1956 Rich vocabulary

“give me a masculine name.”

“Hmm... Nagini?”

Jimmy's first official question in the first formal segment specially prepared for tonight's show, Renly used a simple name to create a laugh.

If Jimmy hadn't been sure that they hadn't communicated in advance, and it was completely Renly's improvisation, he would have almost suspected that Renly had worked hard to come up with such an answer; however, it was precisely because of this that Jimmy admired Renly even more - —The charm of every gesture is truly eye-catching.

Jimmy looked at Renly with a half-smile, and said meaningfully, "It seems that you really have a lot of resentment towards 'Harry Potter'.”

Nagini, this is the name of Voldemort's personal python..

Renly spread his hands, "That's because we've been talking about 'Harry Potter' for so long. To be honest, I can't think of any 'X-Men' names right now. In fact, I can't think of any 'X-Men' names right now." I'm trying to remember the name of Michael Fassbender's character. Does any of you remember his name??”

The audience laughed again.

“Magneto! "Jimmy gave the answer in a friendly manner, "Wait, am I switching crews now??”

“No, we are still on the set of 'Interstellar'." Renly also quickly replied, "No, not Magneto, I mean Magneto's real name, not a nickname like 'Spider-Man'.”

“……”Jimmy also opened his mouth, his head covered with question marks, and then he stuttered and laughed, "I...to be honest, I can't remember either.".”

The audience in the studio began to raise their voices to remind them, and the clearly audible voice rang around. Jimmy repeatedly hit his head with the ballpoint pen in his hand, "Eric, Eric! Yes, yes, yes, I really forgot." Then Jimmy fell into a panic and called for help, "What should I do? Michael and James were guests on my show just two weeks ago, and I actually forgot.!”

Turning his head, Jimmy saw Renly with a calm face, and said in a dumbfounded voice, "It's all because of you, but you are so calm now."?”

Renly pursed his lips and said, "I'm not very familiar with them." He simply passed the blame. Jimmy was stunned, and then the entire audience burst into laughter..

Jimmy slumped his shoulders depressedly and said helplessly, "Can we continue to record the show?"?”

Renly raised his eyebrows and said, "Otherwise, we end it now? I have no problem with that.".”

“……”Jimmy held it in, and then said extremely seriously, "I hate you!" But the smile still burst out, shaking his head continuously, "Renly Hall, I hate you!" The entire studio burst into laughter. Unable to stop talking, Jimmy sat down again, assumed the "dictation" posture again, and then asked the second question, "What is your favorite teacher's name?"?”

“Professor Harwell." Renly replied.

Jimmy didn't raise his head, but the right hand holding the pen paused. He endured it again and again, but the smile at the corner of his mouth still couldn't be suppressed, and it just rose up..

The audience quickly reacted: Professor Xavier, this is Professor X’s surname. Obviously, Renly did it on purpose..

Jimmy was already lingering on the edge of laughter. He endured it again and again, but finally couldn't hold it back. "I will pretend not to know." He smoothly started writing with his right hand and wrote the name "Professor Javier".

The audience was already reeling with laughter, but Renly still had a calm look on his face. Compare that to Jimmy's helpless look, which was unspeakable. He was full of joy, and the laughter in the studio was like bright sunshine. It surged wantonly, and even the staff were no exception.

In fact, Renly really didn't mean it, but was concentrating. He needed to keep up with Jimmy's questions, otherwise the question and answer session would become protracted and lengthy, adding to the real drama. It should be that after all the questions have been filled in, the audience now has no idea - even Renly himself doesn't know what the full version of Jimmy's card is, so he needs to increase the pace of the show to avoid letting the show fall into the quagmire of boredom..

“Exclamation." Jimmy continued to ask..

“F***." The first word that came to Renly's mind popped out, but after blurting it out unconsciously, Renly himself was startled, and then he couldn't help but laugh.——

He was 100% sure that his performance today was somewhat derailed. Could this be considered letting himself go??

“No! No, no, you can't use that word." Jimmy panicked immediately, and the audience burst into laughter. Even Renly himself couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: This is the second time he has been embarrassed tonight, but once in a while, enjoy it. The fun of the show is also very interesting, although Renly still feels that the vulgar vocabulary needs to be controlled, because it is indeed not polite..

Jimmy quickly explained, "This is an American TV show, and we still ban this word. Maybe in the UK, but not in the United States.".”

The more serious Jimmy is, the happier the scene becomes, especially looking at Renly's smile that can't help but bloom, the more approachable and joyful atmosphere surges..

Renly spread his hands and said, "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I can't believe I actually said it like this. I guess it was all Cockney who just said that. We really shouldn't have opened that Pandora's box. "Then he saw Jimmy's ready-to-move look. Renly shook his head repeatedly, "Don't ask me what my Oxford accent is like. You can watch 'The King's Speech', but that's not the story of the 21st century. , you know what I mean.”

The crowd was laughing like crazy, and Jimmy could hardly hold it back, but he still put on an innocent face, glanced around the audience, and expressed his innocence with his eyes, as if to say: What did I just do? Nothing was said, right? Don't put a hat on me casually, okay??

Renly withdrew his gaze, put away his smile, and thought about it seriously, exclamation? And also need to be a little stupid? Then he gave a cold answer, "Well, talkative people!”

Jimmy froze in place, and the audience was full of questions: What? What did Renly just say??

Renly turned his head and saw Jimmy's pleading eyes. He suddenly realized, "By the way, the spelling should be……”

“"Dictation" students don't know how to spell it? Isn't this scene too funny??

Renly and Jimmy exchanged a look without saying anything, "FLIBB - I mean, two B - ITTYY, two T and two Y, Gibbitt, GI - two B - I - two T's.”

“Okay, it’s written, although it knows me, I don’t know it, but... very good, next, number." Jimmy murmured to himself, and the audience really couldn't stop laughing..

“Uh... four thousand two hundred and twenty-nine." Renly finished..

Jimmy finally laughed, lay on the table again, and expressed his protest with body language: Where did this number come from??

Renly also chuckled, "I swear, this is the number in my mind right now..”

Jimmy shrugged, regaining his composure, "plural noun.”

“Plural noun? Artichokes." Renly once again gave an unexpected answer..

“What? Jimmy's first reaction was to be stunned, and then he realized, "Are you talking about the artichokes that are used as appetizers or snacks in French cuisine?"?”

“Yes! "Renly nodded, and then saw Jimmy's pleading eyes again, and suddenly realized, "Oh, ARTICHOKE." Many words are like this. There is no problem in using them in spoken language, but they always have trouble in spelling..

Jimmy finished spelling carefully, and then asked like a primary school student, "The name of the store.”

“Macy's." Renly finally gave a "normal" answer..

“Body parts? "Jimmy quickly moved on to the next question..

“"Butt/butt." Renly used British slang. Many viewers looked at each other, but Jimmy spelled it out smoothly this time..

Jimmy whispered, "I'm very familiar with street language." He seemed to show off a little, and then returned to the game again, "A stupid word.".”

“Butt/ butt. Oh, no." After Renly blurted out, he shook his head in denial, "I think my thoughts were distracted by you, and I need to expand." Amid Jimmy's chuckle, Renly acknowledged He thought about it seriously, "Geronimo." But he shook his head again to deny his idea, "No, no, this is very inappropriate..”

Geronimo is a word with a special meaning. It originated from the American paratroopers during World War II. Every paratrooper would shout this slogan when jumping out of the cabin to pray for good luck. There is another interesting thing about the origin. The story is rumored to be related to the 1939 Western movie "Geronimo", which tells the story of the Apache, the last Indian tribe that resisted the invasion of European foreign "invaders" on the North American continent..

Regardless of whether the rumors are true or false, this tradition has indeed been passed down. Now "Geronimo" has become a symbol of courage or good luck. It is not only called before setting off for sports such as skydiving and bungee jumping, embarking on a new journey. , also has a special meaning.

But because the rumors involved Indians, the North American mainstream media, which was committed to covering up that period of history, was not too fond of such slogans..

Renly just thought of this word in his mind, but then he felt that it was not appropriate, so he shook his head repeatedly, "To be honest, the American talk show environment has restricted my hands and feet. I am not sure what my choice is. What's there.”

Amidst the commotion, Jimmy raised his head and looked at Renly dejectedly, "So, how much do you need to measure?"?”

“Are you sure you want to discuss this with me? "Renly threw the question back instead, looking very interested. Jimmy immediately gave in, "I think it's good to put 'Flibbittyy-Gibbitt' here..”

Renly nodded with a smile, and did not continue to pursue the fight. Then he thought again, "I'll think of another interjection: Ouch (Crumbs)).”

Jimmy nodded in agreement, "This is good, very British..”

Renly said with a chuckle, "It's very Hugh Grant-like, you know, 'Four Weddings and a Funeral,' or 'Notting Hill,' which has a similar pronunciation.".”

Jimmy nodded slightly, "He's also British. Wait, is he a London accent? Forget it, don't tell me..”

“Yes, Hugh Grant has a London accent, and he has a standard Oxford accent. He graduated from 'Oxford University'." Renly still smiled and gave an affirmative answer..
