Used chiefly in the Southeastern states,juke (also appearing in the compound juke joint ) means a roadside drinking establishment that offers cheap drinks, food, and music for dancingand often doubles as a brothel."To juke" is to dance,particularly at a juke joint or to the music of a jukebox whose name, no longer regional and having lost the connotation of sleaziness, contains the same word.格勒语是沿美国乔治亚洲和南卡罗来纳州海岸的黑人说的以英语为基础的克里奥耳语。该语言仍保留着一些由奴隶带过来的西非各种语言中的单词。其中之一就是juke , 意为“坏的,邪恶的,杂乱无序的”,这可能就是英语单词juke 的词源。 主要在东南部各州使用的juke (也出现在复合词 juke joint 中), 意为公路旁边供应廉价饮料、食物和跳舞的音乐,以及经常兼作妓院的小酒馆。"To juke"意为跳舞,尤其是在廉价小酒店里跳或伴着自动唱机里的音乐跳。这种投币或自动唱机的名称不再具地方性,也失去了低级庸俗的涵义〔double〕a frying pan that doubles as a pie tin; a conductor who doubles as a pianist.兼作馅饼盘的油炸锅;兼奏钢琴的指挥〔cum〕our attic-cum-studio.我们的阁楼兼作录音室 |
