课堂教案:

Hello everyone and welcome to Xiaoming English
大家好,欢迎来到小明英语

I’m your teacher Ming
我是你们的老师Ming

很高兴可以见到大家

我们现在就开始课程吧

So the first section of today’s class is called Hello Slang
今天课程的第一部分是“你好俚语”

and the slang for today is “sketch”, which is also used as “sketchy”
今天的俚语是“Sketch”,或者也可以说“Sketchy”

它们的意思就是不靠谱

它们怎么会有这个意思

Sketch本来就是画画的意思,做出来一个草图

Calling something sketch is saying that it was done very quickly, it’s not

complete
说一件事是Sketch是指这件事做得非常仓促,没有完成

So as a slang, it means something is not working, or doesn’t look very good.
所以用作俚语时,它的意思是不工作,或者看起来很不行

Like you know也可以说不靠谱

Let’s try using them in a sentence
让我们试试在一个句子中用一下这个俚语

For example, if I’m on the computer
举个例子,如果我在用电脑

在电脑上面,查查一个东西,找一个网站

然后那个网站(有)不靠谱的感觉

If that website doesn’t feel quite right
这个网站感觉不太对

You can say whoa, that website looks sketch
你可以说,哇,这网站看起来真不靠谱

I don’t want to give any of my personal information.
我可不想写我的个人信息

有意思的一条信息
