Don t do the ugly-American thing! The British s coming! The British s coming! Well, you made him crack anyway.
妙语佳句，活学活用
1. Grab some chow
Chow 的意思是“food，esp. hearty6 dishes or a meal”，grab 的意思是“拿东西”，那grab some chow就是“找点好东西吃吃”的意思了。例如：I m starving. Let s grab some chow.
2. Chianti
A dry red table wine made from a blend of different varieties of grapes, originally produced in northwest Italy. Chianti是个地名，是一个老的意大利葡萄酒产区，位于Tuscany，那里出产的酒普通质量的装在一种有藤编的大肚子瓶里，质量好的则是装在波尔多形瓶里。
Chianti有7个子产区，其中Chianti Classico最有名，还有Chianti Ruffina，Chianti Montalbano, Chianti Colli Fiorentini, Chianti Colli Senesi, Chianti Colline Pisane和Chianti Colli Arezzo。当然其他的某些产区不会出现在酒标上。
酿造Chianti用的主力葡萄是Sangiovese，当然也有的加入了其他的葡萄如Cabernet Sauvignon等，但是通常的比例不会超过10%。
Chianti酒一般较酸，好酒要在瓶中经过5～6年的藏酿才能达到适饮期。好的Chianti为红宝石色具有浓郁的果香和花香，口感圆润，层次感强。标有“Reserva”的Chianti经过3年的熟成是无疑的好酒。
3. Crack up
这里的意思是“动一下，笑一下”。Crack up 还可以表示“无法控制地大笑”，例如：That story about the revolving7 door really cracked me up. Ed cracked up, too, when he heard it.
4. Freeze-frame
我们常常说“定格”一个画面，freeze-frame 就是“定格”的意思。这个词可以引申来指“静止不动的场景或形象”。
5. Dry Goods
在这里，Dry Goods可不是什么好话，dry goods = nuts = testicles，因为Garfield 之前刚说了警卫：your zipper s down.
6. Stuck-up little punk
Stuck-up 指的是那些“自以为比别人好/强的人”，little punk 指的是“讨人嫌的人”，所以Stuck-up little punk 翻译过来就是“自以为是的讨人嫌的家伙”。
7. Ugly-American thing
Americans have a reputation as being obnoxious8, loud, rude and annoying, in other words ugly . Odie 做的事情可是非常粗鲁哦！
