The script of this programme 本节目台词
Yang Li: Welcome to Authentic Real English from the BBC.
Diarmuid: Yes, and hi from me, Diarmuid, and my colleague Yang Li.
Yang Li: 今天的新词儿是…
(buzzing sound)
Yang Li: 什么声音，录音室里好像有蜜蜂?
Diarmuid: Eh? I don"t think there"s a bee in here. Anyway, shall we tell everyone our word for the day, Li?
Yang Li: Our word for the day is…
(buzzing sound)
Yang Li: I"m sure there"s a bee in here! 这里明明有嗡嗡的叫声嘛！How do you describe that sound in English?
What"s that noise...?
Diarmuid: We say it"s a buzzing sound. Buzz is spelled B.U.Z.Z. And it"s our word for the day.
Yang Li: Buzz 这个词字面意思是嗡嗡的声音，不过也可以用来表示打电话，拨个电话。
Diarmuid: Yes, I"m sure people know phrases like "give me a call" or "I"ll give you a ring." Well, you"ll often hear this word buzz instead of call or ring, when talking about making a quick phone call.
Yang Li: 请听例句。
Examples
A: When are you going to arrive?
B: Not sure exactly, I"ll give you a buzz when I come out of the station.
A: We really should meet up soon!
B: Yes, give me a buzz when you"re next in town and we"ll go for a drink.
Diarmuid: As we heard in the examples, this phrase is often used when making an arrangement to meet someone, not for when talking about making long telephone calls.
Yang Li: 是的，简短快速地给某人打个电话就是 give me a buzz, 汉语就是来个电话说一声。
Diarmuid: So that"s our Authentic Real English word for the day, try using it next time you are talking about phone calls.
Yang Li: Or, next time you see a bee.
(buzzing sound)
Diarmuid: That"s all for today. For more programmes visit www.bbcukchina.com.
Yang Li: Bye for now.
Diarmuid: Bye.
