Feifei
Hello and welcome to Authentic Real English. 大家好,我是冯菲菲。

Roy
And me, Roy. Feifei, why are you making that face?

Feifei
我的表情反映出这个饭有多不好吃!你要不要尝尝?

Roy
Not really if it’s disgusting – but thanks. What does it taste like?

Feifei
Horrible – like old milk mixed with fish. It’s part of a new diet, but it just tastes really gnarly.

Roy
What is gnarly – is that the name of the dish?

Feifei
不是不是,我是说 “it tastes gnarly”。“Gnarly” 可以用来形容事物是 “不好的,让人讨厌的,使人感觉不舒服的”。

Roy
Well, that makes sense – but maybe you can tell me why you’re eating something disgusting after these examples.

Examples
That coffee I bought tasted really gnarly. I’m going to complain.

He thinks he’s a good singer, but the noises he makes are just gnarly.

Getting out of bed early in the morning is gnarly. I like a lie-in.

Feifei
你正在收听的是 BBC英语教学的 “地道英语” 节目。我们正在教给大家如何用单词 “gnarly” 来形容事物 “不太好”。

Roy
So, you’re eating gnarly food to feel better?

Feifei
That’s right! I want to be healthier so I don’t feel so tired in the morning! I have to get up at 4am every day and it’s really gnarly.

Roy
Well, that sounds like a good plan but why do you get up at 4am?

Feifei
I’m practising for the next talent show. I sing opera for three hours every morning before work!

Roy
Hmm… I’m sure your neighbours don’t think that’s gnarly at all! Bye, Feifei.

Feifei
Bye, Roy.
