★当别人在你旁边罗嗦个没完,你烦透了,说“you are so boring ”(你真烦!)。“shut up !”(闭嘴!)自然没错,可人家受得了吗?不如来一句“oh, come on .give me a break !” (帮帮忙,让我歇歇吧!)这多地道、多幽默。
★要想说人“气色好”。“You look fine!”当然不错,可如果你说”you’re in the pink !”就妙得多了,实际上,在英语口语中,表示颜色的词用起来非常形象生动。
★“他精力充沛”美国人说:“he is bouncy.”而不说“he is energetic ”,牢记一些日常对话中的活句式是你一把必备的钥匙。
★如:久仰,“i get mind of you “。比”i heard a lot about you.”轻松得多。
★代问他人好当然能用”plea remember me to your sister .” 或”plea give my best wishes to your father ”不过,若是很好的朋友,何不说,“plea give my love to jim。”
★在中国可不能随便说“我想你”,然而,当和西方人分手时说“i will miss you .”要比说“good-bye”或“e you soon”有趣得多,不妨一试。
★有人开会迟到了,你若对他说 “you are late .”,听起来象是废话,若说“did you get lost ?”,则更能让他歉然,可别说成“get lost!”那可是让人滚蛋的意思。
★别人征求你的意见,问能否开窗户等,你要说“you can do that .”就有点土了,用“Why not?”可能会好些。问“现在几点了?”用一句“do you have the time? ”实际上,问他人的姓名,地址都可以这么用:“may i have you name?“要比”what’s your name ? ”礼貌得多,不过警察例外。
★别人问你不愿公开的问题,切勿用“it’s my cret ,don’t ask such a personal question .”回答,一来显得你没有个性,二来也让对方尴尬。你可以说“i would rather not say .”(还是别说了吧!)。
★有时候,你想说什么,可说是想不起来,你可以说“well …”“let me e”“just a moment ”或“it’s on the tip of my tongue.”等,想比之下,最后一个句型是最地道的。
★交谈时,你可能会转换话题,不要只说“by the way ”,实际上,“to change the subject”“before i forget”“while i remember”“mind you”都是既地道有受欢迎的表达。
★遇到你不懂的问题时可别不懂装懂,维生素bt“i know”可能是中国人用得最多,而美国人最不能接受的一句话。当一美国教师向你解释某个问题时,你如果连说两遍“i know”可能是中国人用得最多,而美国人最不能接受的一句话。
★自制番茄酱当一美国教师向你解释某个问题时,你如果连说两遍“i know”,我敢保证,他不会再跟你说什么了。用“i got it ”就顺耳得多,要是不懂就说“i’m not clear about it .”不过如果你会说“it’s past my understanding”或“it’s beyond me .”你的教师定会惊讶不已的.
