13、常会 1. Do you have any pet peeve? 你有什么样的怪毛病吗?所谓的 pet peeve 就是个人生活习惯上的一些小毛病, 例如有些人不喜欢别人碰他的电脑, 要是你碰他的电脑他就会不高兴, 这就是所谓的 pet peeve. (而非 bad habit.) 通常 pet peeve 都是比较无伤大雅的小毛病, 几乎每个人都有属于他自己的 pet peeve. 所以就有老美跟我说过, 2. Maybe Im going out on a limb, but I think we still have to invest it.或许这么作有点冒险, 但我想我们还是要投资它
14、. 一般人想到冒险, 直觉的反应就是, 3. I dont have skeleton in my closet.我没有什么不可告人的秘密. 每次竞选期间一到, 一定会看到候选人争相证明自己的过去是清白的, 没有什么不可告人的秘密. 这句话在英文里要怎么讲呢? 当然最简单的说法就是, 4. Are you sure you are going to set us up? 你确定你要帮我们制造机会吗?在英文里制造机会可不是 make a chance 喔! 虽然这是大家最自然会想到的说法. 正确的说法应该用 set up 这个片语, 例如 set you up 就是帮你制造机会的意思. 另外,
15、老美也很喜欢用 fix up 和 hook up 来表示撮合某人. 例如你有一个妹妹长得还可以, 你想把她介绍给你同学, 你就可以跟你同学说, 5. Probably. Its still up in the air. 大概吧. 但还不确定. 大家都应该常常有和别人相约的经验吧! 其实和别人相约是一件很不容易的事情. 一开始没女朋友觉得没人陪不想出门, 但就算有人陪了却又不知要去哪里, 而就算知道要去哪里, 又不知道要作什么. 不知道各位有没有这样的经验, 你问他我们今天见面要作什么, 他说我也不知道, 到时再看看吧. 其实这种情形中外皆然, 各位不必惊讶. 到时候再看看也是老美常说的一句话,
16、 简单的讲法就是, havent decided yet.6. Okay. Just checking. 好吧. 我只是随囗问问. 在囗语中我们常会讲, 没什么, 我只是随囗问问而已. 这个随囗问问在英文里当然你可以讲, 时你可以说, 7. Do we need to hit a shower first? 我们需要先洗个澡吗?Hit 是一个老美很喜欢用, 但老中很不会用的动词, hit 指的是去开始作某件事. 像是在囗语中老美喜欢讲, 8. Thats OK. 不用了.大家相信吗? 9. Just right place, right time. 只不过是天时地利而已.大多数的人想到幸运,
17、都会直觉反应 lucky. 但其实 lucky 有很多种表示法. 像有一次我问老美怎么追到这么一个如花似玉的女朋友, 他回答我, 什么我有免费的 T 恤可拿, 我就很潇洒地回答他, deal.10. Same here. 我也是.我想当大家看到中文 十句地道口语让你人气飙升来源 新浪博客 时间 8个月前 阅读 9584 次 字体 大 中 小 收藏 划词已启用1. What are you up to? 你正在做什么?假设你在办公室想跟同事沟通下工作情况,又怕耽误对方的工作,就可以先问同事 另外美国人见面时常用的问候语2. In the middle of something? 你正在忙吗?在上
18、面已经提到了In the middle of something? (你正在忙吗?)这句话,惯用的说法是3. Maybe Im going out on a limb, but I think we still have to invest it. 或许这么作有点冒险, 但我想我们还是要投资它。提到冒险,一般人会想到用 4. “Please give us your comments. ”请多提宝贵意见。 通常在会议或商务洽谈结束时,中方的人出于客套或者希望让对方提出自己的建议,总是爱把“请多提宝贵意见”挂在嘴边,但是如果只按词面意思进行翻译,麻烦很容易就会来了。比如直译为:“Please g
19、ive us your valuable comments。”,那么很可能对方会认为你在暗示他:你的意见应该是valuable的,否则就请“免开尊口”。正确的译法应该是:“Please give us your comments。”或“We welcome your comments. ”这样对方才会把想提的建议痛快地说出来。5. Probably. Its still up in the air. 大概吧。不是太确定。在工作中也许你会遇到这样的情况:自己已经很努力了,但是项目仍没有太大进展,或是上司迟迟不给予支持。这时或许有人会出于关心问你“项目有起色没?”但面对自己不能掌握的事情,显然没法
20、回答这个问题,只能听天由命。这时你就可以回答“Its still up in theair。”另一种情况就是与别人约会时被熟人撞上,私下里别人问起是否在谈恋爱时,你也可以小小地卖下关子说: 马上订阅:沪江英语手机报6. Thats OK. 不用了。不要小看这个简单句子的用途,因为很多人把“没关系,无所谓”的意思,所以如果你想很坚定地拒绝别人准备递过来的饮料,可以说 7. Hes out for lunch. 他出去吃午餐了。在同事出去吃饭的时候,他办公桌上的电话刚好响起,这时你该跟对方说什么?如果按照中文的词面意思翻译成8. “Youre in the pink !”你的气色真好!如果同事或上
21、司近来工作格外顺利,往往人逢喜事精神爽,气色也会跟着变好,这时如果夸赞一下对方,会给人留下不错的印象。要想说人“气色好”。“you look fine !”当然不错,可如果你说”youre in the pink !”就更妙了。在英语口语中,表示颜色的词用起来非常形象生动形象。9. Just right place, right time. 只不过是“天时地利”而已。如果意外得到了一个令人羡慕的美差,大多数的人都会直接反应出lucky这个词. 但其实关于幸运的表达方式还有很多,比如10. Same here. 我也是。如果你认同某个人的观点,又不想重复一遍,一般大多数人都会用 英语十句“最狠话
