如果老外或者有人跟你说“Are you smoking”，可要当心了，这可不是问你抽不抽烟，而是暗暗在“怼”你！
从字面意思看，“Are you smoking”表示你正在抽烟吗？但在口语中，它其实是说人傻，可以翻译为：你是不是傻？或者你脑子进水了吗？以前经常用smoking来指代吸毒，人们会开玩笑说你脑袋吸傻了吧，“Are you smoking”后来就引申为“你是不是傻？”
Are you smoking? 你是不是傻？你脑子进水了吗？
Are you smoking? You were cheated by him several times.
你是不是傻？你被他骗了多少次了。

你在想什么？脑子进水了吗？
What are you smoking? 你胡说/你这是什么意思？

你这是什么意思？这么早我哪有课？
A: China has 10,000 people.
B: You must be smoking!

那么，你抽烟吗用英语怎么说呢？询问别人是否抽烟，正确的表达是：
Do you smoke? / Are you a smoker? 你抽烟吗？
注意，不要用can，因为会有一种质疑的语气，有点不太礼貌。

你抽烟吗？从去年开始，我就已经戒烟了。
