Jessica在北京学汉语，她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教她。

YL: Jessica! 跟你说件事儿。

Jessica: Go ahead.

YL: 我不久前碰到高中时同桌的男生，和他聊得特投机! 我们一起看电影，吃饭，跳舞......太开心了! 我好象喜欢上他了!

Jessica: You mean you "developed a crush on him?" Crush is spelled c-r-u-s-h, crush. It means atemporary love.

YL: 哦，crush 就是一时迷恋，动心。Jessica, I think I developed a major crush on him.

Jessica: 杨林，你不是有男朋友么?

YL: 呃......我也为这事儿发愁呢，不知道谁是我的真命天子。

Jessica: 真命天子?那不是皇帝么?

YL: 哈哈，是皇帝没错。可一个女生的真命天子就是她真正的伴侣。这用英文怎么说呢?

Jessica: Oh, you're talking about "Mr. Right"! Mr. Right refers to the perfect man for you.

YL: Mr. Right? right是“对，正确”，所以 Mr. Right 就是各方面都跟我特别合适的男人， 我的真命天子!

Jessica: Exactly! So who looks like your Mr. Right, your boyfriend or this high school classmate?

YL: 我也不知道! 你说我该选择哪个呢?

Jessica: Well, I think you should choose the one who is your soul mate.

YL: soul mate? s-o-u-l, soul是灵魂的意思，mate 是伴侣，所以soul mate 就是灵魂伴侣喽?

Jessica: 没错! Your soul mate is the person with whom you have deep and natural love. It's veryspiritual.

YL: 和那人心有灵犀一点通，这感觉太美好了!

Jessica: 好了，Let's see what you've learned today!

YL总结笔记:

第一：对某人产生好感，是 to develop a crush on someone

第二：女孩子的真命天子， Mr. Right

第三：灵魂伴侣，叫做 soul mate

你学会了吗?
