“黄色”并非yellow

未命名 · 2019-02-19

中国人形容跟性有关的不雅内容时,都会用黄色来形容,如黄色笑话、黄书等等。但英文中,论到用颜色来形容性,可不是用黄色,那用什么呢?用蓝色''blue''

例:

I found the kids watching a blue movie onthe video last night. (昨晚我发现孩子们在影碟机上看黄片。)

Her jokes are too blue for most audiences. (对大部分观众来说,她讲的笑话太黄了。)

除了''blue'',还能用什么词来形容黄色呢?

1. obscene: obscene words orpictures are about sex and are very offensive

例:

obscene photographs(淫秽照片)

He made an obscene gesture. (他比划了个不雅的手势。)

LadyChatterley's Lover was banned as an obscene book. (《查太莱夫人的情人》是被禁的黄色书刊。)

He was charged with smuggling obscenematerials into the UK. (他被控向英国输入淫秽制品。)

He was accused of making obscene phone calls. (= calls from anunknown person saying obscene things )(他被控电话性骚扰。)

2. dirty: dirty books, jokes, filmsetc. are about sex - use this especially to show that you think these areunpleasant

备注:''dirty''是较口语化的用法。

例:

They just sit around telling dirty jokesit'svery boring. (他们就这么围坐在一起讲黄色笑话,真无聊。)

He used to keep a collection of dirty bookshidden under his bed. (他曾经在床底下藏了一堆黄书。)

Say something dirty. (说点有挑逗性的话。)

He has a dirty mind. (他满脑子想的都是那些龌蹉的事。)

She looked at me as if I had said a dirtyword. (她那样看着我,好像我讲了什么脏字一样。)

3. indecent: clothes that areindecent are not covering enough of your body; actions or movements that areindecent are sexual, but in a way many people think is not pleasant oracceptable

例:

indecent photos(艳照)

You can't wear that dress to the dinnerparty - it's positively indecent! (你别穿这条裙子去晚宴,太暴露了!)

Models were forced into all sorts ofindecent poses for the camera. (模特们拍照时被迫摆出各种挑逗人的姿势。)

4. lewd: lewd remarks or behaviorshow that the person saying them or doing something is thinking about sex, andthey are usually offensive

例:

Although his jokes were a little lewd, healways made us laugh. (他讲的笑话虽然有点黄,但每次都能逗得我们笑。)

He made lewd remarks to the woman at thebar. (他对酒吧里有位女士出言轻佻。)

5. filthy: showing or describingsexual acts in a very offensive way

例:

filthy movie/joke(黄色电影、黄色笑话)

6. off-color: jokes, stories,remarks etc. that are off-color talk about sex in a way that is not acceptablein a particular situation

例:

He occasionally tells an off-color joke,but his image is practically that of a saint. (他偶尔讲一两个黄色笑话,但他实际上人很好。)

7. smut: books, stories, films etc.that are about sex - use this when you strongly disapprove of this

例:

学习提升英语的,还可以试试以下几个方面,我认为还是很有帮助的

1、加强英语的词汇量和语法方面的知识,这是基础。

2、多朗诵一些脍炙人口的英文,最好是会背诵,培养语感。

3、听你喜欢的英语歌曲,还有看欧美电影,保持兴趣的同时学到口语。

4、若有机会的话,跟老外多说英语。比如现在的网上英语学习就可以和外教一对一进行学习和试听。
