    Helen: In Real English, we look at words and phrases that you might not find in your dictionary.
    Chen Li: 英語是一種十分程式化的語言,所以了解現(xiàn)實生活中人們經常使用的固定表達和俚語自然就很有用了。
    Helen: Today’s word is ‘bash’ – B.A.S.H.
    Chen Li: 那么它的意思是什么呢?
    Helen: Well bash usually means to hit very hard
    Chen Li: 那么說,bash 常用意思就是用力的擊打,還有其它的用法和意思嗎?
    Helen: Well a bash is also a large party or a celebration.
