商务聊天中会用到的运动术语

  (In a typical office somewhere in New York)

  (在纽约某处一家典型的办公室)

  Bob: Well, is Trevisos going to play ball or are we going to strike out on this deal?

  Pete: The latest locker talk is that our game plan is a real contender for the contract.

  鲍勃:这个生意Trevisos是打算跟我们合作了还是要把我们三振出局了呢?

  皮特:据最新的小道消息说,我们的方案对这个合同很有竞争力。

  play ball:baseball-play a game, idiom-do business with

  play ball在棒球中表示打一场比赛的意思,短语的意思就是和……做生意

  strike out:baseball-go out, idiom-fail

  strike out在棒球中表示三振出局,也就意味着失败了

  locker talk:general sports-talk among the players, idiom-gossip, rumors

  locker是锁东西的柜子,locker room指的就是更衣间,在通常运动中,locker talk表示运动员之间的谈话,更衣室内的谈话,于是也就有了流言、传言、小道消息的意思。gossip这个词相信看过《绯闻女孩》的朋友都很熟悉。

  game plan:American football-plan which plays to make, idiom-plan of action

  game plan在美式足球也就是榄球术语中表示球队比赛的策略,短语的意思是行动计划、行动方案。

  Bob: Yeah, the other team has two strikes against it after they fumbled last week.

  Pete: They had a great chance of scoring but I think Trevisos thought they weren't up to scratch on some of the details.

  鲍勃:对,另外一组在上周犯了大错之后处境已经很不利了。

  皮特:他们本来有个大好的机会,但是我觉得Trevisos会认为他们在一些细节问题上不太合格。

  two strikes against it:baseball-one step from going out or loosing, idiom-close to not succeeding

  Pete: If our numbers are right, we should be able to call the shots from here.

  鲍勃:他们从Smith's and Co.拿数字的时候太拖拉了,把自己逼到山穷水尽的地步。要是咱们能在下次开会的时候干的漂亮点,我觉得我们应该可以继续往前走了。

  皮特:如果我们的数字是对的,我们应该就能在这里一举拿下了。

  no-win situation:baseball-impossible to win, idiom-impossible to succeed
