Hello English learners（学习者）. Welcome back（在后） to EnglishPod. My name is Marco. And I'm Erica. And today we are going back in time again and this time we're going to be in the 1960s. That's right.

  We're going to learn some phrases and some slang（俚语） that were really popular back in 1964. Exactly（确切地）. And most of these phrases and words we still use today so it's very interesting and very good to know. That's right. I'm looking forward（向前） to this trip back in time. So why don't we get started with the dialogue.

  Hey man. I really like your pad（垫）. Those lava（熔岩） lamps（灯） are far out. Thanks for letting me crash（碰撞） here tonight. It's no problem brother. I wanted a pad where people could come, listen to music and just hang（挂） loose（松的）.

  You dig（掘） what I'm saying（比如说[用于举例]）? I dig it man. We should throw（(threw) 扔） a bash here and make it really happening scene（ 一场）. Yeah man. That would be groovy. Hey I got to split（劈开） for a while（一段时间）.

  Are you okay here by yourself? Don't worry（ 担忧） about me brother. You can take care（小心） of your business. Alright（ 好）. Peace（和平） out. Alright so great dialogue.

  Very popular in the 60s, the music, the mood（心情） and the words, right? So why don't we get down to business and look at the vocabulary（词汇） that we saw in this dialogue in Language Takeaway（外卖食品）. Language Takeaway. Well the dialogue opened and we heard this guy（家伙） say（比如说[用于举例]）, hey man I really like your pad. I really like your pad. Pad.

  Okay（好） so pad（垫）. Very informal（非正式的） way of saying（比如说[用于举例]） your apartment. Your apartment, right? And now you can still use it today. Yeah that's right. We often hear the expression（表现） bachelor（ 学士） pad（垫）.

  Okay a bachelor pad. So that's an apartment where a single（ 单一的） man lives. Okay so a bachelor pad. Usually it's very nicely（漂亮地） decorated（装饰） and really a nice apartment, right? Or maybe it has empty（空的） pizza buses all（ 全部） over the floor Marco. Also a bachelor pad.

  But so that's what pad means（意味）, an apartment. Yeah. They were talking about the apartment and he said the lava lamps are far out. Far out. Okay. It's far out.

  So that's really cool or amazing. Right. And now lava lamps those are those strange（陌生的） cone（圆锥体） looking lamps（灯）, right? Kind（种类） of a light with like（喜欢） some liquid（液体） moving inside it. Moving inside（在里面）. Very popular in the 60s.

  Yeah we'll post some pictures of that. Yeah and the lamps are far out. So now you can use that with other things, right? Like you are really far out. Yeah or this music is really far out. Okay.

  It kind of gives you the feeling like it's sort（种类） of spacey. Spacey. Yeah. Alright so the pad is really far out. The lava lamps are great and he was saying thanks for letting me crash here tonight. To crash.

  So to crash out of someone's place. Right so we're not talking about like a car crash here. No no no. So when you crash somewhere（ 在某处） what do you do? Well you are staying there then you're going to stay there as a guest（客人）. Yeah so like sleep（ 睡觉）, right?

  Uh-huh. Yep. And for free. For free, yes. So if for example you're going to New York and you're going to visit a friend you might（可以〔用于礼貌地提出建议〕） crash（碰撞） at your friend's house. That's right.

  So interesting word and it is quite commonly（普通地） used now. So why don't we hear some examples of how we can use it. Example one. Hey man can I crash at your place tonight? Example two. I lost my key so I'm crashing at my girlfriend's house.

  Example three. No you've been sleeping on my couch for a month. You're not going to crash here tonight.
