实用口语:在美国点披萨的时候要这么说(在线收听) |
1. PLAIN OR CHEESE? 1、原味还是芝士?
Plain meaning without toppings is New York-area vernacular while outside New York such a pizza would be referred to as cheese.
在纽约地区方言里,用plain(原味)一词不加馅料的披萨;纽约之外,说这种披萨则要用cheese(芝士)一词。
2. PIECE OR SLICE?
2、一块还是一片?
Speaking of slices, in New York you can say, "I'm getting a slice," and people will know what you're talking about. However, elsewhere "piece of pizza" is preferred, and if you say "slice," you'll need to qualify it with "of pizza."
说到是一片片的披萨(slices),在纽约你可以说I'm getting a slice(我要片披萨),大家就知道你什么意思了。但在其它地方,你要说piece of pizza(一片披萨),你要是说slice(一片)的话,就要说清楚是“披萨”。
3. PIE OR PIZZA?
3、派还是披萨?
While to east coasters, it might feel perfectly natural to say "pie" when referring to a whole pizza, not so for those in other regions. "Pie" was described by west coasters as "pretentious" and "only something someone in a movie would say".
对于东边沿海地区人而言,谈到整个披萨时说pie(派)再自然不过了,但对于其它地区却不是这样。pie一词被西部沿海地区人称为“装腔作势”,而且是“只有电影里的人会这么说”。

4、披萨馆、比萨商店还是披萨餐馆?
Pizza place was the most popular, followed by pizza parlor and, a close third, pizzeria.
pizza place(披萨店儿)的说法最普遍,接着是pizza parlor(披萨馆),紧随其后的是pizzeria(披萨餐馆)。

5、披萨尖儿
Tip sag refers to when the tip of one's pizza slice droops down.
披萨尖儿指一片披萨顶端馅料掉下的地方。
6. CHICAGO-STYLE
6、芝加哥风味
Chicago does have its own thin-crust pizza -- described as crisp and crunchy like a cracker -- which, some say, is even more popular than deep dish or stuffed.
芝加哥风味也确实有薄脆款披萨,松脆有嚼劲,有如士力架一般;有些人说甚至要比要比深盘披萨和卷边芝加哥披萨更受欢迎。
7. PARTY-CUT OR PIE-CUT?
7、切成方格还是切成块?
Party-cut means cutting in a grid, while pie-cut means cutting in triangles or wedges.
party-cut(派对装)是指切成方格,而pie-cut(派式切法)是切成三角形或者稧形。
8. APIZZA
8、披萨薄饼
Perhaps less well-known, although no less delicious, is New Haven-style pizza, known in local vernacularas apizza.

10. ALL-DRESSED PIZZA
10、盛装披萨
All-dressed is Montreal slang for "everything" on it. The all-dressed pizza comes with mushrooms, green peppers, and pepperoni, not literally "everything" but still a lot.
all-dressed(盛装)一词是蒙特利尔俚语,意为“应有尽有”。盛装披萨有蘑菇、青椒和意大利辣香肠,也不是“一应俱全”,但料也不少。 |
