Sian                                          

Hi, I am Sian.

Are you OK, Sian? 

Sian

Yes, of course I am! Can we just get on with the programme?!

Um, Sian, have you had your breakfast today?

Sian

No, I haven't. I overslept and then the bus was late and, uh, it's just not been a good day so far!

没吃早饭可不行，我觉得你还是先吃点东西再工作吧。Here, have this chocolate bar.

Sian

Oh, sorry. I know I'm a bit hangry this morning. I do tend to get moody when I don't eat. My husband's always complaining about it!

Hangry? Hangry 是什么？你是说 angry 吧？

Sian

No, 'hangry'. 'Hangry' describes someone who is angry – or irritable – as a result of being hungry. Like me today – I'm feeling a bit annoyed because I haven't eaten breakfast yet!

You certainly are! Hangry 这个词是由“angry 生气”和“hungry 饥饿”组合而成的；用于描述某人本来已经很饿了，但由于其它各种不顺感觉饿上加怒，特别想发火。

Sian

Yes, that's right. Let's hear a few examples.

Examples

A: This food is taking forever to arrive. I'm not coming to this restaurant again.

B: Oh dear, someone's getting hangry! Let's get you some food quickly! 

My boyfriend is a nightmare whenever he misses a meal; he gets so hangry!

People tend to get a bit hangry when their blood sugar level drops. 

Interesting. 话说我可从来没有 hangry 过，I'm always very chilled.

Sian

Is that right, ? You know, I'm feeling much happier after eating that chocolate bar. Shall we do the programme again? I feel ready now.

No! Come on, that will do. I'm starving!

Sian

Oh dear, it seems like you're a bit hangry too, ! Let's get you to the cafe now.

Good idea! Let's go.
