harassenger 恼人乘客
分类: 实用英语
Harassenger (blend of harass and passenger) is a passenger who is constantly judging your driving skills. He/she constantly cautions you to keep a safe distance from the car in front of you, checks that you're obeying the speed limit, and is always quick to point out your navigational errors.
Harassenger(harass和passenger二词的合成形式)指坐在你车上并不停对你的驾驶技术挑毛病的乘客,我们可称为“恼人乘客”。他/她会不停地提醒你与前车保持安全距离,查看你的车速是否在限速范围内,而且总能很快指出你的导航错误。
For example:
Guy riding shotgun: "Could you slow down a little? We're dangerously close to exceeding the speed limit by 5 mph."
副驾驶座位上的乘客:你能不能开慢点儿?我们很快就要超速5迈了。
Driver: "Quit being such a harassenger."
司机:你快别烦我了!
