口语秘技

1.Hi!What's up,buddy?
  What'cha been doing?
  How ya' been?
应用场景：行走之间朋友同事见面打招呼一般不会说：How do you do？甚至很少说：How are you？而最常用的就是：Hi! What's up,buddy?buddy？在美国俚语中表示“老兄”，是一种极为亲切的称呼。在学校中您可能学过第一和第二句，可能就没学到最重要最常用的第三句。所以别忘了下回和友人见面说：Hi!What's up,buddy？
同样，在邂逅久违的老友时，美国人还经常用到另两句问候语：What'cha been doing？How ya'been?what'cha(美俚)=what have you;how ya'=how have you.

2.I'm fine.
应用场景：当别人向你问候时：How ya'been？你可以这样回答：I'm fine.

据说“Hi!What's up,buddy?”在黑人中很流行。
Hi!What's up,Kitty?and What'cha been doing?

这些话只能自言自语的练习。伤脑筋啊

I don't think so. You have great condition.
You work in an I&E corp. and there must be many colleagues in your office whose oral English is good.
You can talk to them, I mean, use all these simple expressions.

潘骁

hehe..."If I could, I surely would".They would call me madman.
I have attempted to do that.But I failed.You know they would like to talk with me in Chinese.why?I don't know.But There are lots of place to drill speaking English in Beijing.Such as People University of China,Worker stadium...

据说“Hi!What's up,buddy?”在黑人中很流行。
Hi!What's up,Kitty?and What'cha been doing?

I often hear of "Buddy" when I watch DVD~~~~~~~~~

潘骁

Yes,There is a question.Can I use the words "Buddy" to call a girl?What I mean is whether the word can be used between male & female?

KittyJ

Basically, I think this word is specially applied btw men.
[美俚]解释为“老兄”、“伙计”
Do you think it's proper to call a girl?

潘骁

You are right,Yes we should call a girl "honey"[em03]
