The worst has happened!"4. flight risk 有逃离风险的人Chandler又不见了，菲比责备Ross明知道Chanlder是flight risk还跟他玩儿hide and seek. flight risk 这个短语本来是法律用语，律师不同意被告保释会说他是flight risk，意思是被告会坐飞机逃走。在口语里flight risk指会逃离一份工作或一段感情的人。Ross: Uh Phoebe, can I see you for a second?Phoebe: Yeah!(They both go out into the hall.)Phoebe: What’s going on?Ross: Chandler’s gone again!Phoebe: Oh my God!

When I was in High School, he used to come to all of my swim meets dressed as a different Hollywood starlet. Y’know it’s hard enough to be fourteen. You’re skinny. You’re wearing speedos—That your mom promised that you would grow into! And you look up into the stands and there’s your dad cheering you on dressed as Carmen Miranda.

1. tiptoe around 小心翼翼，避免 Phoebe和新男友如胶似漆，但她怕刺激到即将结婚的Monica所以有所收敛。Monica对Phoebe说 it’s okay. You don’t have to tip toe around me.tiptoe这个词的意思是脚尖，用脚尖走。而tiptoe around主要有两个意思：1.做某事小心翼翼的 (to act very cautiously about something )例句：Yet to this day they tend to tiptoe around Muslims as a distinct market segment.而今他们应对穆斯林这个决然不同的市场时总是小心翼翼。2. 避免谈论令人不快的或者有争议的事情(to avoid speaking about a painful or controversial issue)例句：In 1940, Franklin Roosevelt tried to tiptoe around the war question and when that didn't wash, he simply lied about it.1940年，罗斯福想悄悄地规避战争问题。当他这样做瞒不了人时，他干脆说谎。2. pull my finger  逗你玩儿 Chandler在说完和Monica关系多么深厚以后，忽然说pull my finger. 这是一个古老的恶作剧。恶作剧的始作俑者会伸出指头说pull my finger, 如果你真的去拉他的手指，他会忽然放屁。pull my finger 引申为调侃，逗你玩儿，没多大关系这个举动表示Chanlder根本没把刚才的话当回事，Monica当然大为恼火了。Jake: Bye Phoebe.Phoebe: Okay bye. (They kiss.)Jake: All right. Bye. (Backs out the door.)Phoebe: Bye! We said good-bye at the door so as not to flaunt our new love.Monica: Phoebe, it’s okay. You don’t have to tip toe around me. I-I’ve been thinking about it and umm, y’know what? I’m okay about not having that new relationship feeling…Jake:  I miss you already!!Phoebe: (yelling back) I miss you too!!!! Monica: See? That’s what I mean. I mean that, that’s great! But I wouldn’t trade in what I have for that. I mean I’m gonna be with Chandler for the rest of my life, and that’s what makes me happy. (Chandler approaches.) Hey sweetie, come here! Come sit down. Hey Phoebe and I were just talking about how our relationship is deep and meaningful. It really is, don’t you think?Chandler: Oh totally! (Holds up his finger.) Pull my finger.3. yank one's chain 玩弄某人，欺骗某人又一个以爱上Ross来找他改分的学生被拒绝后揭穿了上一个学生也是骗Ross的事实，他对Ross说He’s totally yanking your chain!yank one's chain 玩弄某人，欺骗某人Lewis: Professor Geller?Ross: (turning towards him) Yes Mr. Lewis, how can I help you?Lewis: I know I didn’t do well on my midterms and stuff but, I was kinda hoping you could change my grade.Ross: And why exactly would I do that? (Goes back to writing on the board.)Lewis: Because I’m in love with you.Ross:  What?!Lewis: Yeah, I’m all…in love with you and stuff. So could you change my grade?Ross: No!Lewis: Well why not? You changed Ned’s grade!Ross: Well that’s different! Okay? Because he, he was actually in love with me!Lewis: No he’s not! He’s totally yanking your chain! He’s done this with three other teachers!Ross: What?Lewis: He’s got a girlfriend!Ross: I can’t believe someone would do that for a grade.Lewis: I know! It’s awful. I love you.4. don't sweat it 别担心Monica对于结婚以后就只能忠于伴侣一人这个事情有点焦虑，她想找Phoebe聊聊。Phoebe一听还是这个话题先说don't sweat it.Don’t sweat it 意思是Don’t worry. 别担心！还有一个相似的短语是no sweat = it's a piece of cake. 太简单了。 5. get sth out of one's system 把很想做的事情做了，然后就别再想了ahead get it out of your system. That guy’s cute.get someting out of one's system 字面上意思 “让什么东西离开你的身体”这个表达的实际意思是发泄。或是把很想做的事情做了，以后就不再想了。 例句：He's been talking about skydiving for so long, I'm just glad he's finally going to get it out of his system.Monica: Have you seen Chandler?Phoebe: No. Why?Monica: ‘Cause I just keep thinking about all these things that I’m not gonna have, and it’s freaking me out. I don’t know what to do about it.Phoebe: Okay, don’t sweat it. (Looking around her.) Chandler is nowhere around so go ahead get it out of your system. That guy’s cute. (Points to a guy sitting behind Monica.)6. putting out (女性）轻佻，轻易献身当Phoebe意识到妈妈留给她的那些人生道理都是错的的时候问了Monica一句Does this also mean putting out doesn’t get you love?在这里putting out 是俚语里的粗俗用语vulgar slang 意思是指女性轻佻放荡, 轻易献身。例句：Joe is going to dump his girlfriend because she won't put out for him看来Phoebe的妈妈是告诉她put out是能带来真爱的，所以Monica直接震惊了。Phoebe: All right, I’ve never been engaged and I’ve never really been married, but I can only tell you what my mother told me. Whenever you have doubts or fears or anxieties about a relationship, do not communicate them to your husband.Monica: So I’m not supposed to share my doubts and fears with the guy I’m gonna spend the rest of my life with?Phoebe: That is correct! Yes, you’re supposed to take all of that stuff and put it in a little box in your mind and then lock it up tight.Monica: Your mother told you this?Phoebe: Yes!Monica: The woman that got married a bunch of times and killed herself when you were 13?Phoebe: Oh my God! You’re right! Go! (Monica starts to leave.) Go tell Chandler! Hurry before it’s too late! Wait no! (Monica stops.) Does this also mean putting out doesn’t get you love? (Monica is shocked.)

1. Emmy 艾美奖 Joey说他被提名了，Monica还以为是Emmy，艾美奖。艾美奖是美国电视界最高奖项，1947年在洛杉矶颁出了第一届。美国文化领域四大奖项引领全球，Oscar奥斯卡（电影），Emmy艾美（电视），Grammy格莱美（音乐），Tony托尼奖（音乐舞台剧）Joey: Hey! You guys! You’re not gonna believe this! I just got off the phone with my agent…Phoebe: Oh my God! (Joey looks at her.) I’m sorry, too soon. You go.Joey: Okay. I got nominated for my part on Days of Our Lives!Monica: Joey!Phoebe: Good for you!Monica: Congratulations! Wow! I can’t believe you’re nominated for an Emmy!Joey: No-no.Monica: Oh Soap Opera Digest award!Joey: No! I’m up for a Soapie!2. cut sb some slack 放某人一马，让某人好过点Ross跟一个不及格的学生这段对话很有趣。60分及格这个学生考了7分，还希望老师照顾他一下，说Well maybe you can cut me some slack。slack 就是布的皱折，穿著衣裤时，肘弯处、跨部及膝盖处若没有皱折，就会觉得衣裤很紧不舒服，所以 cut me some slack “多剪一些布给我当皱折”就被引申为“别对我那么严格；让我轻松一点”。3. in the loop 骨干范围学生想要老师给提分的借口五花八门，这次这个学生的借口是I am sort of in love. 当Ross回应That's not my problem的时候，学生说I am in love with you. 这下Ross傻了，说了一句Well, that brings me in the loop a little. 这里的核心短语是 in the loop.  loop 本意是圈或者电路。这个短语中意思是圈子，指圈内人物，具体说是互通重要情报、共同参与决策的一个群体，属于圈内骨干范围。例句：Sometimes they are not even in the loop to get important information.有时候,他们甚至不属于能获悉重要情报的圈内人士。Ross说bring me in the loop 字面上是把我带进了核心决策圈，意思是和我扯上关系了。另外一个常用的短语是 keep sb in the loop, 有最新情况跟某人说一声 相当于keep sb posted/updated.4. turtleneck sweater 套头高领毛衣这个学生在说他喜欢Ross的原因时提到了Ross的turtleneck sweater. Turtleneck sweater 套头高领毛衣，直译是龟脖子毛衣Ross: Mr. Morse I need to talk to you about your mid-term exam, I’m afraid I-I had to fail you.Morse: (shocked) Why?!Ross: Well you need 60% to pass…Morse: What’d I get?Ross: Seven.Morse: That’s not so good.Ross: No-no it’s not. What-what happened there Ned?Morse: Well maybe you can cut me some slack. I’m sort of in love.Ross: Well I’m sorry but, that-that’s really not my problem.Morse: I’m in love with you.Ross: Well that brings me in the loop a little.Morse: You see, that’s why I did so bad on this test. I’m having a hard time concentrating. When you’re up there (Points to the podium) and you’re teaching and your face gets all serious…you look so good. (In a sexy voice) You wear that tight little turtleneck sweater…Ross: Okay! (Walks away from him.) Umm, I uh, I’m your teacher. I’m sorry, you’re-you’re a student and I-and I like women. In spite of what may be written on the backs of some of these chairs.5. kiss and tell  泄露隐私信息Monica想要知道Phoebe约会的细节，Phoebe首先回答是I don't kiss and tell. Kiss and tell 非正式用法，意思是泄露出一些私密的信息，尤其指一手的私密信息Phoebe这里的意思是我是不会向你泄露我的隐私的。 6. speak for itself 非常明显，不言而喻虽然Phoebe说我不会kiss and tell, 但她接下来就撩起衣服说But this hickey speaks for itself. hickey就是吻痕，以前提到过。speak for itself 非常明显，不言而喻俚语：The school's excellent record speaks for itself. 這個學校的聲譽卓著，不言自喻。所以这一句跟Phoebe先前说的I don't kiss and tell形成了鲜明的对比，甚至用到了修辞手法中的pun. Phoebe: Oh hey!Monica: Hey! How’d your date go with Jake?Phoebe: Oh, great! We couldn’t keep our eyes off each other all night and then every once and a while y’know, he’d kinda lean over and stroke my hair and touch my neck. Monica: Okay, stop it Phoebe, you’re getting me all tingly.Phoebe: All I could think of was y’know, "Is he gonna kiss me? Is he gonna kiss me?"Monica: And did he?Phoebe: I’m a lady Monica, I don’t kiss and tell. But this hickey speaks for itself.

Now, this is what you’re looking for! (Holds up a picture of it.) Memorize it! When you locate the dress, blow on these. All right? (She passes out whistles to them.) Three short blasts. When you hear it, come running.Rachel: Okay.Phoebe: Got it.Monica: All right.4. T-zone 额头鼻子下巴T型区Ross在去约会前用了facial，也就是面膜。按照他自己的说法，他有一个oily T-zone.T-zone 额头鼻子下巴这个T型区Joey: (entering) Hey!Ross: Hey!
