1. kick ass 了不起
A: Wow, you fixed my computer in less than 10 minutes. You’re good.
A: 哇! 你不到十分鐘就把我的計算機修好了呀! 你很棒!
B: Yep. I just kick ass.
B: 是的! 我就是厲害!
“kick ass” 除了字面上的「踢屁股」外，還有「厲害、打敗」的意思。當「踢屁股」時，比如某人放你鴿子，你很氣，就可以說: “I’m going to kick his ass.” ***我得踢他的屁股***。當「厲害」用時，就像上面例句一樣用。”kick ass” 還可作「打敗某人的意思」。比如某人一向在某方面比你強，終於有一天你比他厲害了，你就可以說:”Hahaha…I kicked your ass.”。覺得 “ass” 太難聽的人，就用 “butt” 吧!
2. kiss ass 拍馬屁
A: Mary, I’m sorry for cheating on you before. Do you see any chance that we can get back together?
B: I don’t know, but you can kiss my ass.
B: 不知道，不過你可以親我的屁屁***巴結我***。
「親屁屁」好象不大衛生吧! 不過人家就是這樣用，就照著「親」吧!
“cheat” 除了作弊外，還有「不忠實」的意思。
3. XYZ 檢查你的拉鍊
Hey, man. XYZ.
老兄啊! 檢查一下你的拉鍊吧。
“XYZ” 是 “Check your zipper.” 的意思。在美國，填表選項時多用打「X」來表示***臺灣則用打勾表示***。這個選項的動作就叫”Check”, 也就是這裡的 XYZ 的X所代表的。Y 是 Your, Z 就是 Zipper 囉!
4. Hit the road. 上路了。
A: Do you want to come in for some tea?
A: 你要不要進來喝個茶呢?
B: No. I’m running late. I really need to hit the road.
B: 不了。我快遲到了，得上路了。
“running late” 是快遲到了的意思。
“Hit the road” 的 “hit” 有「去」的意思。好比某人每週去健身房三次，你就可以說 “He hits the gym three times a week.”。
“I really need to hit the road.” 還可以用說成”I really need to get going.”。
5. hang out 和朋友在一起
A: I don’t know what is going on lately. Jack seems to curse a lot these days.

6. click ***兩人***合得來
I really like talking to her. I think we two really click.
我很喜歡和她說話。我覺得我們兩個蠻合得來的。

A: Excuse me. I have to catch some Zs.
A: 抱歉! 我想小睡一下。
B: I thought you just woke up. Sleepy head.
B: 我以為你才剛睡醒。愛睡蟲。
漫 畫裡的人睡覺，不是都畫”Z,Z,Z…”來表示嗎? 這裡的 “catch some Zs” 就是這樣來的。”I have to catch some Zs.” 也可以說”I have to take a nap.” 或 “I need to snooze.”。
9. take a dump 上大號
A: Would you mind closing the door? I’m trying to take a dump here.
A: 你可不可以把門關起來呢? 我正在上大號。
B: Well, learn to lock the door next time.
B: 那麼下次學會把門鎖起來吧!
“dump” 是「丟掉」的意思，「丟」什麼不必我解釋了吧?
「我要上廁所」***大小號都一樣*** 可以說 “I need to use the restroom.” 或簡單地說 “I need to go.”。

B: 什麼!
A: Got you!

“Get you” 是「***騙、嚇、捉弄…***到你了吧!」的意思。油畫班上有一個同學有一次想捉弄我，趁我正要把畫具收到櫃子裡時忽然把櫃子的門關起來，想趁機把我的手夾住， 結果我閃得快，使他的惡計失敗，我便哈哈的對他說:”Haha.. You didn’t get me.”。
