请问什么叫name calling

雲吞

字典上说，name calling的一个主要的含义是verbal abuse

但不明白为什么叫name calling

Xbfeng

给别人起带有污辱性的绰号叫做Name Calling。

sweatheart

简单的说是骂人吗

失落的我

=
call sb's name。

昨天下棋，那个家伙输了，走之前打了两个字母 sb
8 @+ n  M# g' U; P. b3 x! z
8 x: J1 O6 i+ }; G! p" e4 }; @我这个气啊，输就输了，骂人干什么。

三思

就是起外号，比如小四眼啥的。名词，表示这个行为。

1 M/ z7 c( }( e+ M0 q+ ~著名圣诞歌曲红鼻子驯鹿鲁道夫，就是典型的name calling. 歌词中有一句“Used to laugh and call him names” 就是起外号的动词形式，注意，叫谁的名字是call sb's name, 但是call sb names就是起外号了。

btw,这是我最喜欢的一首圣诞歌曲，我觉得all of the other reindeer赤裸裸的势利眼形象太可爱了！
