介绍:
释义: Flightmare: F L I G H T M A R E Flightmare refers to an unpleasant experience during air travel. A blend of the words 'flight' and 'nightmare'. flightmare(航班噩梦)指不愉快的飞行旅途,这个词是flight(航班)和nightmare(噩梦)的合成词。 Flightmares go well beyond the usual perils of airline travel such as crowded seats, lost luggage and food not fit for a dog. A flightmare usually involves lost money, lost opportunities (such as missing a graduation or a funeral) and lost dignity. “航班噩梦”所指的并不是飞行途中所遇到的座位拥挤、行李丢失及食物不佳等平常的问题,而是诸如钱财丢失、机会错失(错过毕业典礼或亲人葬礼)以及尊严丧失等严重的意外事件。 I hope everybody would be lucky enough to avoid the flightmares. And I’m gonna use some examples to show you guys how to use this slang. 举例: 当飞机晚点5个小时,而你因此失去了观看你家idol演唱会的机会 你会说 The flight was delayed and I arrived at the concert 5 hours late, what a flightmare! Actually, this slang is pretty easy to use, just think of it as a regular noun to describe a horrible, unpleasant flight. 实际上呢,这个俚语还是挺容易运用的,只要把它单纯地当做一个名词来描述一次糟糕的飞行旅途就好了。 I hope you guys can all remember the meaning of ‘flightmare’ and master it just like eating a piece of cake. And FYI, wish everyone would be lucky enough to avoid the accidents and flightmares. 希望大家都能够轻轻松松地牢牢记住这个组合单词的意义和用法,另外呢, 我希望大家都是幸运的, 不会再有这样糟糕的经历。
