Busting a move on a Friday night could well lead to landing a gold medal at the Olympics, if the organisers of Paris 2024 have their way.

如果巴黎2024年奧運會的組織者能夠如願以償，那麼每周五晚上練練舞，很有可能會在奧運會上奪得一枚金牌。

The organisers for the Parisian installment of the world"s greatest sporting event in five years" time have announced breakdancing as a potential new sport.

奧運會是五年後舉辦的最盛大世界性體育賽事，巴黎組織者們宣布霹靂舞可能成為一項新運動項目。

According to head of the 2024 organising committee Tony Estanquet, the proposal is in part an attempt to make the Games "more urban" and "more artistic".

2024年奧運會組委會主席托尼?埃斯坦奎特表示，這項提議在一定程度上是為了讓奧運會「更城市化」、「更具藝術性」。

The sport will be one of four proposed to the International Olympic Committee (IOC) along with surfing, climbing and skateboarding. The ICO must reach a decision on its inclusion by December 2020.

這項運動將與衝浪、攀岩和滑板一起被提交給國際奧委會。國際奧委會必須在2020年12月之前就是否納入該運動作出決定。

News of the announcement has been greeted with shock and surprise by sports fans on Twitter, with some suggesting it must be an early April Fools" day joke, while others even proposed Sportsmail columnist Peter Crouch as potential Team GB candidates.

這一消息在推特上引起了體育迷們的震驚和驚訝，一些人認為這一定是愚人節的玩笑，而另一些人甚至提議體育專欄作家彼得?克勞奇代表英國隊參加霹靂舞比賽。

Paco Boxy, director of the British Breaking League which organises competitions across the UK, said he was delighted by the news.

在英國各地組織比賽的「British Breaking League」負責人帕克?博克西說，他對這個消息感到高興。

"For me personally I think it"s fantastic news, not only for the young generation but also for the credibility of breakdancing to be classed as a sport," the 35-year-old said.

這位35歲的男子說：「就我個人而言，我認為這是一個非常棒的消息，不僅對年輕一代來說是這樣，也增加了霹靂舞被列為一項運動的可信度。」

"A lot of people will look at breakdancing as just spinning on your head or doing the worm, but the people that I know train like athletes. They go to the gym swimming, train every day.

「很多人會認為霹靂舞只是頭在地板上旋轉或者像蟲子一樣蠕動，但我認識的人訓練起來就像運動員一樣。他們去體育館游泳，每天訓練。」

"For this to go in the Olympics is massive, absolutely humongous."

「把這個列入奧運會上將意義重大，絕對是極其重要的。」

Competitive breakdancing, or breaking, is unsurprisingly a little more complicated than your average Friday night shuffle.

毫無疑問，競爭性的霹靂舞比你周五晚上跳的鬼步舞是要複雜一些的。

The sport was included in the Youth Olympic Games in Buenos Aires in 2018, with Russia"s Sergei Chernyshev, competing under the name Bumblebee, winning the first gold medal in the boys" event.

霹靂舞曾被列入2018年布宜諾斯艾利斯青奧會的比賽項目，俄羅斯選手謝爾蓋?切爾尼舍夫以大黃蜂的名字參賽，贏得了男子項目的首枚金牌。

In 2018, breaking saw 12 male and twelve female dancers compete over two days in three events, men"s, women"s and mixed team. The dancers faced off in a battle format and were judged and scored.

2018年，12名男舞者和12名女舞者在男子、女子和混合團隊的三項賽事中進行了為期兩天的霹靂舞比賽。舞者們以戰鬥的形式對峙，接受評判和打分。

Breakdancing probably wouldn"t take the title as the most unusual sport to have featured at the Olympic Games.

霹靂舞可能不會是奧運會上最不尋常的項目。

Horse long jump featured at the 1900 Games - also in Paris - and was won by Constant van Langhendonck of Belgium on his horse "Extra-dry".

1900年巴黎奧運會上，比利時選手康斯坦?范?朗登克騎著他的馬「Extra Dry」贏得了跳遠比賽的冠軍。

Bizarrely, solo synchronised swimming featured at three Olympic Games between 1984 and 1992 as a women-only event. Tracie Ruiz of the United States took gold in its first appearance, in LA in 1984.

另外還有，在1984年至1992年的三屆奧運會上，單人花樣游泳都是女子項目。1984年，美國選手特蕾西?魯伊斯在洛杉磯第一次亮相就摘得金牌。
