A: Argh computers! I hate them. Could you give me hand?
B: Yeah, no problem, you just need to look here.
A: Ah, your such a dab hand with computers. I wish I could understand them.
Helen: Is it a common expression, Neil? 这是不是个常用表达呢？
Neil: Yes it is, but be careful because it’s very British. You won’t hear it much in American English.
Helen: So what are you a dab hand at, Neil?
Neil: Well, we don’t usually use dab hand to talk about ourselves, but it’s a nice compliment to pay someone else.
Helen: 我们一般不用这个词来形容自己，不过如果用来形容其他人, 这就有赞美的意思。 Well, you’re a dab hand at English.
Neil: Thanks, Helen, but it is my first language!
Helen: Oh yeah.
Neil: Well, that’s all for today from Real English.
