11月11日晚,第二十九届奥林匹克运动会吉祥物发布仪式在北京举行。吉祥物由5个分别以鱼、熊猫、奥运圣火、藏羚羊、京燕为创意的"中国福娃"组成。他们以“北京欢迎你”的谐音命名,分别被称为“贝贝、晶晶、欢欢、迎迎、妮妮”。
请看报道:After years of fierce lobbying and months of secrecy1, Beijing unveiled five mascots3 for the 2008 Olympics on Friday, opening a marketing4 blitz that is expected to reap record profits. The five friendlies were introduced as Bei Bei, Jing Jing, Huan Huan, Ying Ying and Ni Ni - which, put together, translates to "Beijing welcomes you!"
期待已久的奥运吉祥物终于揭晓,“吉祥物”的英文表达就是mascot,即被认为会带来好运的人、动物的形象或物件,例如:The team had a mountain lion as their mascot2.(这只球队将美洲狮作为吉祥物。)
