知道怎么用英语讲:大便,小便,放屁吗?<br><br>   一名中国留学生初到美国,在机场找厕所,问老外:「Where is W.C.?」老外听不<br>懂。一名中国太太到医院生产,洋护士问她:「Did you have a bowel movement?」<br>她却听不懂。还有人学了几十年的英语,还不晓得英语里的「大便」、「小便」、「放<br>屁」真正应该怎么说…… <br><br>至于性毛病,更是老中难于启齿、欲语还羞的尴尬。见到洋医生,窘迫万分,不知如何<br>开口才是,真有「犹抱琵琶半遮面」的感受。 <br><br>以下为一些「禁忌」(taboo)的美语之整理。毕竟这些都是咱们日常生活的一部分,<br>说不定有一天这些「禁忌」之语还能「派上用场」呢! <br><br>厕所 <br>在美国一般都叫rest room或bath room(男女厕均可)或分别叫做 men‘s room 或 <br>ladies‘ room(=powder room),不过在飞机上,则叫 lavatory,在军中又叫 <br>latrine。至于 W.C.(water closet)仍是过去英国人用的,在美国,几乎没有人使用<br>。 <br>解小便 <br>最普通的说法是 to urinate(名词是 urination),如果去看病,护士为了化验小便<br>,就会给你一个杯子说:「Will (could) you urinate in this cup?」医生或许也<br>会问:「Do you have trouble urinating?」=Do you have difficulty voiding?(<br>小便有困难吗?) <br><br>此外,还有其他的说法:to piss = to take a piss = to take a leak = to void <br>= to empty。 例如: <br><br>I need to piss = I have to take a leak. <br>How often do you get up at night to void?(晚上起床小便几次?) <br><br>此外,john(j 小写时,不是男人名字)是 bath room 或 toilet 的意思(也叫 <br>outhouse),这通常是指在户外工作场地所使用的临时或流动性厕所(有时前面也加 <br>portable 一字)。不过也有老外把家里的厕所叫做 john。 例如: <br><br>There are several (portable) johns in the construction site.(在建筑场地有<br>几个临时厕所。) <br>He went to the john a few minutes ago.(他在几分钟前上了厕所。) <br>The manual labours have to use (portable) johns during their working hours.<br>(劳动者在工作时间内需要使用流动性厕所。) <br><br><br>不过,小孩多半用 to pee 。例如: <br><br>The boy needs to pee. <br><br>然而,「小便检查」又叫做 urine test,因为这里的 urine 是化验的样品(<br>specimen)。 例如: <br><br>Do I need a urine test? <br><br>注意:to piss off 是片语,又是指对人生气或对事物的不满。不过这是不礼貌的片语<br>,少用为妙。 例如: <br><br>He pissed me off. = He made me angry. <br>He always pisses off (at) the society.(对社会不满) <br><br>如果「小便」有毛病,也可以告诉医生说: <br>My urine is cloudy and it smells strong.(有浊尿,味道很重) <br>I have pus (或air)in urine.(尿有泡沫) (pus = cloudy; air = bubble) <br>I dribble a little urine after I have finished urinating.(小便后还会滴滴答<br>答。)(即失禁毛病) <br>I am passing less urine than usual.(小便的量比平时少) <br>解大便 <br>一般是用 to make(或 have)a bowel movement 或 to take a shit。如果看病,医<br>生常问:「Do you have regular bowel movement?」(大便正常吗?)(说得斯文些<br>,就是「大肠在转动」) <br><br>此外,还有其他的说法: to defecate =to discharge excrement(或 feces)=to <br>take feces (或 faeces)。 例如: <br><br>The patient needs to take a shit. (=to make a bowel movement) <br><br>不过,小孩多半是用 to make a poo poo 或 to make a BM. 。 例如: <br><br>The boy had a stinky BM.(大便奇臭。) <br><br>但是「大便检查」倒叫做 stool exam,因为 stool 也是一种化验的样品。 例如: <br><br>The doctor has to exam his stool.(医生要检查他的大便。) <br>放屁 <br>在美语里最常用的是 to expel gas 或 to fart 或 to make (或 pass)gas。 例如<br>: <br><br>医生有时问:「How often do you expel(或 make 或 pass)gas?」(你放屁的次数<br>很多吗?) <br>Is the gas expelled by belching?(是否打嗝后就会放屁呢?)(动词是 belch)<br> <br>He said the more he ate, the more he farted.(吃的愈多,放屁也愈多。) <br>He has passed more gas than usual within the last two days.(过去两天中,他<br>放屁比平常多。) <br>Be careful not to fart in the public.(注意在公共场所不可放屁。) <br><br>至于消化不良,大便不通或拉肚子,也有不同的说法。 例如: <br><br>I have an upset stomach.(消化不良) = I have heartburn. = I have <br>indigestion <br><br>注意:Heartburn 是指胃不舒服,不是「心痛」(heartache) <br>Something has upset my stomach for two weeks.(胃不舒服有两星期了。) <br>He has(persistent)constipation.(或 irregularity)(他经常便秘。) 或 <br>He has been unusually constipated.(便秘很反常。)或 <br>He is having problem with irregularity.(或 constipation); 或 He has no <br>bowel movement for the past few days. <br>He has bouts of diarrhea.=He is having trouble with diarrhea.(他拉了一阵肚<br>子。) <br>He can see trace of blood and pus or mucus in his stool(或 bowel movement)<br>(大便时可看到血丝和粘膜。) <br><br>补充:He got pissed on head 他很生气。(想想别人在你头上撒尿是啥感觉?哈哈)<br> <br>ee or poo ? 拉屎还是尿尿?这个也是个习惯用语啊:) <br><br>
