【适用场合】
今天节目中，我们要学习的是这个短语on the D.L.的用法和意思。
这个用法其实是体育界的一种说法。
If you say one is on the D.L., that means one cannot currently play a sport because of an injury.
所以on the D.L. 可以理解成：“因为受伤或者身体不适而没办法参加某一项体育运动。
In this usage, "DL" is a shortening of "disabled list," which, in sports, is a list of injured players.

eg: Well, our two best players are on the DL, so I'd say our playoff chances are looking grim.
咳，我们两个最好的运动员都因伤没有上场，所以我觉得我们附加赛胜出的几率非常小。

eg: Who is going to pitch tonight if Sam is on the DL?
如果山姆今天因伤不能上场，谁来投球啊？

eg: A: "But I thought her knee was getting better."
B: "It is, but I hear she's still on the DL."
A：“但是我原本以为她的膝盖有好转。”
B：“确实是，但是我听说她还是在因伤不能上场的名单里。”

感兴趣的同学还可以看看，在口语中on the D.L. 还有其他的意思。
比如说可以指：secretly或者being known only by a few people “秘密地；私下地；不为大家所知道的”；

eg: Keep this on the DL, but Janet is planning to break up with Kevin next week.
保密啊，我跟你说，珍妮特下周打算和凯文分手了。
