Jade: Wow, look at you! That Rolex watch must've cost you a fortune!

Alan: Stop teasing me. It's just a knockoff. I bought it at the night market.

Jade: Huh? It's not even 5 o'clock. How can we get off work?

Alan: You got the wrong idea. Knockoff means〝fake.〞I can't afford a real one.

Jade: That's true. I thought you just won a lottery or something.

爱玉︰哇，瞧瞧你！那只劳力士的手表想必花了你不少钱！

黑轮︰别取笑我啦。这只是个仿冒品。我在夜市买的。

爱玉︰什么？又还没五点。我们怎么可以下班啊？

（注：knockoff有「停止工作」的意思。）

黑轮︰妳搞错了啦。knockoff指的是「仿冒品」。我哪买的起真货啊。

爱玉︰这倒是真的。我还以为你中了乐透或什么大奖呢。

流行语放大镜

knockoff(n)仿冒品

小明有一天超不顺的，这都要从knock off a vase（打落一个花瓶）说起.那天下午他和妹妹吵嘴，打起cushion fight（靠垫大战），正当妈妈喊：Knock it off!要他们「停止」时，他丢出的一颗cushion竟好巧不巧正中妈妈心爱的花瓶，把它「打落」在地－knock off Mom's vase，当花瓶应声破裂，妈妈还来不及发飙时，机警的他就一溜烟抢出门去了。小明走啊走地，看到路边有人在卖同款花瓶，马上跟他讨价还价，对方同意「减价」五成－knock off 50%，才花1200元，卯死了！当小明抱着花瓶高高兴兴要回家时，突然听到警铃大作，原来有人在「抢」银行－knock off the bank，更可恶的是他们还knock off a guard「做掉」了一名警卫.赶紧回家报警，再把花瓶献给妈妈吧.，没想到妈妈一看便说：It's a knockoff!这下子小明脸都绿了。动词词组knock off可表示「打落；停止（做某事）；减价；抢；干掉；去掉」等意思，两字连在一起还可变成名词knockoff（也写作knock-off），指现在随处可见的「仿冒品( fake )」－仿冒品一出，就把真品给knock off了。
