William: Hello and welcome to Authentic Real English, I'm William Kremer.
Wang Fei: And I'm Wang Fei. I hope we can finish recording quickly today.
William: Oh, why's that?
Wang Fei: I need to get to the bank before it closes.
William: I see.
Wang Fei: Yes, just need to move some money around. 我需要把一些钱存入我的高利息账户。
William: High-interest account.
Counting the pennies: Are you savvy with money?
Wang Fei: 还要转移一些到我的理财账户里。
William: Investment accounts. Wow Wang Fei, you really are quite money-savvy aren't you?
Wang Fei: Money what?
William: Money-savvy. It means you're good with money. You know what you're doing with it, how to invest it, that kind of thing.
Wang Fei: Well, I guess I am. William 说我是 money-savvy 意思是我对理财特别懂行。
William: I wish I was a bit more money-savvy! But I am quite good with technology. You know, you wouldn't need to rush to the bank if you tried online banking Wang Fei.
Wang Fei: Online banking, 也就是网上银行。我一点都不喜欢。 I just don't really trust it.
William: Maybe you should try it.
Wang Fei: No, I just don't feel safe doing that. I'm not very... can I say... technologically savvy?
William: Yes, technologically savvy or you can just say tech-savvy...
Wang Fei: Tech-savvy.
William: Or you might say I'm not very web-savvy, as we're talking about the web, the internet.
Examples
I wouldn't recommend you go down that street after dark. It's just not safe. And you're not very street-savvy to be honest with you.
A: So what do you think of the new flower shop?
B: It's in a good location, and the owner is really business-savvy. I'm sure it'll be a great success.
Wang Fei: Money-savvy, tech-savvy...
William: Business-savvy.
Wang Fei: Yes!
William: You can be savvy about a lot of things. So are you going to the bank in the end?
Wang Fei: No I think I will sign up for an online account. Give it a go.
William: And I might buy those stocks you were suggesting.
Wang Fei: Great. And let's hope all our listeners are a bit more slang-savvy after this programme.
William: Yeah. Bye for now.
Wang Fei: Bye.
