素食主义力求回归自然,回归健康,保护地球生态环境,以返朴归真为理念的素食主义将来有一天或许能获得惊人的成功!为了信仰,为了自身的健康,让我们一起来提倡素食主义吧!咖啡英语小编带大家看看,这类话题相关的表达方式:
食素自然和蔬菜有关,英语中有关吃素的词语也就和vegetable一词密不可分。
吃素的人分为两种: vegetarian素食者,不吃任何肉类食品的人 The vegetarian restaurant around the corner attracts many tourists each year.
Vegan严格的素食者(除肉类外,也不不吃鸡蛋和任何奶制品) She became a vegan after she believed in Buddhism.
除了各种蔬菜之外,素食者还会吃些什么样的食物呢?下面是他们可以选择的两种食品: vegeburger(vegetable+burger)植物蛋白饼,即蔬菜包(面包里夹有蔬菜,虽然不像汉堡包(hamburger)里有大块的肉饼,但是形状上看似肉夹饼,望上一眼,多少也就果腹了) The newly marketed vegeburger is claimed to be more healthy and tasty than the traditional hamburgers.
Vegelate (vegetable+chocolate) 素巧克力(用植物油脂vegetable fat作稳定剂的巧克力) Incredibly the Europeans think it’s being reasonable – they had originally wished to label British chocolate by the mouth-watering term, “vegelate”.
在vegetarian/vegan等词的基础上,还衍生出一些表示其他意义的词汇和短语,例如:vegetate过无所事事的单调生活 I got fed up with vegetating at home during the holiday.
Veg out既可表示过素食者生活,又可表示过单调呆板的日子 Vegging out! is dedicated to promoting plant-based food and nutrition, whether you are a vegan, vegetarian, or someone who simply wants to eat more foods from the earth. We found ourselves having nothing to do during the weekend but vegging out for hours watching TV.
除此之外,在日常口语或非正式的场合中,还有两个简略的词语,通常用来表达蔬菜或素食者:veg (=vegetable英国英语), veggie (=vegetarian, 英国英语,或vegetable,美国英语)。
选择吃素还是吃荤是个人的自由,关键是要有个均衡的饮食(balanced diet)。不过,吃素也好,不吃素也好,我们可能都不想自己的生活处于vegging out的状态。
