BBC地道英语:Oops! 感叹词:惊讶

2012-02-08来源:

Diarmuid: Hello and welcome to Authentic Real English from BBC Learning English. I’m Diarmuid.

Feifei: 大家好,我是冯菲菲。在地道英语里你会学到英国人日常生活中常用到,而且通常在字典和课本里找不到的单词和短语。

Diarmuid: That’s right. Feifei, could you pass me my cup of tea please?

Feifei: Sure. Here you are… Oops! Oh, I’m so sorry I’ve dropped it. 我刚刚没拿好茶杯,所以把茶洒了一地。唉!

Diarmuid: No! My tea is all over the floor!

Feifei: I’m really sorry Diarmuid.

Diarmuid: Never mind. It’s only a cup of tea. And anyway, something good has come out of this accident.
 

Feifei: What’s that?

Diarmuid: You have already introduced today’s new word: oops!

Feifei: Oops. O.O.P.S. Oops. Oops. 这是一个感叹词,表示惊讶或遗憾。当我们范了一个小错误是,比方说像刚才把茶洒了一地,或是在电脑上打字敲错了一个字母,这种时候我们就用 oops.

Oops!

Diarmuid: Yes, whenever you make a small mistake such as knocking something over, you can say the word oops.

Example

A: Be careful moving that pile of books.

B: Oops!

A: Now look! Those books are all over the place.

B: Don’t worry. I’ll soon pick them up.

Feifei: 不过要记住这个词一般只适用于犯小错误的时候。

Diarmuid: Yes, if you use oops when something serious has happened, it could appear that you are not taking the situation seriously.

Feifei: Are there any other words in English that we can use instead of oops?

Diarmuid: Of course, there are always alternatives in English. Some people say whoops instead of oops.

Feifei: Whoops.

Diarmuid: And some people might even say whoops-a-daisy, although that is a little old-fashioned now.

Feifei: Well it’s the end of the programme. Remember to listen to more Real Authentic English… oops! I got the name of the programme wrong!

Diarmuid: Whoops-a-daisy! I think you meant Authentic Real English from the BBC.
