著名的牛津大字典每年都會選出一個年度最佳新單字
而今年勇奪冠軍的新單字就是: unfriend (v.)
根據牛津大字典的定義, unfriend 是指: to remove someone as a friend on a social networking site such as Facebook
(將某人從像 Facebook 這種社交網站上的朋友名單內移除)
簡單地說, 就是在網路上對別人說: "我不跟你玩了啦!" 的一種方式唄~
記住它是個動詞哦!
我們可以來造些句:
I can't believe Sara unfriended me! (真不敢相信莎拉居然把我從她的朋友名單上刪除了!)
I'm going to unfriend Tom because he really pissed me off! (我要把湯姆從我的好友名單裡刪除,因為他真的把我惹火了!)
其他入選冠軍決賽的有趣新單字還包括:
deleb (n.) = dead celebrity 過世的名人
netbook (n.) 小筆電
funemployed (adj.) 享受失業或無業生活的 (真是個強顏歡笑的辛酸單字啊...)
choice mom (n.) 選擇當未婚單親媽媽的女性
tramp stamp (n.) 女性臀部上方的刺青 (tramp 本意為"蕩婦", stamp "戳章"的意思)
是我的話, 會選 netbook tramp stamp, 哈哈~
