Episode 好辣說成 「so hot」!...老外聽了會皺眉!hot/spicy 差別
🎯 這集你會學到: ・spicy=辣 ・hot=燙/熱 ・mild=不辣/溫和 台灣人形容食物辣,常常脫口而出 so hot,但老外聽了只會想到「很燙」,完全 get 不到辣度。 這篇用一段台美朋友在運動酒吧吃美式辣雞翅(buffalo wings)的對話, 教你 spicy(辣)、hot(燙/熱)、mild(不辣)怎麼分清楚,搭配點餐辣度英文與逐字稿,下次點餐不再被誤會。 ▶ 完整逐字稿、重點單字、句型: https://mjenglishclass.com/daily-english/en-hot-vs-spicy ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🗣️ 情境對話 Dialogue 場景:Amy 和美國朋友 Kevin 在運動酒吧邊看比賽邊吃,點了一大盤 buffalo wings(辣雞翅),她咬一口就把辣說成了 hot。 Amy: I just bit into a buffalo wing — wow, it's so hot! (我剛咬了一口辣雞翅——哇,好辣!) Kevin: Hot? Maybe let the plate cool down for a bit. (很燙?那盤子要不要先放涼一點?) Amy: No, I mean it's really spicy, not burning hot. (不是啦,我是說很辣,不是很燙。) Kevin: Oh, got it. I thought the wings were too hot to touch. (喔,了解。我還以為你是說雞翅燙到不能碰。) Amy: In Chinese, spicy just feels like a kind of hot to us. (中文裡,辣本來就給人一種「燙」的感覺。) Kevin: That explains so much. English keeps those two completely separate. (難怪。英文把這兩種感覺分得很清楚。) Amy: So spicy is about the chili kick, not the temperature? (所以 spicy 是辣度,跟溫度沒關係?) Kevin: Exactly. Hot just describes how warm something feels. (沒錯。hot 單純是在講溫度高低。) Amy: Got it. These wings are spicy, but they aren't actually hot. (了解了。這些雞翅是辣,但其實沒有很燙。) Kevin: That sauce looks incredibly spicy. Can you even handle it? (那個醬看起來超辣的。你吃得了嗎?) Amy: I can handle mild spicy, but this looks extra spicy. (微辣我還可以,但這個看起來是特辣。) Kevin: Let's just ask the server for the mild ones instead. (那我們直接跟服務生換微辣的好了。) Amy: Good call. I don't want to sweat through the whole game. (好主意。我可不想看整場比賽都滿頭大汗。) Kevin: Same here. Mild sounds perfect for a spicy newbie like you. (我也是。微辣對你這種辣度新手剛剛好。) Amy: Deal. Next time, I'll say spicy from the start. (成交。下次我一開始就會說 spicy。) Kevin: Perfect. Now let's enjoy these mild wings and the game. (太好了。那我們就好好享受這些微辣雞翅和比賽吧。) ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📚 重點單字 spicy/ˈspaɪ.si/辣——因辣椒產生的刺激感,形容食物辣度的正解字 hot/hɑt/燙/熱——原意是溫度高;食物脈絡也可指辣,但容易讓外國人誤會成燙口 mild/maɪld/不辣/溫和——辣度低或幾乎不辣,點餐降辣度必備字 numbing/ˈnʌm.ɪŋ/麻——超辣的東西(如鬼椒醬)帶來的舌頭發麻感 bland/blænd/無味/清淡——味道太淡、不夠有層次,跟 spicy 相反的一種評價 kick/kɪk/嗆勁——食物或飲料帶來的強烈刺激感,常搭 spicy kick tongue-tingling/tʌŋ ˈtɪŋ.ə.lɪŋ/舌頭發麻刺痛的——生動描述吃辣椒/花椒後嘴巴的刺激感 sweat/swɛt/冒汗——吃很辣的東西常見的生理反應 handle/ˈhæn.dəl/承受得了、吃得消——can't handle the heat 常用來說某人不能吃辣 authentic/ɔːˈθɛn.tɪk/道地的——強調食物或做法是原汁原味、正宗的 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 💡 重點句型 Sentence Patterns
