在台湾买东西时,我们常常都会使用”cheap”来表达这个物品很便宜,但有的时候还味着这个物品很廉价,品质很差。到底要如何用对单字来描述买到经济又实惠,或者物美价廉的好东西呢?让VT把关键单字一次告诉你,不再NG!
1. cheap:
便宜的,不贵的 – costing little money or less than is usual or expected
收费低廉的(商店或餐馆)– If a shop or restaurant is cheap, it charges low prices
价廉物美 – cheap but good or enjoyable
便宜地,廉价地(购买商品)- If you get goods on the cheap, you get them for a low price, often from someone you know who works in the company or business that produces them.
<延伸>你知道”cheap”还有别的意思吗?
口语化的”cheap”有时候代表一个人很小气的意思噢!
Don’t you know that he’s a cheap person? He only offers his guests tap water instead of mineral water, tea or coffee.
(难道你不知道他是个小气的人吗?他只给来作客的人自来水喝而已,才不提供矿泉水、茶或咖啡呢!)
2. bargain: (n.) 便宜货,廉价品;协议;买卖,交易
something on sale at a lower price than its true value
<延伸>
讨价还价:bargain(v.) +with/over/about
寻找便宜物品的行为: bargain-hunting
有的时候 “bargain” 也会用在用低价钱买到不错的东西,或者很划算的时候,例如:It’s a bargain!
若你用稍微低的价钱买到品质不错的东西时,建议也可以多多使用下列的单字或片语噢!
3. inexpensive: 花费不多的,价钱不贵的
not costing a lot of money
4. economical: 经济实惠的;省钱的;节约的
not using a lot of fuel, money

1. 经济实惠:good deal
