“手機(jī)鈴音”怎么說?

剛剛踏進(jìn)“新婚門”的孫悅?cè)涨耙活^栽進(jìn)了“斂財(cái)門”,由于她的官方網(wǎng)站向歌迷收費(fèi),孫悅被扣上了利用網(wǎng)站斂財(cái)?shù)拿弊印2贿^,孫悅本人否認(rèn)了“斂財(cái)”這一說法,并認(rèn)為自己“官網(wǎng)”的某些收費(fèi)做法并無不妥,比如,非“官網(wǎng)”會(huì)員須得交納一定費(fèi)用才能下載手機(jī)鈴音。
請看《中國日報(bào)》相關(guān)新聞報(bào)道:Pop singer Sun Yue has been recently condemned by netizens who claimed that Sun used her official site to collect money from fans. Fans could become a club member only when they agree to pay 10 yuan per month. Additionally, non-club members need to pay 1 yuan if they want to downloadmobile phone ringtones.
由報(bào)道可知,掛在網(wǎng)民口邊的“手機(jī)鈴音下載”可表達(dá)為“to download mobile phone ringtones”,不言而喻,“手機(jī)鈴音”就是mobile phone ringtone或可簡單表示為ringtone。
既然提到了鈴音,我們這里順便再提幾個(gè)相關(guān)詞匯——“彩鈴”可用polyphonic ringtone來表示,“和弦鈴”則是chord music ringtone,“按鍵音”和“提示音”的相應(yīng)表達(dá)為keypad tone和warning tone。
另外,撇開這起網(wǎng)上的是非官司,“手機(jī)鈴音”近日可是風(fēng)光無限,它終于從草民階層脫穎而出,被收入《韋氏大詞典》100熱門新詞,相關(guān)信息可點(diǎn)擊雙語新聞Do you know“mouse potatoes”?
