　　Neil: This is Real English from BBC Learning English. I’m Neil.

　　Helen: And I’m Helen.

　　Neil: Today we’re going to look at words and phrases that have recently become part of the English language.

　　Neil: English has a lot of vocabulary. One of the reasons for this is that new words are constantly coming into use.

　　Helen: 所以跟著 Real English 學英語是非常重要的。

　　Neil: Absolutely!

　　Helen: 今天要教我們什么新詞兒啊，Neil.

　　Neil: Today’s new word is "hoody". – H.O.O.D.Y. – hoody.

　　Helen: Hoody, 是什么意思啊？

　　Neil: Well, a hoody is a teenage boy who typically wears a sweatshirt with a hood.

　　Helen: 哦，hoody就是指那些穿著運動衣裹著頭巾戴著帽子的.青少年。

　　Neil: Yes, but the name hoody has a negative sense for many people.

　　Helen: Hoody 是個貶義詞，能不能再給我們解釋解釋，Neil。

　　Neil: Yes. Hoodies are often violent or commit crime.

　　Helen: Hoodies 就是那些特別不憤兒的暴力小混混兒，有那么厲害嗎？

　　Neil: Yes. Hoodies are often responsible for violent crimes or street robberies.

　　Helen: 哦，這些叫 hoody 的人，就是那些愛找事兒的年輕人，他們其實才只有十幾歲呀。

　　Neil: That’s right.

　　Insert

　　A: I don’t feel safe going into the town centre at night.

　　B: Me neither. There are gangs of hoodies just standing around or causing trouble.

　　Helen: 那 Neil, 是所有的 hoody 都有暴力傾向嗎?

　　Neil: I don’t think so, but they look frightening.

　　Helen: 他們看上去都很兇。

　　Neil: Yes. Hoodies look dangerous, so many people avoid them.

　　Helen: Right, okay.

　　Helen: Really？

　　Neil: No, never. But I still prefer to stay away from hoodies if possible.

　　Helen: 那倒是, 能避開就避開吧。

　　Neil: But, Helen, most teenagers are really lovely people. Anyway, let’s recap – a hoody - means a teenager wearing a hooded sweatshirt who intimidates others or causes violence.
