Tell Me More

"Rock" is the shortened version of rock "n" roll, which describes a popular form of music. So a word that means stone also means concerts featuring rock "n" roll bands like The Rolling Stones.

Rock is also used to describe an especially large, flashy ring. Example: "Did you see the size of that rock on her finger?" Police will tell you that "rock" today is the slang word for the especially dangerous illegal drug crack cocaine.

Rock can be used to describe something that is fun or wonderful. As in, "My dad just bought me a car. My dad rocks." If your friend is always dependable, you can say, "My friend is a rock." If you say, "Don't rock the boat," that means don't cause trouble. But if you say, "He rocks my world," that means he's amazing.

Rock是rock "n"roll的缩写,形容一种流行的音乐形式。所以rock也可以表示那些有像滚石这样的摇滚乐队的演唱会。

Rock也可以形容一个巨大的闪闪发光的戒指。比如:Did you see the size of that rock on her finger? 警察会告诉你,如今rock还可以用作俚语,用来形容极度危险的非法毒品“强效可卡因”。

Rock还可以用来形容某件事很有趣或很棒。比如:My dad just bought me a car. My dad rocks.如果你的朋友一贯很可靠,你可以说My friend is a rock。如果你说,Don't rock the boat,意思是别制造麻烦。但如果你说He rocks my world,那就表示他很迷人。
