It is less frequent in American English, where vomit is used in writing and more formal spoken contexts, and the more informal throw up is used in speech. However, be sick is sometimes used in American English as a gentler way of saying 'vomit' or 'throw up'. 在英式英语中常用be sick表示“呕吐”，尤用于口语和不太正式的书面语。在美式英语中该词不太常用，在书面语或较正式的口语中要用vomit，在一般口语中则用不太正式的throw up。不过，美式英语中有时会用be sick作为vomit或throw up的较文雅的说法。 see also sick ⇨ sick 2 ▸ sick noun [uncountable] (BrE, informal) ◆There was a pool of sick on the carpet.地毯上有一滩呕吐物。■ puke /pjuːk/ / [intransitive, transitive] (informal) to vomit 呕；吐；呕吐◆The baby puked all over me this morning.宝宝今天早上吐了我一身。ⓘ When it is used with an object, puke is followed by up. * puke后接宾语时要加上up◆I puked up my dinner.我把吃的饭都吐了。 ▸ puke noun [uncountable] ◆to be covered in puke到处是呕吐物■ cough [transitive] to force sth out of your throat or lungs by coughing （从喉咙或肺中）咳出◆Sometimes she coughed up blood.她有时咯血。◆He coughed the dust out of his lungs.他把吸进肺里的尘埃咯了出来。■ barf [intransitive] (NAmE, informal) to vomit 呕；吐；呕吐◆Oh no!
