“解困來電”英語怎么說
名詞解釋:解困來電就是無聊會議期間接到事先安排好的同事來電,好讓你佯裝出緊急狀況逃離那個會議;或是相親過程中朋友打來將你從尷尬約會中救出的那通電話。你知道怎么用英語表達嗎?
被家人逼著去相親,為了能盡快脫身,你提前跟好友商量好,讓他/她在15分鐘后給你打電話,然后你就可以佯裝有急事提前離開了。這樣的事情有多少人經(jīng)歷過呢?在英語中,這樣的電話叫escape call。
Escape call is a planned call or beep from a co-worker that allows you to feign an emergency in order to escape a particularly boring or meaningless meeting, or from a friend that helps you escape from an unsatisfying, even embarrassing blind date.
Escape call就是無聊會議期間接到事先安排好的同事來電,好讓你佯裝出緊急狀況逃離那個會議;或是相親過程中朋友打來將你從尷尬約會中救出的那通電話,我們統(tǒng)稱為“解困來電”。
Reasons for the call can be various, such as a neighbor calling about a leaky pipe; a mother informing that a sister just had a baby; or a boss saying he needs help immediately.
這種解困電話編出的由頭很多,可以是假裝鄰居打來說你家水管漏水了,假裝你媽媽來電說你姐姐生小孩了,或是假裝老板來電要你立即趕過去幫忙等等。
