阿莫講英文





PESTER POWER

-- a noun, the ability of children to make their parents buy things

for them by countinuing to ask them until they agree to do it.

兒童消費力,名詞,意旨小孩對父母的纏功、購買東西的能力。



the word, PESTER, a verb, means to keep annoying someone, especially

by asking them for something or to do something.

糾纏,動詞,意旨不斷煩鬧對方以達成要求對方為自己作某件事或買東西。



the word, PEST, a noun, somone who keeps annoying you, especially

a child.



基本上就是台語的 “歡“ 拉,小孩坐在地上哭鬧要爸媽買玩具的行為。

或是也可以解釋為台語的“盧“。

感覺這個時候用台語解釋更傳神哩~



好久沒有當小老師,以後聽到有趣的字再跟大家分享阿!
