Expression
나는 ~인 척 해요 = I pretend (that) ~Learning Tips
아이들이 놀 때 '~인 척 하기'놀이에서 쓰이는 단어가 바로, 'pretend'(=~인 척하다, 가장하다)입니다. "I pretend the fork is an aeroplane."(=난 포크가 비행기인 척 해.) 란 문장에서 눈에 띄는 단어! 바로 'aeroplane'(=비행기, 영국식 표기법)! 영국에서는 'airplane'(=비행기, 미국식 표기법) 대신 '에어로플레인' 이라고 해요. 뭔가 날아갈 때의 사운드는 영어로 'shwoop'(=슈우웅~, 부우웅~) 이라고 해요. 참고로, 'boo'는 '왁!'(놀래킬 때), 'stump'는 '쿵!'(큰 발소리) 'squick'은 '찍!'(쥐 소리) 입니다.Episode
Episode 8. Good Try Mev is a very challenging person and he doesn't hesitate to try new things. But there is one thing that he dares not try. New food. He rejects food that he has never tried before. He just never tries. I let him try new foods, although the success rate is very low. I urge him to try just one bite but he tells me a story. "Ha ha... I was so lucky..." "Umm...???" "When I was ten, Mum took me to 'World Food Festival' and fortunately, I tried that." What a creative story! Oh well, then... I pretend the fork is an aeroplane and say something like shwoop!
