qy: happy friday, donny! 你今天晚上有什么计划吗?
donny: hmm, not yet. what do you have in mind?
qy: let's go salsa!! 我今晚要跟两个朋友去跳salsa, 可他们俩是一对,我可真不想夹在中间,当大电灯泡--very bright light bulb!
donny: i see. you don't want to be the third wheel.
qy: the third wheel?
donny: yep! wheel is spelled w-h-e-e-l. the third wheel, 第三个轮子, it's a very colloquial way of saying a third person joining a couple in a social context.
qy: 没错!我就是不想当 the third wheel!
donny: exactly, you wouldn't want to bother any love birds, right?
qy: wait! love birds? 爱的鸟儿?
donny:yep! in english, we often use the word love birds to refer to a couple who are openly affectionate, especially in public. 就是大庭广众之下卿卿我我。你不想打扰这对love birds吧?
qy: 可不是吗!不过这两个人很配!they are a great match!
donny: oh that's nice! you can also say, they are a match made in heaven.
qy: a match made in heaven? 那不就是中文里说的天生一对嘛!
donny: there you go! since you don't want to be the third wheel, i will go with you! but first, let's see what you learned today!
qy: 第一:电灯泡叫做:the third wheel;
第二,如胶似漆的情侣,可以说 love birds;
