英语中的各种社交约会

在美国,约会有很多种类,女孩子也可能同时跟好几个男孩子约会(貌似在中国的一些大城市也差不多哦),并且处于不同的关系会有不同的说法,这与我们中国的文化有太多的差异。这里我们给大家总结了一些约会与情侣关系间说法。

1.怎样约会?\"Dating\"or\"Going out\"

Date 和 go out 都可以表示异性朋友(尤其是有感情或是暧昧关系的)之间的约会,我们来看几个例子,体会一下用法:
I dated him when I was in college.

I've only had one date with him so far.

We're going on a date this Saturday night.

Would you like to go out together sometime?

2.约会的种类 Kinds of dates

约会当然也有好几种啦,快看看都有什么呢:
Blind date: two people have never met before (often arranged by friends)

Double date: where couples get together to do something

Hot date: date someone very attractive or used playfully for a date with a friend or spouse

Going Dutch: date where each person pays his or her share

3.处于恋爱关系中

当一对男女处于恋爱关系中时,该怎样描述呢:

They are in a relationship.
Is she seeing anyone now?
I think we are going steady.

See someone 和 go steady 都表示\"长期和某人约会,处于恋爱关系中\"。

4.\"天生一对\"的伴侣

看到一对幸福的伴侣,你心里一定会想到\"天生一对\"这样的词吧,那这样的表达用英语该怎么说呢:

They were made for each other.
Aren't they the perfect couple?
They are a match made in heaven.
I think they are good together.

5.夫妻关系

如果两个人成为夫妻,或是结成了长期稳定的伴侣关系,又该怎样描述呢:

A couple: two people dating exclusively
例如:They are really nice couple.

An item: a couple who is the topic of gossip or interest.
例如:So are you two an item now?

Sweet heart: girl friend or boyfriend; implies a sweet relationship
例如:He married his high school sweet heart.

Lovers: a couple who show their affection openly
例如:Those two lovers just got married last month.

6.露水姻缘

都说情和性可以分开,只是为了一时的寻欢作乐发生的情事也不少,像这样的事情我们用下面的词来形容:

Love affair 例如:He had a love affair with a French girl when he was studying in France.

Summer fling 例如:It was nothing serious; it was just a summer fling.
