“抛媚眼”英语怎么说

　　Jessica在北京学汉语，她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教她。今天是Lulu要问的：抛媚眼。
　　JESSICA: Lulu，What's up?
　　LL: 我要去赴约，有人请我吃饭！
　　JESSICA: 这么好？
　　LL: 那当然！ 请客的是一对情侣，俩人是在我家的Party上认识的，所以我算他们的媒人，他们当然要请客啦！ 当时，那女生一眼就看上那男生了，马上向他狂抛媚眼！ 就是……呃……threw pretty looks at him.。。
　　JESSICA: Haha! 我明白了，She made eyes at him. To make eyes at someone means to flirt with someone。
　　LL: 哦，to make eyes at someone就是向某人抛媚眼。你知道么，有些人喜欢乱放电。比如我认识一男生，He makes eyes at every young woman he knows! 他对认识的女生都乱抛媚眼！
　　JESSICA: Oh yeah? I bet he also uses lame pickup lines to those women。
　　LL: Pickup line我听说过，就是跟女孩儿搭讪时说的话，对不对？
　　JESSICA: Exactly! For example, the typical pickup line at the bar is "can I buy you a drink?"
　　LL: 还有那句老掉牙的：小姐，我们在哪儿见过吧？
　　JESSICA: Haha! Seems like you've been asked this question many times!
　　LL: 呵呵。别说我了，还是说我那两个朋友吧，真是有缘人，在我家见了一次面，就好上了！
　　JESSICA: They really hit it off!
　　LL: Hit if off? 打什么了？
　　Jessica: No. To hit it off means to like each other very quickly。
　　LL: 哦！ Hit it off就是一见如故，才聊两句就觉得特对路！我这两个朋友——They hit if off instantly! I won't be surprised if the girl shows off her engagement ring to me tonight!
　　Jessica: Wow, good for her! Now tell me what you've learned today!
　　LL: 第一，make eyes at someone是冲某人抛媚眼；
　　第二，pickup line是和女孩儿搭讪时所说的话；
　　第三，hit it off是一见如故。
