The english we speak(BBC教學)第134期:Glamping 豪華野營
Neil: Hello and welcome to The English We Speak, I'm Neil Edgeller.
尼爾：大家好，歡迎收聽地道英語節目。我是尼爾·埃傑勒。Feifei: And I'm Feng Feifei. Neil you're looking very relaxed and healthy today.
菲菲：我是馮菲菲。尼爾，你今天看起來很放鬆，而且也很健康。Neil: Oh, thanks Feifei, I've just come back from a camping holiday actually.
尼爾：哦，謝謝你，菲菲，實際上我剛去野營度假回來。
Feifei: A camping holiday?! Most people come back from camping looking like they need another holiday because of the lack of comfortable facilities!
菲菲：野營度假？大部分野營回來的人看上去都需要繼續休假，因爲野營地沒有舒適的設施。Neil: Ah, well actually I cheated. I went glamping.
尼爾：實際上我說謊了。我參加的是豪華野營。Feifei: Glamping?
菲菲：豪華野營？Neil: Yes, glamping. Although I was staying in a tent, it was already set up when we arrived at the campsite, we slept on proper beds and even had a kitchen with a cooker and fridge.
尼爾：對，豪華野營。雖然我是住在帳篷裏，但其實當我們到達露營地時，帳篷已經搭好了，我們睡在舒服的牀上，那裏甚至還有配備爐具和冰箱的廚房。Feifei: Wow, that sounds more glamorous than camping!
菲菲：哇，那聽起來可比普通的露營豪華多了！Neil: Exactly! Glamorous camping. Put those two words together and you get…
尼爾：沒錯！豪華的露營。把這兩個詞組合在一起，就是……Both: Glamping.
二人一起：豪華野營。Feifei: Oh I see… glamping is a word made up of two words: glamorous…
菲菲：哦，我明白了……glamping這個詞是由兩個詞組成的：是豪華……Neil: And camping.
尼爾：還有露營。Feifei: It's glamorous because there are lots of facilities you don't normally get in a tent, such as proper beds and even a kitchen.
菲菲：稱爲豪華是因爲那裏有很多一般帳篷中不會有的設施，比如舒適的牀，甚至還有廚房。Example
例子A: I really hate camping… It reminds me of miserable holidays as a kid, sleeping on a cold, wet floor and eating horrible food!
A：我真的非常討厭露營……那讓我想起了孩提時代的痛苦假期，那時我睡在冰冷又潮溼的地上，而且食物也很糟糕！B: You should try glamping. You get to spend time in the great outdoors but in a proper bed and with nice meals! It's wonderful!
B：你應該試試豪華野營。你可以在戶外享受愉快的時光，然後睡在舒服的牀上，享用美食！那非常美好！Feifei: So do people really use this word 'glamping'?
菲菲：那glamping這個詞很常用嗎？Neil: Yes, it's quite a new word and a bit of a joke, but you can read it and you do hear people use it because there are more and more companies offering glamping holidays.
尼爾：對，這是一個比較新的詞，而且有點玩笑的意味，不過你可以聽到人們使用這個詞，因爲現在有越來越多的公司提供豪華野營假期。Feifei: Hmm…
菲菲：嗯……Neil: What's up Feifei? I know you're a city girl, but wouldn't you like to try glamping?
尼爾：菲菲，怎麼了？我知道你是都市女孩，不過你不想試試豪華野營嗎？Feifei: I'm not sure about that… Is there room service?
菲菲：我不太確定……那裏有客戶服務嗎？Neil: Room service?! That's a step too far! I'm afraid that's too glamorous for glamping!
尼爾：客服服務？那太過了！恐怕這對豪華野營來說太奢華了！Feifei: OK, how about a spa and massage room?!
菲菲：好吧，那有沒有水療室和按摩室？Neil: Spa and massage room?! Honestly, it's still camping. Bye for now.
尼爾：水療室和按摩室？老實說，那實質上還只是露營而已。現在該結束節目了。Feifei: Ha ha! Bye!
