「愛玉」的英文說法是 aiyu jellyice jelly
它主要在台灣和新加坡較常見,所以對大部份老外來說是個新奇的玩意兒
在跟老外說這個東西的問題是,aiyu 是個音譯的說法
若他不知道這是什麼,說了他還是不會懂,只會從名稱知道它是一種果凍(jelly)
ice jelly 則是新加坡的說法,沒有在新加坡生活過的老外也很難想像ice jelly 到底是什麼
所以跟老外說這是 aiyu jellyice jelly,只是向他介紹這種東西的名稱
至於它到底是什麼,還是得稍微解釋一下才行
比如一開始去夜市看到,可以跟他們介紹說:
This is called aiyu jelly, or ice jelly in Singapore.
(這個叫做愛玉凍,在新加坡被稱為文頭雪。)
然後可以進一步說明:
The jelly is made from the seeds of a plant in the fig family.
(這種果凍是用一種無花果科的植物種子做成的。)
It is usually served with lemon juice, sometimes also with shaved ice.
(它通常會搭配檸檬汁,有時也會搭配刨冰。)
