减肥(lose weight)已经不再是另类创举,它已经被大家所接纳并成为了一种默认的审美标准。要减掉身上那些在别人眼中,或是在自己眼中看来累赘的脂肪,想必吃素是不错的选择。加上疯牛病(mad cow disease)、禽流感(bird flu)的轮番袭击,我们前所未有地感觉到素食的重要性。今天我们就来看看几个和吃素有关的英语表达法:* j* B7 x, @8 x: h; E% t6 q    - l" M+ a. U: d; K) r% A2 m4 D6 X+ A食素自然和蔬菜有关,英语中有关吃素的词语也就和vegetable一词密不可分。吃素的人分为两种:

1 f- a& T6 G( Y) z: A. W vegetarian素食者,不吃任何肉类食品的人( t3 O) \% j8 J9 K, r ◆The vegetarian restaurant around the corner attracts many tourists each year.

# h! m6 P- P/ e# H& C3 S vegan严格的素食者(除肉类外,也不不吃鸡蛋和任何奶制品)* A; q0 ?# i P6 Q. P ◆She became a vegan after she believed in Buddhism. ' e" m i1 U4 z+ M& G  

0 W! [7 \* m; i) l$ F" a 除了各种蔬菜之外,素食者还会吃些什么样的食物呢?下面是他们可以选择的两种食品:

2 `) X3 u$ O6 i2 D: T6 Fvegeburger(vegetable+burger)植物蛋白饼,即蔬菜包(面包里夹有蔬菜,虽然不像汉堡包(hamburger)里有大块的肉饼,但是形状上看似肉夹饼,望上一眼,多少也就果腹了) : \" l4 I9 r; O' P◆The newly marketed vegeburger is claimed to be more healthy and tasty than the traditional hamburgers.

3 N8 O. v: V* B- M9 c vegelate (vegetable+chocolate) 素巧克力(用植物油脂vegetable fat作稳定剂的巧克力) $ M! r/ y5 v6 [* D0 h◆Incredibly the Europeans think it’s being reasonable – they had originally wished to label British chocolate by the mouth-watering term, “vegelate”. # }2 @2 y i1 B  

* J- l4 n/ o2 Q5 C* O 在vegetarian/vegan等词的基础上,还衍生出一些表示其他意义的词汇和短语,例如:

3 s, B$ j7 g% F0 q vegetate过无所事事的单调生活" _0 J8 z. B- [# j( O) |% {, X ◆I got fed up with vegetating at home during the holiday.

~; G. }( {; p5 xveg out既可表示过素食者生活,又可表示过单调呆板的日子 . v% p) f( N/ y3 J◆Vegging out! is dedicated to promoting plant-based food and nutrition, whether you are a vegan, vegetarian, or someone who simply wants to eat more foods from the earth.$ O; w& z1 x) g' S/ i8 C, ]& M ◆We found ourselves having nothing to do during the weekend but vegging out for hours watching TV.+ y+ @- a9 s4 ^* M8 X2 \   

9 t$ E( Y0 f# S' E3 _+ j7 l5 O+ s. Y除此之外,在日常口语或非正式的场合中,还有两个简略的词语,通常用来表达蔬菜或素食者:veg (=vegetable英国英语), veggie (=vegetarian, 英国英语,或vegetable,美国英语)。 1 r4 Q3 g+ l6 }* \2 K/ {   + ?$ J% ]0 m" K' k+ t 选择吃素还是吃荤是个人的自由,关键是要有个均衡的饮食(balanced diet)。不过,吃素也好,不吃素也好,我们可能都不想自己的生活处于vegging out的状态。
