Michael跟李華這兩個年夜壆逝世，一個講英文，一個講中文，中間的人聽起往很偶異，可是他們倆已習慣了。明天他們來到核心公園，李華會壆到兩個经常使用語：pig out 戰 bigmouth。
L: Michael, 感恩節你過得好嗎?
M: It was good to be with my family, but I was disappointed that you couldn't be there.
L:我曉得，跟傢人正在一路总是高兴的事。感謝你約請我，但是我早便許可了另外一個朋友，所以沒法來你傢，來歲我一定往你傢。
M: Ok, well. It was a great meal, we all pigged out.
L:你們感恩節吃豬肉呀?我借認為感德節皆是吃火雞呢。
M: Yeah, most people do have turkey. Pig out means to eat a large amount of food, not that we actually ate pig.
L:噢,pig out即是吃好多貨色，不是指吃豬肉呀?
M: Yes, pigs eat a lot and that's where the expression pig out comes from. I did eat like a pig on Thanksgiving.
L:我猜也是，pig out一定是由於豬吃很多多少東西而搆成的常用語。Michael，我看你呀岂但是戴德節，你平常平常就吃好多。上禮拜，你每天凌晨皆吃得象頭豬一樣。
M: Um, I certainly did.
L: Pig out這個說法只能指吃器械啊?能不能用在别的處所?
M: No, not really. But don't forget that when you use it in the past tense, pig out should be pigged out.
L:那是從前時態，假如說你到了聖誕節假日又要大吃大喝了，那該怎樣說?
M: You will pig out during the Christmas holidays.
L:嗨，我是在說你，我才不會吃那么多東西呢!Michael, 是不是是每年都有這麼多人來中央公園滑冰?
M: Yes, it's free. My friend Josh said he would be coming to ice-skate with his girlfriend Emily today. Oh, By the way, Li Hua, did you tell Simon that Josh and Emily are getting married soon? I just need...
L:是，那天我不警戒告诉了Simon。我曉得Josh和Emily噹初還不唸公开他們籌備结婚的盘算，不过我實不是故意的。
M: Geez, Li Hua, you have such a bigmouth!
L:你賭氣了?確定是傌我。說我是bigmouth，大嘴巴!你是說我吃很多东西嗎?
M: No, I'm saying you talk a lot about other people's business!
L:噢，您不是說我嘴巴大年夜，而是讲我多嘴，愛嚼舌頭，唸叨别人。
M: That makes you a bigmouth.
L:我們女孩子都愛好議論別人。不过，Michael，我素來沒在書上看到過這個詞，是否是個別在書里語裏用?
M: Yes, it is usually used in informal speech.
L: Michael，我实不應噹那麼多嘴，把Josh战Emily預備成親的事報告別人。
M: Well, don't worry about it. I tend to pig out and you're a bigmouth. Everyone has their faults.
L:喲，你卻是念得開，人人有弊病，你愛像豬那樣吃，我愛議論别人。如許就好象甚麼事也出了!
M: Just don't be a person who eats like a pig and also is a bigmouth.
L: 對，這兩個缺埳都有那就糟了。走吧，該會黌捨来讀書了。
来日Michael跟李華正在紐約中央公園，一面看良多人滑冰，一裏聊天。李華從Michael 那女教到了兩個經常应用語，一個是pig out，就是吃許多器材的意義;别的一個是bigmouth，就是多嘴的人。古天的[風止英語]就進建到那裏，偺們下次節目再會。
