Jessica在北京學中文，她的中國朋友要是遇到了不知道用美語怎么說的詞，就會來請教她。今天是于苗要問的：閨蜜。

Jessica: Wow, 于苗！What are you doing all dolled up!

YM: 我今天要去見我最最好的朋友！她是我大學同學，我們都兩年沒見了！

Jessica: Oh wow, sounds like you guys go way back!

YM: 可不！她可是我的標準閨蜜！My best friend!

Jessica: Actually in English, you can call her your BFF. BFF stands for Best Friend Forever. People use this term to refer to their best friends.

YM: 原來BFF就是永遠的好朋友！Yes, she's definitely my BFF! We were college classmates and lived in the same dorm for four years. 我們特別鐵，無話不談。咦，這個“鐵”用英文要怎么說呢？

Jessica: You can say: we are tight! Tight是關系緊密的意思，也就是說你們特別鐵！

YM: 可不！話說來跟我們一塊吃飯的還有另外一個人！我們吧，也挺好的, 不過吧，She's super competitive. She always wants what I have! 你說這種人該怎么說？Partial BFF? Partial tight?

Jessica: 哈哈……that sounds like a frenemy of yours. Frenemy consists of friend and enemy, it is basically half friend and half enemy!

YM: 原來如此! This girl is a frenemy. 我們倆表面不錯，但是暗地里好象老是在明爭暗斗的。

Jessica: Sounds like a love-hate relationship to me!

YM: That's so true, 我對她絕對是又愛又恨，你看，今天我跟我閨蜜見面，她又跟來了！哎……

Jessica: 哈哈，開心點！Before you go, tell me what you've learned today!

YM: 今天我們學到的內容包括:

第一，閨蜜是best friend forever, 也就是BFF,

第二，關系很鐵可以用tight;

第三，亦敵亦友，叫做frenemy;

第四，愛恨交加是 a love-hate relationship!
