加油的英文是什麼?

這是在比賽中對人的鼓勵說話, 英文有鼓勵人時, 不一定像我們說 "加油" 等含有叫人加把勁的說法, 而有許多其他鼓勵人的方法.
"XX (name), Go, Go!"------ 簡單地替人打氣, 即 加油
"xx, come on!"------- 同上
"XX, You Rock!" ------- 說你真棒! 作為鼓勵, 已帶有加油的意思
"Hang in there!" ---------- 帶有不要洩氣的意思, 鼓勵處於逆境的人

" Quickening "

"add oil" -- directly translated, hk-style english, it will be understood between hk ppl :) ,

if you want to say something to cheer up someone in a match/event , we probably will say:

1) good luck! / all the best / you are the best! ( because there is no exact translation in meaning from "加油" in chinese to english, by saying the aboves are like you are wishing/ blessing someone to be successful which is what you attemped to express)

2) come on , ( + the person's name)!
3) You can do it (man!)

If you want to say "加油" to a person who is working/studying, you could say:
1) Try hard.

鼓勵運動員加油的英語可以用：put up steam; come on; cheer up; go for it; 甚至 good luck 也適當。亦可在 GO 字後加上對象的名字，例如：Go John! Go John! 這便等於：約翰加油！約翰加油！"Do your best ! " 意即 "做到最好", 較適合鼓勵兒童http://hk.knowledge.yahoo.com/question/?qid=7007012003311
