 不，它的意思是去看電影。

Lindsay:

I see.

Gabby:

Like “Hey, Lindsay, you want to ‘catch a movie' with me?” Lindsay: 例如“嘿，林賽，你想和我一起‘看電影’嗎？”林賽：

‘Catch a movie.' Okay.

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

So that's a really casual way to invite someone out for the movie. 所以這是邀請某人出去看電影的一種非常隨意的方式。

Lindsay:

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

So (if you're) trying to ask someone out on a date, you can say “Let's ‘catch a movie'.” Gabby: 所以（如果你）想約某人出去約會，你可以說“我們‘看電影’吧。”蓋比：

Yeah.

Lindsay:

“You wanna (want to) ‘catch a movie'?” Gabby: “你想（想）‘看電影’嗎？”蓋比：

Or ‘catch a game' maybe? 或「看一場比賽」？

Lindsay:

You could say that. ‘Catch a game.' “看一場比賽。” Gabby:

I think those are the only two ways you'd use ‘catch' in that way. 我認為這是您以這種方式使用“catch”的唯一兩種方式。

Lindsay:

Gabby:

© All Ears English www.allearsenglish.com Yeah, I would say.

Yeah.

Lindsay:

Those are the only two ways. 這是唯一的兩種方法。

Gabby:

Cool. (Um) what's the next phrase we have (uh) from, from the song? （嗯）我們從這首歌中得到的下一個短語是什麼？

Lindsay:

Yeah, the next one that I heard was ‘to be a perfect match.' 是的，我聽到的下一個是「完美匹配」。 Gabby:

Ooh, a ‘perfect match.' 哦，「完美的搭配」。 That's a really cute phrase. 這真是一個可愛的短語。 It means, (you know), you're just meant for someone, you get along really well, and you have a great relationship, a romantic relationship. 這意味著，（你知道），你就是命中註定的某人，你們相處得很好，而且你們有很好的關係，一段浪漫的關係。

Lindsay:

Maybe you have complementing personalities, for example. 例如，也許你們的性格互補。

Gabby:

Yeah.

Lindsay:

And you just, you match really well with the person just like the right foot matches the left foot. 而你，你和這個人非常匹配，就像右腳和左腳很匹配一樣。

Gabby:

Cool. The next phrase is ‘hard to get.' 下一個短語是“很難得到”。 Lindsay:

Oh, ‘play hard to get.' 噢，‘欲擒故縱’。 Tricky. 棘手。

Gabby:

Yeah, there is (are) some rules about ‘playing hard to get,' (like) if you meet someone, don't call them for at least three or four days. 是的，有一些關於「欲擒故縱」的規則，（例如）如果你遇到某人，至少三四天內不要打電話給他們。

Lindsay:

Oh my gosh. Do you actually believe in those rules? 你真的相信這些規則嗎？

Gabby:

(Um) naw (no), naw (no). （嗯）不（不），不（不）。

Lindsay:

Not too much. 不是太多。

Gabby:

Naw (no), but some people believe that you should play ‘hard to get,' don't return texts… indsay: 不（不），但有些人認為你應該玩「欲擒故縱」的遊戲，不要回簡訊…indsay：

Gabby:

© All Ears English www.allearsenglish.com Lindsay:

Especially women. 尤其是女性。

Gabby:

Yeah, yeah, especially women. Don't return phone calls, act like you're not interested, act like you're always busy. 不要回電話，表現得好像你不感興趣，而且表現得好像你總是很忙。 I just say don't act, that's my advice. Je dis juste de ne pas agir, c'est mon conseil. 我只是說不要採取行動，這是我的建議。 If you're busy, you're busy right. Si vous êtes occupé, vous êtes occupé à droite. 如果你很忙，你就很忙。 If you didn't see the text right away, that's fine, but (um), ‘playing hard to get'- it's a big game. Si vous n'avez pas vu le texte tout de suite, c'est bien, mais (euh), "jouer dur pour obtenir" - c'est un gros match. 如果你沒有立即看到文字，那也沒關係，但是（嗯），「欲擒故縱」——這是一場大遊戲。

Yes.

And nobody wins. 沒有人贏。

Lindsay:

And nobody wins and everyone ends up confused. 沒有人獲勝，每個人最終都感到困惑。

Gabby:

Yeah, yeah.

Lindsay:

Was there anything else? 還有別的事嗎？

Gabby:

Yeah, there was one more.

Lindsay:

Oh yes, so to be ‘out on the town' or to ‘go out on the town.' 哦，是的，所以是“出城”或“出城”。 Gabby:

Yeah.

‘Go out on the town' is like going on a date and it's not really specific, it's kind of general, but it might mean, (like), go out to dinner, to a movie, and then out dancing, or maybe to (like) a play, just basically going out in the city. 「出去城裡」就像去約會，它並不具體，它有點籠統，但它可能意味著，（例如）出去吃飯，去看電影，然後出去跳舞，或者也許去（就像）一場戲，基本上只是在城裡出去。 (Um) it could mean a lot of different things. （嗯）這可能意味著很多不同的事情。

Lindsay:

Yeah, exactly. Just to go out. 只是為了出去。

Gabby:

And you could be doing (like) several different things in the same night. 你可能會在同一個晚上做幾件不同的事情。

Lindsay:

(Mm-hm). Yeah.

Gabby:

Just to have a good time. 只是為了玩得開心。

Lindsay:

Yeah.

Gabby:

Awesome

Lindsay:

All right.

Gabby:

So let's repeat these phrases before we end here. 因此，在結束之前讓我們重複這些短語。 The first one was ‘catch a movie.' Lindsay:

And then the next one was ‘perfect match.' 然後下一個是“完美匹配”。 Gabby:

The next one ‘hard to get.' 下一個「很難得到」。

Lindsay:

And the last one, ‘out on the town.' [Instrumental]
