有没有遇到过这样的人:拿着手机在地铁里打电话,声音还特别大,搞得旁边的人想不听都不行。现在才知道,这样的人全世界都有,而且他们有名字的哦,叫做stage-phoner。
A person who engages in stage-phoning is someone who talks loudly on their mobile in a deliberate attempt to attract the interest and attention of people around them. Such individuals appear to be behaving as if they were giving a performance, with the mobile as a theatrical prop, hence the use of the word stage.
Stage-phoning(演戏式通话)指一个人用手机打电话很大声,故意想要吸引旁边人的关注。这些人打电话时候的行为就好像在表演一样,把手机当作道具,所以才会用stage这个词来表示。
The derived noun stage-phoner has been coined to describe these types, who in American English are sometimes also referred to by the rather derogatory term cell (phone) jerk. We meet stage-phoners at every street corner, waiting room or café.
由此衍生的stage-phoner就指进行演戏式通话的人,在美式英语中还有一个更具贬义的词cell (phone) jerk(手机傻冒)来形容这些人。在街角、等候室或者咖啡馆都会有他们的身影。
