🐽Food Idioms 美國生活用語：Pork 更多豬肉

上週都在說豬的壞話，這禮拜來為豬豬平反一下～其實豬有許多正向用語，快來瞧瞧～

1⃣ live (or eat) high on/off the hog
2⃣ go whole hog
3⃣go hog wild
4⃣ hog heaven
5⃣road hog
--
Speaking of pigs, did you know that “hog” is another word for pig? Specifically, a hog is a large pig bred to be eaten. And people eat a lot of pork, so naturally there are lots of hog-related idioms.
首先，你知道 hog 是豬的別稱嗎？具體來說，hog「肉豬」是指專門飼養來吃的豬。因為大家愛吃豬肉，所以當然有許多跟 hog 有關的生活用語。

One of the most interesting is 1⃣“live (or eat) high on/off the hog,” which means to live a luxurious, comfortable life. Why does it have this meaning? Because the most expensive cuts of meat come from high on the hog. Ex: Kevin has been living high on the hog since he won the lottery.
首先，一個最饒富趣味的諺語是 live/eat high on/off the hog，指過著奢華舒適的生活。為什麼會有這個意思呢？因為最貴的豬肉肉品剛好都來自於豬的上半身。如：Kevin has been living high on the hog since he won the lottery.（凱文中樂透之後，就一直過著奢華闊氣的生活。）

Lots of people enjoy pork, but what if you eat the whole hog? 2⃣ “Go whole hog” means to do something in a very thorough or enthusiastic way. Ex: We decided to go whole hog and stay in the presidential suite. 3⃣You can also “go hog wild,” which means to behave in an uncontrolled and excited manner. Ex: The kids went hog wild while their parents were away on vacation.
很多人愛吃豬肉，不過若是要你吃下整頭豬呢？go whole hog 指「豁出去做某事；徹底把某件事做完」如：We decided to go whole hog and stay in the presidential suite.（我們決定豁出去住總統套房。）類似用法還有go hog wild，指「興奮過度做過頭」，如：The kids went hog wild while their parents were away on vacation.（爸媽放假出門時，小孩在家裡玩瘋了。）

We all know about heaven, 4⃣but what is “hog heaven”? It’s a state of idle bliss and contentment. Ex: Sitting on the sofa drinking beer and watching the game, Mike was in hog heaven. And finally, 5⃣there are “road hogs.” Since hogs are known for their greedy behavior, a road hog is someone who “hogs” the road. Ex: I hope the cops give that road hog a ticket.
我們都知道天堂，但什麼是hog heaven「豬天堂」？就是形容相當愉快滿足的狀態，如：Sitting on the sofa drinking beer and watching the game, Mike was in hog heaven.（坐在沙發上喝啤酒看球賽，麥可就像身處極樂之地一樣。）最後是road hog，豬一向以貪心著稱，所以road hog指的是開車亂搶路的人，如：I hope the cops give that road hog a ticket. （真希望警察給那搶路的駕駛人一張紅單。）

【✍重點單字】
1. win the lottery「中樂透」
2. thorough「徹底的」
3. idle「閒閒無事的」
4. bliss「幸福」
5. contentment「滿足」：為名詞，形容詞 content「滿足的」。
6. give sb. a ticket「開罰單」：ticket 在這裡當「罰單」。

🐽Food Idioms 美國生活用語：Pork 豬肉

豬年即將結束，我們就趁這個專欄，介紹一些與 pork 豬肉有關的美國生活用語吧～🐖

1⃣eat like a pig; pig out
2⃣fat as a pig
3⃣sweat like a pig
4⃣pigsty
5⃣put lipstick on a pig
--

Pigs are known for being noisy, greedy eaters, 1⃣so if someone says you “eat like a pig,” well, you know what they mean. Ex: I don’t like eating out with Sean because he eats like a pig. In fact, pigs are so famous for their eating habits that they’ve even become verbs: “pig out” means “to eat greedily or gorge.” Ex: If you pig out on junk food, you’re going to get a stomachache.
豬吃東西一向又吵又急，所以如果有人說你 eat like a pig，嗯…我想你應該知道他是什麼意思。如：I don’t like eating out with Sean because he eats like a pig.（我不愛跟尚恩吃飯，因為他吃相像頭豬。）事實上，豬也因為吃相太出名，pig 一字也變成動詞了：pig out 指「狼吞虎嚥；大吃大喝」，如：If you pig out on junk food, you’re going to get a stomachache. （如果你猛塞垃圾食物，你會肚子痛。）

What happens if you eat like a pig? You get fat! 2⃣So if you say someone is fat as a pig, the meaning is obvious. Ex: Josh used to be thin, but now he’s fat as a pig. 3⃣The fat tend to sweat a lot, and “sweat like a pig” means “to sweat profusely.” Which seems strange, because pigs don’t actually sweat. As it turns out, this expression comes from pig iron, which “sweats” as it cools. Ex: I sweat like a pig whenever it gets hot.
那如果你吃得像一頭豬，會有什麼後果？對，你會變胖！所以如果你說，某人 fat as a pig，這意思應該也很清楚。如：Josh used to be thin, but now he’s fat as a pig.（賈許過去很瘦，可是現在肥得像頭豬。）人一胖，也很容易流汗，所以 sweat like a pig 就是指「汗流浹背」。這個說法其實沒道理，因為豬事實上是不流汗的。其實這個用語是出自生鐵（pig iron），一旦生鐵冷卻下來，就會一直『出汗』。如：I sweat like a pig whenever it gets hot.（天氣熱的時候，我總是汗流浹背。）

We all know how pigs love rolling around in the mud, so a 4⃣ “pigsty” can mean a place that’s really dirty or messy. Ex: Why is your room such a pigsty? 5⃣ Pigs are so dirty that putting lipstick on them wouldn’t make them look much better, so “put lipstick on a pig” means to make superficial changes in an attempt to makes something (or someone) seem better than it really is. Ex: The government’s PR campaign is just putting lipstick on a pig.
我們都知道豬喜歡在泥巴裡滾來滾去，所以 pigsty「豬圈」可以延伸形容又髒又亂的地方，如：Why is your room such a pigsty?（你房間怎麼可以亂得像豬窩？）因為豬太髒了，即使幫牠們塗口紅也沒用，所以這個譬喻用法 put lipstick on a pig 可以指「再怎麼粉飾美化也沒用」。如：The government’s PR campaign is just putting lipstick on a pig.（政府的公關活動只是給豬上口紅。）

【✍重點單字】
1. gorge「狼吞虎嚥」：當動詞。
2. pig iron「生鐵」：未經鍛造、品質不純的生鐵。
3. profusely「充沛地、大量地」
