“伴舞演员”,你会吗?

分类: 趣味英语 

娱记们这一次又该扬眉吐气了——八卦成真,布兰妮终于提出离婚诉讼。当然,报道这场从不被看好的婚姻时,媒体肯定不忘细挖即将离任的“布兰妮先生”凯文·费德林的相关信息——一心相当歌手的他曾是三流舞蹈演员,给布兰妮前男友、人气歌手贾斯汀伴过舞,在一部名为《热力四射》的电影中充当过小角色……

请看外电相关报道:Federline appeared in the movie "You Got Served" and performed as a backup dancer for singer Justin Timberlake, Spears' former boyfriend. He was previously involved with actress Shar Jackson of TV's "Moesha." Federline and Jackson have two children.

在这段话中,词组“backup dancer”值得一提,汉语中的“伴舞演员”就可用它来表达。“Backup”在这里指为主唱“伴奏”、“伴唱”或“伴舞”,如:backup band(伴奏乐队);band singer(伴唱歌手)。

另外,我们常说的“备份”也可用“backup”来形容,如:backup file(备份文件);backup diskette(备份软盘)。
