Neil
Great party last night, Feifei!
Feifei
It was so much fun, Neil. I loved your dad dancing too!
Neil
You… saw my dad… dancing? But my dad wasn’t dancing. He wasn’t even there.
Feifei
No, no, no. You know what I mean: ‘dad dancing’. It means dancing… well, like a dad.
Neil
I’m not sure where you’re going with this?
Feifei
“Dad dancing” 是这集 “地道英语” 节目里要介绍的表达。“Dad dancing” 描述了一种笨拙、过时、太做作的舞姿。
Neil
What are you saying? I can moonwalk. I can spin on the spot. I can swing my arms in the air. I’ve got all the moves!
Feifei
哈，这些可都是经典的 “dad dancing” 舞步！Don’t worry – it looked like you were really enjoying yourself.
Neil
It’s OK, I get it. Some of my moves are a bit old-fashioned. But sometimes it just feels good to let go!
Feifei
I think your kids were a little bit embarrassed.
Neil
Really? They’re just jealous.
Feifei
Haha, maybe! OK, let’s hear some examples.
Examples
Wow, look at Ernesto. Is he swinging a cat? What a dad dancer!
Katka's dad was hilarious at the wedding. Everyone had stopped dancing, but he was still up there dad dancing, showing off all his moves.
I used to think Dad’s dad dancing was funny. But after he injured his ankle really badly last time, I think it’s time he slowed down.
Feifei
这里是 BBC英语教学的 “地道英语” 节目。这次我们教给大家的表达是 “dad dancing”。Neil?
Neil
Yeah… Uh-huh… OK, so next Wednesday? Yeah, OK. I’ll see you!
Feifei
Who were you calling?
Neil
I’ve just booked some dance lessons. You’ve helped me realise I need to improve my skills.
Feifei
I was only teasing, Neil.
Neil
It’s OK. If I’m dancing, I want to be the best dancer on the floor. And if I’m dad dancing, well, I want to be finest dad dancer you’ve ever seen!
Feifei
Best of luck. Bye!
Neil
Bye.
