第一次听美国朋友说“Hehe”,当时有点愣住,后来才知道他们的“Hehe”可是不是国内所说的“呵呵”,具体表示什么?现在,拿个小本,开始今天的学习吧!
1. Hehe ≠ 呵呵
“Hehe” 在美国人眼里可不是“呵呵”的意思
翻译为“嘿嘿”,代表暖心微笑,没有任何贬义。
I guess the reason is because of the Korean system that you are using in your PC, hehe!
我猜想的原因是因为你是在你的电脑中使用的是韩系,嘿嘿!
2. Eat sb alive ≠ 把某人活吃
Eat sb alive = Eat sb for breakfast
字面意思:把某人活吃,把某人当早餐吃
对某人大发脾气
You can't tell him that-he'll eat you alive.你不能告诉他那件事,他会气得活吞了你!
3. Eat your words
字面意思:吃掉自己话
承认自己说的话
I have to eat my words when he turned up on time after all.
他还是准时到了,我只好承认自己说错了话。
4. In store ≠ 在商店里
字面意思:在包里
将要发生; 就要出现
There were also surprises in store for me.
也有一些令人吃惊的事在等着我。
5. In the bag ≠ 在包里
字面意思:在包里
确实无疑,稳操胜券
