Jo: Hello, I”m Jo and you”re listening to Real English from

BBC Learning English – the programme where we look at words and

phrases that you might not find in your textbook or your dictionary.

With me today is Helen.

Helen: Hi Jo. 大家好。在我们的地道英语节目中，你会发觉不少在字典上查不到的通俗表达。那Jo, 今日有什么有意思的新词吗？

Jo: Well Helen, today”s expression is doggy D.O.G.G.Y bag B.A.G.

doggy bag.

Helen: 从 doggy 这个词来看，我想这是应当和狗 dog 有关的一个表达吧？

Jo: A doggy bag is actually something we get at a restaurant.

Sometimes when you eat out there is a lot of food and you can”t

finish everything because you are full – well you might want to

take that leftover food home.

Helen: Leftover 多余的，吃剩了的食品. 这种状况我们在餐馆里常常遇到，叫了太多的菜，结果吃不完。

Jo: So you would ask for a doggy bag.

Helen: 明白了，A doggy bag 就是在餐馆里要求把剩菜打包带回家，不过这名字似乎不大好听。Why is it called a doggy bag Jo?

Jo: Well, it”s because sometimes people take leftover food home

to give to their dog – but most of the time the food is for people

to eat not dogs. But we always call it a doggy bag. Let”s listen

to an example shall we?

Insert

Waiter: Is everything OK?

Diner: Yes thanks. Can you put this in a doggy bag for us?

Waiter: Yes, of course.

Jo: If you want a doggy bag – you might also just ask – can

we take this home please?

Helen: 有时候，你可能不想说我要一个 doggy bag，你也可以直接说我想把这些剩菜带回 家。
