Lesson 1 称赞

1. That's cool!

很好, 很棒!

Cool 这个字在英文里的意思就是「很好, 很棒」的意思. 不管在任何时候我们要对其它人表现赞同时我们都可以说 "That's cool!" 或是单说, "Cool!" 例如别人说, "I'm going to graduate this year." 你就可以赶紧接一句, "That's cool!"别人说, "We're going to win the championship this year." (我们今年要拿冠军了.) 你还是可以说, "That's cool!" 我们可以用 "That's cool." 或"Cool." 来表示对别人的认同. 不过要注意, cool 在美语里跟中文里形容一个人很酷的那个酷不一样. 你说, "He is a cool guy." 时, 不是这个人很「酷」, 而是说这个人「很好、很棒」老美也常常会问, "Are you cool with that?" 意思就是, 「你觉得这样子作好不好?」今天我朋友跟我约好一个时间, 但他临时有事, 必须晚到一个小时, 这时他就可以问我, "Are you cool with that?" 来征求我的认同.

2. Neat!

真是不简单!

Neat 不论在用法上和程度上和 cool 是差不多的, 同样都表现出对别人的肯定和认同. 例如今天我说 "I've taken piano lessens for ten years." (我已经学了十年的钢琴.) 这时候你就可以接, "Neat!" 或 "Cool!" (真是不简单!) 来表示你的敬佩之意.

另外, neat 和 cool 也有「新奇」的意思. 当「新奇」解时这两个字常和 stuff 连用, 表示很新奇又很棒的事物. 你为了吸引别人的注意就可以说, "Check out those neat stuff!" (看看这些很棒的东西.) 这里用 neat 来形容这件东西 (stuff) 不但很新奇而且值得一看. 同样的你也可以说, cool stuff, 例如, "I've just bought some cool stuff." (我刚买了一些很棒的东西.)

3. Good for you.

真替你高兴.

Good 的用法跟 cool 很像, 用来认同或是肯定别人的行为或表现. 例如小孩子跟妈妈说, "I've done my homework." 妈妈就可以跟小孩子说, "Good. Now you can go and play." (很好, 现在你可以出去玩了. ) 或是人家说, "I got an A in that course." (我在那门课里拿了一个 A.) 你就可以表扬她说 "That's good." 我们好朋友之间还可以用, "Good for you." 或是 "Good to hear." 来替对方加油, 打气. 例如好友对你说, "I'm getting married this month." 你就可以说, "Good for you." 或是 "Good to hear." 当你走在路上遇到了朋友, 他对你打招呼, "Hi! How're you doing?" 如果你不希望在打完招呼后再聊上两句的话，我们通常就回答, "Good." 或是 "I'm good." 别人就不会继续追问下去发生了什么事. 当然啦, 如果是你希望别人关心你两句的话, 你就回答, "Bad." 或是 "Not very good." 这样子别人就会关心你一下的.

4. That's great!

真的是很棒!

Great 在口语中指的就是「很好、很棒」. 但 great在程度上比 good 高一级. 所以善用 good 和 great 的区别就可以表现出你的认同对方的程度. 如果是个普通的好友拿了一个 A, 你可以说, "That's good." 就差不多了, 但如果是自己很要好的朋友拿了一个 A, 那就不妨说声, "That's great." 当然, 别人跟你问好时回答, "I'm great." 也是不错的选择. 通常我们心情平平时说, "I'm good." 就可以了, 但如果是心情比较好时, 就不妨说, "I'm great." 不过要注意, 当老美说 "That's great!" 时有时候是在说反话喔! 例如正在室外打网球打得正高兴时, 突然倾盆大雨, 这时你也可以说, "That's great!". 或是本来和同学讲好明天要出去玩, 结果教授突然宣布说明天要考试,你也可以说, "That's great!"

5. Wonderful.

Supplementary material Feb. 2011 太棒了.

Wonderful 在程度上又要比 great 再高一级. 如果我们可以把 great 翻成「很棒」的话, 那 wonderful 就是「太棒了」. 接上一个例子, 如果拿了一个 A 的这个人不但是你很要好的朋友, 还是长得美美的异性朋友, 这时说一句, "Wonderful." 保证可以让人家心花怒放的.

如果是别人对你问好, 你回答 "I'm wonderful." 呢? 这当然表示你今天心花怒放, 走在路上都会唱歌呢! 当然如果别人真的够朋友的话, 一定会再追问你, 今天为什么这么快乐啊? 是什么事情让你心情这么样地好. 记得曾经在一个广播上听到一段主持人和 call-in 进来听众间的对话. 主持人先问, "How are you today?" 听众答, "I am just good." 主持人不太满意, "Just good?" 于是那人就赶紧改口说, "I am great." 没想到主持人还是不满意继续咄咄逼人说, "Just great?" 那人没办法只好说, "I am wonderful." 这时主持人才算真正满意. 不过由这个例子我想大家可以很清楚地看到 good, great 和 wonderful 之间程度上的区别.

6. Incredible!

真是令人难以置信!

Incredible 算是 good/great/wonderful/incredible 这一系列形容词的最高级了. 如果拿登泰山来比喻这一系列的形容词, good 算是登山口吧! 而 great 呢? 充其量不过就是傲来峰了. 再来 wonderful 就己经上到了扇子崖. 而 incredible 当然就是山顶南天门了. 所以如果非要用到 incredible 这个字不同, 就表示这个东西真的是好到让你印象深刻, 令人难以置信. 例如之前提到长得美美的异性朋友, 她不但是只拿了一个 A, 而且是整个学期每门课都拿 A, (straight A's) 那你可能就要说 "That's incredible!" 了. 不过注意一下, 别人跟你问好是不能答说 "I am incredible." 的喔! 因为通常我们说某人, "He is incredible." 指的是某人有过人之处. 所以你如果说自己 incredible 听来有点在自夸的意思. 所以如果是别人问好, 最多我们就讲 "I'm wonderful." 就行啦.

7. The movie is terrific!

这部电影太棒了!

Terrific 在字典里查到有「恐怖、可怕」的意思, 可是在美国几乎没有人用这个字来当作可怕的意思, 基本上, 它就是「太棒了!」的意思. 这个字的等级大概跟 wonderful 差不多. 例如看完电影后别人问你, "Do you like it?" (你喜欢这部电影吗?) 你就可以回答说, "Yes. That movie was terrific!" (是的, 这部电影太棒了!) 再举一个例子, 有一次我去美国著名的 Six Flag 游乐园 (Amusement Park) 搭乘恶名昭彰的自由落体 (Free Fall). 当我们安全降落后, 后面的老美问他儿子, "What did you think?" (你觉得如何?) 那个小鬼就说了, "Terrific!" (太棒了!)

还有另一个单字 fabulous 不论在意思上和用法上跟 terrific 都十分地接近, 都是用来形容「非常棒的」. 例如你看到你的好友今天气色极佳, 不妨跟他说声, "You look terrific today!" 或是 "You look fabulous today!" (你今天看来很棒!)

8. Awesome!

太棒了!

Awesome 和 terrific 一样, 在英汉字典里都有可怕的意思, 但事实上 awesome 和 terrific 百分之百就只有很棒的意思, 老美常用来形容可怕的单字是 awful/terrible, 请勿和 awesome/terrific 混淆了. 用法上通常老美只单讲 awesome 一个字, 例如别人问你, "How do you like my new house?" (你觉得我的新家如何?) 你就可以竖起大姆指说. "Awesome!" 或是人家问你, "What do you think of that game?" (你觉得那场比赛如何?) 这时你也可以说 "Awesome!" 表示那场比赛真的是很精采. 在日常生活的运用上, wonderful, terrific, fabulous, awesome 跟另一个单字 excellent 基本上都是可以互换使用的. 例如你刚从欧洲旅游回来, 别人问你, "How's your trip?" (旅程如何啊?) 这时你的选择就有很多种了. 你不但可以回答, "Wonderful!"、"Terrific!" "Fabulous!" 还可以回答, "Awesome!" 、 "Excellent!" 这几个字不论在意义上和程度上都不多.

9. She's so pretty!

Supplementary material Feb. 2011 她真漂亮!

Pretty 和 beautiful 都是用来形容「美丽、漂亮」的人，常用到的词汇. 例如我们看到一个美丽的女生, 也可以称赞她, "She's pretty." 或是 "She's beautiful." 这些都是大家一开始学英文就应该会的用法. 但是一般人不知道 pretty 只能用于形容人和状态 (situation), 并不能像 beautiful 还可以用来修饰风景 (见 Collins Cobuild 字典). 所以当我们来到一个风光明媚的地方时, 可以说. "What a beautiful place!" 或是 "How beautiful!" 但是不能说, "What a pretty place." 另外 pretty 还有一种用法各位比较不熟悉, 就可以用来形容状态 (situation). 例如当别人有精采的表现或演出时, 特别是在运动比赛时，例如棒球赛时打了一只全垒打或是篮球赛里盖了一个大火锅. 这时我们就可以说, "That's pretty." 或是, "That's beautiful."

10. Gorgeous!

太漂亮了!

Gorgeous 也是用来形容「美丽、漂亮」的事物. 上次我去参观纽约大都会博物馆, 逛到一个油画展示厅时, 身边的老美就情不自禁地喊了一声, "Gorgeous." 虽然 pretty/beautiful 也作「美丽、漂亮」解释, 但在程度上 gorgeous 比 beautiful 跟 pretty 还要再漂亮一点. 例如小美女的话我们就可以说, "She's pretty." 但是大美女的话就可以说 "She's gorgeous." 老美也常会用 gorgeous 来形容美男. 例如, "Her brother is gorgeous. We all like him." (她的哥哥长得很好看, 我们都很喜欢他.) Today’s sentence句型练习
