Sian
Hello and welcome to Authentic Real English from BBC Learning English. I'm Sian.
大家好,我是冯菲菲。
Sian
What on earth are you looking for, ? Why are you taking everything out of your bag?
I'm just looking for a stamp. 我记得我的包里有一张邮票,可怎么就不见了呢?
Sian
A stamp? What do you want a stamp for?
I've written a letter to my family and I want to get it in the post before midday.
Sian
You've written a letter? That's a bit old-school isn't it?
'Old-school'? Who are you calling 'old-school'? I'm younger than you!
Sian
Yeah but writing letters is quite old-school, you know – it's a bit old-fashioned. Most people just email or send instant messages nowadays.
Yes, but it's so nice to get a real letter in the post! Old-school 这个表达近些年使用频率很高,在英式英语里,old-school 多被用来描述以往常见的事情或人,而且强调事情或人的观念、行为比较传统和老派。咱们先来听几个例句。
Examples
Woah! That haircut is so old-school!
You want to go roller-skating tonight? Man, that's so old-school!
Our new teacher is a bit old-school in his approach, but he always gets good results.
这么说,old-school 的事情都是不好的了?
Sian
No, it doesn't have to be. It can also be used as a compliment – to talk about something from the past that you admire. Or to describe something you feel nostalgic about.
其实,在现代英语里,年青人更多地用 old-school 来描述曾经发生或流行过的,令人羡慕的往事,或令人怀旧的事情。
Examples
I love your new coat – it's so old-school!
Look at these old-school computer games, aren't they awesome?!
Exactly, I think it's a good thing to be old-school. If only I could find that stamp.
Sian
Why don't you just fax it?
Well, that really would be old-school, Sian. Get with the times!
Sian
Hmmm.
