巨好笑的一篇文章.这种一本正经的讨论方式显得相当傻里傻气.可能这老外真没办法找到中国俚语的感觉,或者他自己也是一隐藏极深的冷面笑匠.
Debi is Beijing slang for talking bullshit, or something like 'yak yak yak' or 'yada yada yada'.
The below is translated from Massage Milk, the excellent blog of Wang Xiaofeng, an editor at Life Week magazine (三联生活周刊).
De bi is a vulgar word often heard in Beijing.
Beijingers have a habit of blindly adoring reproductive organs: they often add the word bi [slang for vagina] to express their meaning more clearly or for greater effect. For example, a motorized scooter for disabled people is often called can mo [short for disabled person's motorbike], but for Beijingers, it's called a que bi le, which you might translate as 'fun for lame cunts'.
It is a little insulting to disabled people, but it is really representative of Beijing humor.
It is not worth promoting this kind of humor, but from all these words that are made using bi, we can tell what Beijingers are thinking about all the time.
The 'de' in de bi is pronounced in the first tone, and longer than the usual 的. It's usually used in the string "debi debi de". Other Beijing slang words made up with the word bi are: Shi er bi While de bi means being too talkative, shi'r bi means having too much shi'r: too many issues, problems, random stuff going on, headaches, always something to break your balls about.
Er bi
Pretentious, stupid, foolish in an annoying way
Sha bi
Stupid person, idiot Niu bi
Cow vagina, which means either really cool, or being pompous, swaggering or boastful You can add bi on to the end of many adjectives using the following grammatical principle: "Adjective" + bi = Very (特) "adjective" person (的人).
Adding a little more bi to our lives, a commentor on Massage Milk contributed the following:
A lot of people don't say de bi, but de'r bi with a lot of stress on the 'er'. That de'r means the male reproductive organ, the counterpart of the bi. It means talking so much that the bullshit never ends, just like the male and female reproductive organs are c##被过滤##tantly twined together. |
