我们该点餐了吗？
Yes of course, sorry, time flies huh?
当然，抱歉，时间过得真快啊？
Flies… - Right, I think I'm gonna have steak, but the steak comes with tomatoes and I really don't like tomatoes, so what I might do if it comes with tomatoes, I might put them on your plates, but we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
时光飞逝……- 好的，我想我要点牛排，但牛排配有西红柿，我真的不喜欢西红柿，所以如果它配有西红柿，我可能会把它们放在你的盘子上，但我们到时候再说。
I'm allergic to tomatoes. - Ooh! Speak of the devil, they've got tomato soup, you can have that!

Do you want to buy any cryptocurrency?

And there you go, how many idioms did you spot?
好了，你发现了多少个习语？
And do you know what they all mean?
你知道它们都是什么意思吗？
If not, no worries, I'm here to help.
如果不知道，没关系，我来帮你。
The first common idiom we heard was "to break the ice".
我们听到的第一个常见习语是“to break the ice（打破僵局）”。
I never know how to break the ice.
我从来不知道如何打破僵局。
If you think, when you meet a new person the atmosphere is normally very cold, almost like there's ice covering everything.
如果你想，当你遇到一个新人的时候，气氛通常很冷，几乎像是有冰覆盖着一切。
When you break the ice, you do or say something to make the atmosphere a lot more relaxed and warm.
当你打破僵局时，你做或说一些事情，使气氛变得更加轻松和温暖。
You make the conversation easier, people feel more at ease, you feel like you are with someone you know rather than a stranger: to break the ice.
你让对话更容易，人们感到更自在，你感觉像是和一个熟人而不是陌生人在一起：打破僵局。
The next idiom we heard was kind of morbid, but it's kind of a morbid idiom: "to kill two birds with one stone".
我们听到的下一个习语有点阴郁，但它本身就是一个阴郁的习语：“to kill two birds with one stone（一石二鸟）”。
I kill two birds with one stone.
我一石二鸟。
All that means is to accomplish two tasks with one action.
这只是意味着用一个行动完成两项任务。
The next one we heard was "better late than never".
我们听到的下一个是“better late than never（迟做总比不做好）”。
Better late than never.
迟做总比不做好。
And that means exactly what it sounds like: it's better to do it later rather than never — at least you did it, at least you did it at some point rather than never at all.
这正是它听起来的意思：迟做总比不做好——至少你做了，至少你在某个时候做了，而不是从未做过。
Bez finally proposed to me, better late than never!
Bez 终于向我求婚了，迟做总比不做好！
And the next one was soon after that, "get it out of my system".
接下来的是紧随其后的“get it out of my system（把它做完）”。
I've got to get this out of my system.
我得把这件事做完。
"To get something out of your system" means you have a want to do something, you have a desire to do something, you want to say something, you want to achieve something, and you know you want to do it and you just need to 'ah', just do it!
“get it out of my system”意味着你想做某事，你有做某事的欲望，你想说某事，你想实现某事，你知道你想做这件事，你只需要‘啊’，去做吧！
I just need to do it so that I don't want to do it anymore.
我只需要做到不想再做了。
Now I wonder if you heard the next one because it was within a song.
现在我想知道你是否听到了下一个，因为它在一首歌里。
So when Bez was singing, "Can't read my, can't read my, no he can't read my Poker Face" by Lady Gaga.
所以当贝兹在唱 Lady Gaga 的《Poker Face》时有句歌词，"Can't read my，can't read my，no he can't read my Poker Face"。
"Poker Face", that's an idiom or phrase.
"Poker Face（面无表情的脸，扑克脸）"，这是一个习语或短语。
A "poker face" is a face that you use for poker, no one can tell what your emotions are, you are completely blank.
“Poker Face”是你在打扑克时用的面孔，没有人能看出你的情绪，你完全是空白的。
You don't know if I'm happy, if I'm sad, if I'm confused, because I have a great poker face.
你不知道我是否开心，是否难过，是否困惑，因为我有一个很好的扑克脸。
Now we don't only use this in the context of Poker, you can use it anytime someone is not revealing their true emotions.
现在我们不仅在扑克的背景下使用这个，你可以在任何人没有透露真实情绪的时候使用它。
Next up, we had "time flies", which is a shorter version of "time flies when you're having fun".
接下来，我们有“time flies（时光飞逝）”，这是“time flies when you're having fun”的简短版本。
Sorry, time flies, huh?
抱歉，时间过得真快，是吧？
You will notice that natives rarely say the whole idiom here, they rarely say "time flies when you're having fun", most of the time, they just say "time flies".
你会注意到本地人很少在这里说完整的习语，他们很少说“time flies when you're having fun”，大多数时候，他们只说“time flies”。
And this means time passes quickly when you are having fun.
这意味着当你玩得开心时，时间过得很快。
Then we had "we'll cross that bridge when we come to it".
然后我们有“We'll cross that bridge when we come to it（船到桥头自然直，到时候再说）”。
But we'll cross that bridge when we come to it.
但我们到时候再说。
This means we will handle that problem when we get there.
这意味着我们会在遇到问题时处理它。
It's not a problem right now, so don't worry about it.
现在不成问题，所以不用担心。
If it becomes a problem, we will deal with it then, not now.
如果它成为问题，我们会在那时处理，而不是现在。
Next up we had "speak of the devil" or "the goat", I don't know what I'm trying to be here.
接下来我们有“speak of the devil（说曹操，曹操到）”或“the goat”，我不知道我在这里想做什么。
Speak of the devil, they've got tomato soup, you can have that!
说曹操，曹操到，他们有番茄汤，你可以吃那个！
This is used when you have just been speaking about someone or something.
这用于当你刚刚在谈论某人或某事时。
You've just been having a conversation about them, and then next thing you know, they arrive or they appear!
你刚刚在谈论他们，然后接下来你知道，他们就到了或出现了！
So, oh, did you hear that Darren just bought a new house? That's amazing.
所以，哦，你听说达伦刚买了一栋新房子吗？太棒了。
Oh, speak of the devil, Darren! He's here!
哦，说曹操，曹操到，达伦！他在这里！
Speak of the devil.
说曹操，曹操到。
Next up, we had one that I probably use every single day: "good shout".
接下来，我们有一个我可能每天都用的："good shout（好主意）"。
Good shout.
好主意。
This is an alternative to "good idea", and it's extremely common in the UK, possibly in the US, I'm not entirely sure, but definitely in the UK, we will say "good shout" sometimes instead of "good idea", good shout.
这是“good idea”的替代说法，在英国非常常见，可能在美国也是，我不太确定，但在英国，我们有时会说“good shout”而不是“good idea”，好主意。
Next up we had "to have butterflies".
接下来我们有“to have butterflies（紧张，兴奋）”。
I had butterflies all day.
我一整天都很紧张。
This is that feeling in your stomach where it feels like it won't stop moving because you're nervous, you're excited, it feels like there are little butterflies in your stomach.
这是一种你肚子里的感觉，感觉它不会停止移动，因为你紧张，你兴奋，感觉就像有小蝴蝶在你肚子里。
Nervous, excited, that feeling.
紧张，兴奋，那种感觉。
Next, we heard "right as rain".
接下来，我们听到了“right as rain（非常好，身体或状况良好）”。
Yeah but then I went to the toilet, and I felt right as rain after that.
是的，但后来我去了厕所，之后感觉很好。
"To be right as rain", it means you are healthy, you are happy, nothing is wrong with you, you are normal, you are all good, in perfect health.
“To be right as rain”，这意味着你健康、快乐，没有问题，你很正常，你一切都好，身体健康。
Then we had "what you see is what you get".
然后我们有“What you see is what you get（所见即所得）”。
And what you see is what you get, baby.
所见即所得，宝贝。
That simply means the way I appear is the way I truly am.
这简单地意味着我看起来的样子就是我真实的样子。
I'm not hiding anything, I'm not pretending to be anybody different, if you see someone who is very happy, I truly am very happy What you see is what you get.
我没有隐藏任何东西，我没有假装成其他人，如果你看到一个非常快乐的人，我真的很快乐。你看到的就是你得到的。
Next up we had "it's not over till the fat lady sings", or if you want to be more American — "it ain't over till the fat lady sings".
接下来我们有“it's not over till the fat lady sings（事情还没结束，不要妄下定论）”，或者如果你想更美国化一点——“it ain't over till the fat lady sings”。
It ain't over till the fat lady sings.
事情还没完呢。
This simply means it's not over yet, okay?
这简单地意味着还没结束，好吗？
There's still time, it is not over until a fat lady sings, so if you hear a fat lady sing, maybe it's over, but it's not done yet, don't give up, we can still do this, there's still time, it's not over yet.
还有时间，事情还没结束，直到一个胖女人唱歌，所以如果你听到一个胖女人唱歌，也许事情结束了，但还没完，不要放弃，我们还可以做到，还有时间，事情还没结束。
There are two more idioms, stay with me.
还有两个习语，跟我一起。
"To get something off your chest": There's something that I need to get off my chest.
“To get something off your chest”：有些事情我需要说出来。
If you "get something off your chest", you finally say something that has been burdening you.
如果你“get something off your chest”，就是指你终于说出了让你感到负担的事情。
Maybe you've been keeping a secret for a long time and it's been stressing you out, it feels like you've got this pressure on your chest and you just want to… Similar to this, we have "it's been weighing on my shoulders".
也许你保守了一个秘密很长时间，这让你感到压力，感觉就像有压力在你的胸口，你只想……类似于此，我们有“It's been weighing on my shoulders”。
It's been weighing on my shoulders all evening.
它整晚都压在我肩上。
"To have a weight on your shoulders", to carry something on your shoulders, is to have a burden, something that sits here, and you feel like you can't relax because you're carrying this weight of a secret, of a bad thing that you've done, it sits on your shoulders.
“To have a weight on your shoulders”，肩上扛着东西，是指有负担，有东西在这里，你感觉无法放松，因为你肩上扛着这个秘密的重担，或者你做过的坏事，它就坐在你的肩上。
And there we go!
就这样！
How many idioms did you get? Did you get them all?
你学到了多少个习语？你都学到了吗？
I hope you did.
我希望你学到了。
