单词园地「另一半other half」教你怎样用英语称呼你的“那位”

放大字体  缩小字体 发布日期:2011-08-09
核心提示:和朋友聊家常的时候,大家都是怎么称呼自己的另一半呢?“爱人”太正式,“朋友”太隐晦,“那位”特生活,特自然,酸酸甜甜刚刚好。你知道“那位”用英语怎么说吗:)


The other half of your relationship. Your other half is simply your boyfriend, girlfriend, husband or wife.
英语中可以把情侣中的一方,男朋友,女朋友,丈夫或妻子统称为 the other half 。

注意喽,“那位”尤其适用于老夫老妻或是有长期关系的情侣。你想啊,连名字、称谓都省略了,那两人的关系得多熟啊。
You would be more likely to use this for a boyfriend or girlfriend you have been with for a long-time--so it would be someone you are in a long term relationship with.

另一点要注意的是,you usually use it to talk about your other half with someone else。Other half 一定是在和第三者谈话的场合使用。你和自己的“那位”谈话的时候可就别“那位,那位”的叫了。

用法实例:
1
A: So are you coming to Jess' party?
B: Yeah I'll be there. Can I bring my other half?

2
A: So are you going on holiday this year?
B: Yes, me and my other half are going to America to visit some friends for a couple of weeks.

3
A: Well I've got to go--my friend and her other half are staying and we're going out for a meal.
B: I've got to get back to my other half.

先说到这里。我去找我的“那位”my other half,你去找你的“那位”your other half吧。“那位”的说法是不是很实用: )
