口语：“卖萌”怎么说？

　　口语：卖萌怎么说？

　　Jessica在北京学汉语，她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教她。今天是小北要问的：摆臭脸。

　　XB: Jessica，今天我可是太丢人了!

　　Jessica: What happened?

　　XB: 我在图书馆里戴着耳机听电脑里的音乐，结果发现大家都在皱着眉头看我，最后图书管理员过来说，请你把音乐关掉!原来我的耳机没插牢，音乐声都跑出来了!

　　Jessica: Oh! Thats why people were mean mugging you!

　　XB: 啊?什么意思?

　　Jessica: To mean mug someone means to give someone an angry look.

　　XB: 啊，mean mug someone就是冲某人摆臭脸。I was wondering why everyone in the library was mean mugging me!

　　Jessica: You can also use the phrase to give someone an evil eye. It also means to glare at someone with a lot of anger and hatred.

　　XB: I see. Give someone an evil eye就是恨恨地瞪着别人。那天我在银行，someone cut in line. Oh, you should have seen the evil eye everybody gave him!

　　Jessica: 在银行插队被人瞪?活该!

　　XB: I agree! 对了，话说今天我学习了一天，发觉我的电脑实在太慢了，我打算跟我爸张口，让他送我一台新的!

　　Jessica: Didnt your Dad just pay for your trip to Hong Kong?

　　XB:呵呵，那是没错啦! 不过，我爸特宠我，只要我对他撒撒娇，装装可怜，他什么都答应我!

　　Jessica: Haha! Daddys little girl likes to use the puppy-dog eyes trick!

　　XB: Puppy-dog eyes? 小狗的眼睛?

　　Jessica: 对啊。When you give someone those puppy-dog eyes, you enlarge your eyes over dramatically with a sad face to get whatever you desire.

　　XB: 哦! 就是睁大眼睛，像小狗一样卖萌装可怜!Hey, my little nephew gives me those puppy-dog eyes every time he wants to play with my iPad!

　　Jessica: Did you give it to him?

　　XB: 我才不吃这一套!

　　Jessicaf: So what did he do?

　　XB: 那还用问，he starts mean mugging me!
