BBC地道英语口语:Doggy Bag 打包
Jo: Hello, I'm Jo and you're listening to Real English from BBC Learning English – the programme where we look at words and phrases that you might not find in your textbook or your dictionary. With me today is Helen.
Helen: Hi Jo. 大家好。在我们的地道英语节目中,你会发现不少在字典上查不到的通俗表达。那Jo, 今天有什么有意思的'新词吗?
Jo: Well Helen, today's expression is doggy D.O.G.G.Y bag B.A.G. doggy bag.
Jo: A doggy bag is actually something we get at a restaurant. Sometimes when you eat out there is a lot of food and you can't finish everything because you are full – well you might want to take that leftover food home.
Helen: Leftover 多余的,吃剩了的食品. 这种情况我们在餐馆里经常碰到,叫了太多的菜,结果吃不完。
Jo: So you would ask for a doggy bag.
Helen: 明白了,A doggy bag 就是在餐馆里要求把剩菜打包带回家,不过这名字好像不大好听。Why is it called a doggy bag Jo?
Jo: Well, it's because sometimes people take leftover food home to give to their dog – but most of the time the food is for people to eat not dogs. But we always call it a doggy bag. Let's listen to an example shall we?

Jo: So there we have it – today's expression – doggy bag.
Helen: 好了,今天我们的地道英语就到这儿。
