Moron

「你這個笨蛋!(You moron!)」家裏的廁所已經塞了第N回,家人不整潔真的令人很困擾!

口語moron指a very stupid person,非常愚蠢,「笨蛋、白癡、低能」。Moron一字一點都不禮貌,駡人的時候才會用。例句:Don't put the plastic bag so close to the fire, you moron!Do you want to burn the house down?(你這個笨蛋,不要把膠袋放近火!你想把屋燒掉嗎?)

想加重語氣,可以用a complete moron(徹頭徹尾的笨蛋)或者a pathetic moron(可悲的笨蛋)。例句:I can't believe I did something so stupid twice today!I feel like a complete moron!(我不敢相信我今天做了兩次如此笨的事!我覺得我完全是低能白癡!)You shouldn't cry over their rude comments. They are just a bunch of pathetic morons!(你不應因為他們粗魯無禮的評語而哭,他們只是一班可悲的笨蛋!)

駡人「愚蠢、白癡」,除了用moron一字,還可以用idiot和fool;用形容詞也可,有foolish、stupid、dumb-ass等等,例如dumb-ass politicians(死蠢的政治家)。
