jo: what are you reading there li? li: oh it's just this week's celebrity gossip magazine. 我有空的时候就喜欢看娱乐新闻的杂志,里面有好多明星的小道消息。look have you seen this picture of george clooney at the film festival?
jo: ooo yes, he's really fit isn't he?
li:fit? well, i don't know if he likes sports or not jo.
jo: no i don't mean fit as in healthy or sporty.
li: 是吗?难道这里 fit 不是健康,身体好的意思吗?
jo: well it does but in informal english it means good looking. so if you think a man is really handsome then you can say ╟ he's really fit!
jo: wow that’s something new. 你是说他看起来很帅,那 fit 这个词能用在漂亮的女孩身上吗?
jo: yes you can. you might hear a man say ╟ look at her ╟ she's really fit. and you often hear people say ╟ he or she is well fit. 'well' means very in informal english.
li: well 是 very 的口语表达,那么 he's well fit 就是 he is very good looking 他长得可真帅,真有型。那jo, 我们是不是经常在非常随便的情况下才能听到这个词的使用呢?
jo: yes that's right. lots of young people use this word when they're talking to their friend about who they like and don't like. here's some more examples.
examples
a: look, it's justin timberlake on the tv. i love him ╟ he's really fit.
b: do you think so? he's not really my type!
a: there's a new girl started working in my office and she's well fit. i'm finding it hard to concentrate on my work!
b: what's she like?
a: she's got long brown hair and a lovely smile. she's gorgeous!
