OMG

白洁最近和朋友们出去玩,总是"落单"!所以我们今天就来看看怎么用美语口语说"落单-,多出我一个"。

Third Wheel --- Third Wheel在美语中指那个多出来,碍手碍脚的人,也就是"电灯泡"!

I do not like going out with my couple friends. Being the third wheel sucks!

我不喜欢和我的情侣朋友出去玩。做电灯泡最讨厌了!

But Ted in How I Met Your Mother has been a third wheel for 8 years. He doesn't seem to mind at all!

但是老爸老妈浪漫史里的Ted已经做了8年的电灯泡了!他好像从不介意。

A: Hey 白洁 wanna go to the movies with me?

A: 嘿,白洁,想和我去看电影么?

B: Yes! I would love to! I heard the Great Gatsby is really.........

A:......and my boyfriend?

B: 好啊!我愿意!据说伟大的盖茨比非常。。

A: 还有我男朋友?

B: I refuse to be the third wheel!!

我拒绝当电灯泡!

最近还流行一个说法,就是:

Fifth Wheel --- 同样是电灯泡的意思,但是和两对情侣在一起的电灯泡

Being a third wheel is bad enough. Being a fifth wheel is a total nightmare!

做一对情侣的电灯泡就够惨了。做两对情侣的电灯泡那简直就是场恶梦啊!

A: Daniel just asked me if he could tag along our double date to the Bruno Mars concert.

Daniel刚才竟然问我他能不能跟着我们的四人约会一起去看Bruno Mars的演唱会。

B:Can't he take a hint? He's gonna be the fifth wheel and that is just awkward.

他真是不动脑子。他去当电灯泡,那多尴尬啊!

The Odd One Out --- 落单,剩下一个人

A: The cab only fits four people. But we have five. Baijie, you are the odd one out. Maybe you can share a cab with Melissa and Ryan.

出租车只坐得下4个人,但是我们有5个。白洁,看来你落单了。要不你跟Melissa-和Ryan打一辆车吧。

B: Aww man! I don't wanna be the third wheel! I'll get my own cab.

真讨厌,我才不要做电灯泡呢。我自己打一辆车算了。
