Helen: What’s happening?

Rob: I think your microphone’s playing up.

Helen: Playing up 玩起来?

Rob: Sorry, sorry, I didn’t quite catch that.

Helen: Let me just push this button. There! 我的麦克刚才出问题了。But Rob you said the microphone was playing up?

Rob: That’s right. It wasn’t working properly. You see, if something isn’t working as it should be, we sometimes say it’s playing up.

Helen: 如果什么东西不像原来那么好用了,或者出现小故障,那么我们就可以说 it’s playing up. 只能是 playing up – not down?

Rob: Nope. Playing down something is a different expression that means something totally different.

Helen: OK. So as the picture on my TV at home is flickering, I can say my TV is playing up?

Rob: Exactly. And let’s hear about some other things that are playing up…
