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: 4 b8 \: Z4 ]* p   9 m$ H& R: }- W& k) @5 q7 c3 I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:

7 M. P7 b1 }# z% a vegetarian素食者,不吃任何肉类食品的人& H) B6 |7 J9 t' P) W- D ◆The vegetarian restaurant around the corner attracts many tourists each year.

8 _4 M0 W# c: }' wvegan严格的素食者(除肉类外,也不不吃鸡蛋和任何奶制品) ( q# m6 k, m' l+ Y9 Y◆She became a vegan after she believed in Buddhism. - r! [( w3 ]2 x' A6 D   

; I r0 C# A& o. O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:

: f, Q( a" l$ P6 q Ivegeburger(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)9 p8 v+ Y8 ?6 g2 `% m8 j ◆The newly marketed vegeburger is claimed to be more healthy and tasty than the traditional hamburgers.

! }1 `. `7 z' b2 m- [ vegelate (vegetable+chocolate) 素巧克力(用植物油脂vegetable fat作稳定剂的巧克力) 5 J* M+ k0 o8 Y, }◆Incredibly the Europeans think it’s being reasonable – they had originally wished to label British chocolate by the mouth-watering term, “vegelate”. # i; V3 B: N; A0 A  

( C1 B( e0 C% X 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:

9 n- N, ?$ l R8 H5 ]) u2 ^ vegetate过无所事事的单调生活1 {- `- M1 H6 x9 [8 [ Y. \ ◆I got fed up with vegetating at home during the holiday.

2 s5 q, q2 J" a( S, @ veg out既可表示过素食者生活,又可表示过单调呆板的日子& _. L8 \! Q; s, Z' e M ◆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.0 W( `! i# y, G ◆We found ourselves having nothing to do during the weekend but vegging out for hours watching TV.' U5 g! j- e) i/ V4 }" Z9 P7 v4 y   

2 I4 j# Y- j) I; x/ u& {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)。8 k* X/ u$ ^1 }1 x/ g4 B, j6 l I    ; U3 `9 M& ^ E4 j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。
