英語熱詞：在家啃老的“奇葩族” kippers

羅漢小果1

房價(jià)太高，租金太貴,，生活費(fèi)不夠用，這些因素導(dǎo)致越來越多的成年子女不愿意離開父母獨(dú)立生活,。他們在家里享受著各種便利,，而且有時(shí)還會讓父母用退休金補(bǔ)貼自己。

The combination of high property prices and laziness has left many parents with the surprise — one that is not always welcome — of finding their thirtysomething children are not in a rush to leave.

高企的房價(jià)和惰性使得很多父母面臨一個(gè)不太樂觀的境地,，家里三十多歲的孩子并不著急出去獨(dú)立生活,。

They are “kippers”, an acronym for “kids in parents' pockets eroding retirement savings”.

這些孩子就是“奇葩族”,，英文kippers就是kids in parents' pockets eroding retirement savings（在父母兜里蠶食他們退休金的孩子）的縮略形式,。

Of those adult children who live at home, 30% don't work at all and 49% are in full-time employment. Of those in work, 58% live at home rent-free and only one-third are charged rent, averaging at 95 pounds per month.

跟父母住在一起的成年子女中，有30%根本不上班,，有49%全職上班,。全職上班的人當(dāng)中，有58%住在家里享受免租金待遇,，只有三分之一會支付租金,，平均每月95英鎊。（中國日報(bào)網(wǎng)）
