　　Neil

　　Two easy words to remember when you talk about underwear. And remember they are always plural。

　　Li

　　I see. 这两个词永远都是以复数形式出现，所以决不能说 one undie 或者 one small. 记住这两个词是统称的内衣裤所以要加复数。

　　Neil

　　Yes. Let's hear some examples of how these words are used。

　　Examples

　　Linda, hurry up or we'll miss the plane! Don't forget to pack your smalls!

　　Billy, don't walk around the house in your undies. Your granny is coming to visit and she'll be here at any time。

　　Neil

　　Li

　　请大家记住这两个词是非正式用语，而且属于英语中的俚语。Well, smalls and undies can look good too - even if not many people will see them。

　　Neil Oh, you want to talk about fashion now。

　　Li Of course. I love fashion! Do you love fashion, Neil?

　　Neil

　　Er… not much… no。

　　Li

　　Come on! Come on, Neil! Let's go shopping! I can help you choose the trendiest clothes… you've got to have style. Let's go! Come on!

　　Neil

　　OK. OK。

　　Li Bye!
