For example, if you've happy about a situation, perhaps you might be "made up";

if not, you may end up telling someone to "jog on", or go away.

有的新興詞匯也許大家已經(jīng)耳熟能詳。

"Facebook" is one of the world's biggest social media websites,

“Facebook”是全球社交媒體巨頭之一，

同樣，像“SMS”，“Twitterer”這類能夠反映先進(jìn)科技時(shí)代的詞匯也被收錄。

Sometimes, learning a language can be tough and, with new words being added all the time,

學(xué)習(xí)一門語言雖然很難，況且還有新式詞語不斷涌現(xiàn)，

don't panic if you find that you've forgotten the name of something.

但如果你實(shí)在想不起來物體的名稱也不要驚慌。
