日常生活一些难于启齿的英语 2

此外,还有其他的说法:to piss = to take a piss = to take a leak = to void = to empty。 例如:

* I need to piss = I have to take a leak.

* How often do you get up at night to void?(晚上起床小便几次?)

此外,john(j 小写时,不是男人名字)是 bath room 或 toilet 的意思(也叫 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 portable 一字)。不过也有老外把家里的厕所叫做 john。 例如:

* There are several (portable) johns in the construction site.(在建筑场地有几个临时厕所。)

* He went to the john a few minutes ago.(他在几分钟前上了厕所。)

* The manual labours have to use (portable) johns during their working hours.(劳动者在工作时间内需要使用流动性厕所。)

不过,小孩多半用 to pee 。例如:

* The boy needs to pee.

然而,「小便检查」又叫做 urine test,因为这里的 urine 是化验的样品(specimen)。 例如:  

* Do I need a urine test?

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,少用为妙。 例如:

* He pissed me off. = He made me angry.

* He always pisses off (at) the society.(对社会不满)

如果「小便」有毛病,也可以告诉医生说:

* My urine is cloudy and it smells strong.(有浊尿,味道很重)

* I have pus (或air)in urine.(尿有泡沫) (pus = cloudy; air = bubble)

* I dribble a little urine after I have finished urinating.(小便后还会滴滴答答。)(即失禁毛病)

* I am passing less urine than usual.(小便的量比平时少)
