剛剛踏進“新婚門”的孫悅?cè)涨耙活^栽進了“斂財門”，由于她的官方網(wǎng)站向歌迷收費，孫悅被扣上了利用網(wǎng)站斂財?shù)拿弊印２贿^，孫悅本人否認了“斂財”這一說法，并認為自己“官網(wǎng)”的某些收費做法并無不妥，比如，非“官網(wǎng)”會員須得交納一定費用才能下載手機鈴音。

請看《中國日報》相關新聞報道：Pop singer Sun Yue has been recently condemned by netizens who claimed that Sun used her official site to collect money from fans. Fans could become a club member only when they agree to pay 10 yuan per month. Additionally, non-club members need to pay 1 yuan if they want to download mobile phone ringtones.

由報道可知，掛在網(wǎng)民口邊的“手機鈴音下載”可表達為“to download mobile phone ringtones”，不言而喻，“手機鈴音”就是mobile phone ringtone或可簡單表示為ringtone。

既然提到了鈴音，我們這里順便再提幾個相關詞匯——“彩鈴”可用polyphonic ringtone來表示，“和弦鈴”則是chord music ringtone，“按鍵音”和“提示音 ”的相應表達為keypad tone和warning tone。

另外，撇開這起網(wǎng)上的是非官司，“手機鈴音”近日可是風光無限，它終于從草民階層脫穎而出，被收入《韋氏大詞典》100熱門新詞，相關信息可點擊雙語新聞Do you know“mouse potatoes”?
