“快递小哥”其实就是快递员,由于快递员大都为男性,所以人们亲切地称之为“快递小哥”。英语中有一个词叫courier,Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English对它的解释是:a person or companythat is paid to take packagessomewhere。看来courier就是快递员的意思,而且还可以指快递公司。此外,delivery man也可以指快递小哥,man在口语中还可以说成guy,所以delivery guy也可以指快递小哥。【例】This group of twenty-odd Indians gather early every Friday, shedding their weekday personas as engineers, newspaper delivery guysand abaya salesmen, to become the Eleven Star team. Playing gully, or street cricket, these men have formed a brotherhood that exists on and off the field.
