【句子】Looks like you’ve put on a few pounds. 【Modern Family S2E19】
【发音】/lʊks/ /laɪk/ /juːv/ /pʊt/ /ɒn/ /ɑːn/ /ə/ /fjuː/ /paʊndz/
【发音技巧】put on a两处连读+闪音;
【翻译】你看起来又胖了几斤啊。
【适用场合】
英语当中长胖,比较常见的表达,可以使用
put on a few pounds或者
gain a few pounds 都可以。
单位也不一定要用pounds,如果你用kilograms或者直接说kilo也是可以的。

在这里put on的使用一起来了解一下吧!
就相当于:add some quantity of weight
或者看这样的一个解释,更简单:
you put on weight, you become fatter

eg: I must have put on five pounds over the holidays.
过了个节,我肯定又胖了五磅。

eg: You've put some weight on since I last saw you.
距离上次见面,你又胖了点啊。

eg: She put a lot of weight on after the children were born.
生完几个孩子以后她胖了好多。

eg: He must have put on several kilos.
他肯定胖了好几公斤。

口语里面我们也经常用gain来替代put on,也是一样的意思。
gain weight 就是长胖;

eg: I gained a lot of weight while I was on holiday.
我放假期间胖了好多。

eg: I’ve gained weight recently.
我最近胖了。
