11月11日晚，第二十九屆奧林匹克運(yùn)動(dòng)會(huì)吉祥物發(fā)布儀式在北京舉行。吉祥物由5個(gè)分別以魚(yú)、熊貓、奧運(yùn)圣火、藏羚羊、京燕為創(chuàng)意的"中國(guó)福娃"組成。他們以“北京歡迎你”的諧音命名，分別被稱為“貝貝、晶晶、歡歡、迎迎、妮妮”。

請(qǐng)看報(bào)道：After years of fierce lobbying and months of secrecy, Beijing unveiled fivemascotsfor the 2008 Olympics on Friday, opening a marketing blitz that is expected to reap record profits. The five friendlies were introduced as Bei Bei, Jing Jing, Huan Huan, Ying Ying and Ni Ni - which, put together, translates to "Beijing welcomes you!"

期待已久的奧運(yùn)吉祥物終于揭曉，“吉祥物”的英文表達(dá)就是mascot，即被認(rèn)為會(huì)帶來(lái)好運(yùn)的人、動(dòng)物的形象或物件，例如：The team had a mountain lion as their mascot.（這只球隊(duì)將美洲獅作為吉祥物。）
