Video spoofs have become so popular that netizens have even coined a slang term, "egao," to describe the act of using real film clips to create mocking send-ups.
“恶搞”指“通过对公开发表的作品进行加工处理,以达到某种滑稽、幽默、搞笑的喜剧效果”。由此,报道中的spoof比较恰切地形容了恶搞“反摹,歪改”的内涵。
Spoof的诞生得归功于英国喜剧大师Arthur Roberts(亚瑟·罗伯茨),20世纪初他创作了一种Spoof喜剧形式,该剧融“滑稽、荒诞、讽刺和拙劣模仿”于一体。后spoof引申为“戏弄、哄骗、轻微的讽刺”等含义。
Spoof(恶搞)沿用了“滑稽模仿”这层意思,其近义词有parody,amusing imitation,send-up。看下面例句:
The show successfully spoofs the TV programs and commercials. (这场表演通过模仿成功地讽刺了那些电视节目和商业广告。)
