Rubbish is the usual word in British English for the things that you throw away because you no longer want or need them. Garbage and trash are both used in American English. Inside the home, garbage tends to mean waste food and other wet material; trash more often refers to paper, cardboard and dry material, although you can in fact use either word for either type of waste. Waste is used especially when it is considered in very large amounts, and is not often used in the context of the home. It is a general word which can also refer to the solids and liquids that the human body no longer needs. 在英式英语中，表示垃圾或废物的常用词是rubbish。garbage和trash皆用于美式英语。在家居生活中，garbage常常指残羹剩饭等湿润的废弃物，trash常指纸张、纸板等干燥的废物，尽管两个词也可以通用。waste尤指大量的垃圾，不常用于家庭生活的语境。waste含义很广，还可指人体的排泄物◆There were no toilet facilities and no way to dispose of human waste in a sanitary manner.没有卫生间设备，因此无法卫生地处理排泄物。In British English you put your rubbish in a dustbin in the street to be collected by the dustmen. In American English your garbage and trash go in a garbage/trash can in the street and is collected by garbage men/collectors. Refuse is a formal word and is used in both British and American English. Refuse collector is the formal word for a dustman or garbage collector. 在英式英语中，垃圾是rubbish，街上的垃圾箱是dustbin，清理垃圾的人是dustman。在美式英语中，垃圾是garbage或trash，街上的垃圾箱是garbage/trash can，清理垃圾的人是garbage man/collector。refuse一词用法正式，在英式英语和美式英语中均可使用，refuse collector与dustman或garbage collector同义，但用法正式。   see also junk ⇨ thing 3 waste

phrasal verb

(threw, thrown) (rather informal, disapproving) to waste your life or an opportunity or money in a stupid or careless way 浪费（生命）；错过（机会）；白费（金钱）◆You had everything you ever wanted and you threw it all away.你曾有过你想要的一切，却都一一浪费了。◆The team threw away a three-goal lead.这个队白白失去了领先三个球的优势。■ squander ˈskwɒndə(r); NAmE ˈskwɑːndər [transitive] (disapproving) to waste money, time, energy or an opportunity in a stupid or careless way 浪费，挥霍（金钱、时间、精力或机会）◆The company squandered millions on two dead-end projects.这家公司在两个没有前途的项目上浪费了数百万。◆The team squandered several good scoring chances.这个队白白断送了几次得分的良机。■ blow (blew, blown) [transitive] (informal, disapproving) to waste money or an opportunity in a stupid or careless way 挥霍（金钱）；浪费（机会）◆He inherited over a million dollars and blew it all on drink and gambling.他继承了一百多万元，全都挥霍在酗酒和赌博上了。◆You had your chance and you blew it.你本来有机会，但却没有抓住。NOTE 辨析 Throw sth away, squander or blow? Blow is the most informal of these and squander the least. Throw away is used less to talk about money and more to talk about other things. Blow is mostly used to talk about money and in the phrases blow your chances and blow it. * blow是这组词里最不正式的，squander是最正式的。throw away较少指浪费金钱，较多指浪费其他东西。blow最常指挥霍钱财，也常用于短语blow your chances和blow it中。■ splurge [transitive, intransitive] (informal, sometimes disapproving) to spend a lot of money at one time on sth that you do not really need 乱花钱；糟蹋钱；挥霍◆He splurged his whole week's wages on a champagne dinner.整整一周的工资，他一顿香槟晚餐就挥霍得一干二净。
