「load」这个字原本是「装载」或「负担」的意思,例如:「load a gun」就是指将枪装上子弹。而「get a load of」在这边则是指「尝试」或「体验」某件有趣事情的意思。
a: check this out, man. my uncle gave me this crotch-rocket as a birthday present. 老兄,你看。我叔叔送给我这辆跑车型的摩托车当作生日礼物。 b: wow, that"s awesome. can i get a load of it? 哇,真是帅呆了。我可以骑骑看吗?

"you"re the man." 这个口语对象不一定要是男人, 只要是有人作了一件很厉害的事, 你就可以好象很崇拜地拍拍他(她)的肩膀说:"you"re the man."(美国人说这句话说, 常常会把"man"这个字的尾音拉的长长的)

英解:a very unpleasant or ugly place.
"armpit" 其实是「腋窝」的意思。可能对美国人来说, 这个地方是「汗水」、「污垢」聚集的地方, 所以在俚语里, "armpit" 就被用来形容「脏的令人不舒服的地方」吧。

a: 唉呀! 老兄! 這個房間真是髒得不像話。你上回打掃房子是什麼時候哇?

美国口语俚语(14)
have a cow 非常生气

不知道為什麼會用"have a cow" 來表示「很生氣」。實際上, " have kittens" 也是同樣的意思。

a: when i told my mom i would be home around 2 am, she had a cow!
a: 我跟我妈说我会到半夜二点才回家, 她气炸了。
b: duh!
