Hiberdate
重色轻友
现在网络发达,新词迭出,hiberdate一看就知是hibernate+date组成的一个词。这是什么意思呢?请看对话:
A: We old classmates are throwing a Christmas party. I hope you and Jennifer will come.
B: Perhaps you can send her an e-mail yourself. In fact I haven't seen or heard from Jennifer since she started hiberdating Teddy three months ago.
A: No kidding. You guys were like peas and carrots back in school. Now it's just a few months from graduation. By the way, "hiberdating?" Did you invent the word?
B: Not me. It's used in the Daily Telegraph and recorded in the online urban dictionary. It's used to describe someone who ignores all their other friends when they are dating a boyfriend or girlfriend.
A: Interesting. At first look I thought it might mean to "date someone in winter," as winter is the time to hibernate.
B: It does have that meaning too, but not as popular as the other one.
记住了吗? Hiberdate就是“重色轻友”。
