| 释义 | 〔grandfather〕The city passed an ordinance restricting the size of advertising signs, but grandfathered all those signs erected before 1982.该市通过了一项限制广告牌规格的法令，但那些在1982 年以前竖起来的招牌免受限制〔signboard〕A board bearing a sign.广告牌：一块上面有标志的牌子〔Popsicle〕“[He] likes blue and lavender lighting and finds lots of excuses to use it in the neon Popsicle landscape whose unrealness he celebrates" (Boston Globe)“[他] 喜欢蓝色和淡紫色的灯光，并想尽借口将它们使用于霓虹灯广告牌中，他喜欢这种招牌的不真实性” (波士顿环球)〔damned〕There are many regional variants, mostly euphemisms, fordamned, both as an oath and as a mild intensive. Southern exclamations and intensives tend to begin withdad-, a euphemism for "god"—hencedadblamed, dadblasted, dadburn, and dadgum. Dadgum can be combined withit in the interjection dadgummit. Another such euphemism is the better knowndoggone, probably originally Southern but now widespread.Likedadgum, doggone is used as a mild intensive: "The best doggone deals in Alabama" (billboard in Montgomery). Doggone likewise appears in phrasal interjections: Doggonit, I dropped my hammer. A common regional variant ofdamned is durn, also euphemistic and relatively mild,as in this snatch of Baltimore dialogue: "If that's not just the weirdest durn thing I ever laid eyes on" (Anne Tyler).作为诅咒和轻度的加强语气词，damned 有许多宗教上的替换形式，其中大多为委婉语。 南方人的感叹词和加强语气词倾向于以dad- 作为开始， “上帝”的一种委婉说法——因而出现dadblamed，dadblasted，dadburn 和 dadgum。 Dadgum 在感叹词dadgummit 中，可与 it 结合在一起。 另一个这样的委婉词比doggone 知道的人更多， 可能最初为南方人使用而现在已普遍应用了。象dadgum，daggone 被用作轻度的加强语气词： “亚拉巴马最好的交易” （蒙哥马利的大型广告牌）。 Daggone 同样也出现在短语感叹词： 他妈的，我弄掉了锤子。 dammed 是 durn 的一个常见局部性的变体， 它也是一个委婉语且相对较轻，正如巴尔的摩的几句对话中出现的： 如果那不是最奇特的东西，我绝不会看一眼的 （安妮·泰勒）〔billboard〕A panel for the display of advertisements in public places, such as alongside highways or on the sides of buildings.广告牌：公共场所用来张贴广告的平板，如沿公路两旁或在建筑物一侧〔ugly〕an unsightly billboard. beautiful 难看的广告牌 beautiful |
