教你10句更地道的英文表达法

美联英语小编认为生活中多一点适当的赞美会更和谐哦!据调查,鼓励与表扬也是让宝贝成长的最佳法宝。说到赞美、鼓励我们都知道good/great,可是地道美国人一般都这么赞美自家娃!

1.Way to go! 做得好!加油!

Way to go是That’s the way to go.的缩写,是用来告诉一个人“他做得很好,请继续保持”。

2.You’re on top of things! 你掌控了全局!

On top of something意思是了解某物的现状、成功处理、掌控某个局面。

3.You rock! 你很棒!

4.You made my day! 你给了我快乐的一天!

make someone's day就等于make someone very happy

5.Right on! 好极了!

6.Sensational! 好极了!

尤指出乎意料地好。

7.The time you put in really shows! 你付出时间的很值!

这句表达比较正式,相当于你付出的努力最终有所回报。

8.A-OK! 非常好!

比较口语化,意思就是perfectly all right。

9.High five!

举手击掌,一般表示庆祝成功。

10.I appreciate your work./ I'm proud of you!/ I admire you.

我很欣赏你/我为你自豪/我敬佩你。

那么当别人夸你的时候,除了"Thank you",还可以怎么说呢?其实英语里也有类似“哪里哪里”的话,不信你看!

Oh! I am so flattered! 过奖了!

Ah! No kidding! 不会吧!

如何说地道的英文

1.我非常喜欢它 中国式:I very like it 美国式:I like it very much。 这个错误基本上是每个人都会出错的,原因非常简单,就是因为在使用中文思维,然后翻译成简单的英语表达,这是非常危险的一个习惯。 2.这个价格对我挺合适的 中国式:The price is very suitable for me。 美国式:The price is right。 suitable(合适的、相配的)最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上,如:下列节目儿童不宜。The following program is not suitable for children。在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。 3.你是做什么工作的呢? 中国式:What’s your job? 美国式:What’s your occupation? what’s your job?这种说法难道也有毛病吗?是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业,如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子,所以您要问:目前您是在上班吗?Are you working at the moment?接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢?Where are you working these days?或者您从事哪个行业呢?What line of work are you in?最地道的是说Occupation.顺带说一下,回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点,不要只是说经理或者秘书4.用英语怎么说? 中国式:How to say? 美国式:How do you say this in English? Note:How to say是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一,这决不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有:请问这个词如何拼写?How do you spell that please?请问这个单词怎么读?How do you pronounce this word? 5.明天我有事情要做 中国式:I have something to do tomorrow? 美国式:Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow。 用I have something to do来表示您很忙,这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做,躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙,脱不开身:I’m tied up。还有其他的说法:I’m I can’t make it at that time. I’d love to, but I can’t, I have to stay at home。 6.我没有英文名 中国式:I haven’t English name。 美国式:I don’t have an English name。 许多人讲英语犯这样的错误,从语法角度来分析,可能是语法功底欠缺,因为have在这里是实义动词,而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以,这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。 明白道理是一回事,习惯是另一回事,请您再说几话:我没有钱;I don’t have any money。我没有兄弟姐妹;I don’t have any brothers or sisters。我没有车。I don’t have a car。 7.我想我不行 中国式:I think I ca n’t。

10句经典英文翻译

让你妙语连珠的10句经典英文翻译 1.人生短短几十年,不要给自己留下了什么遗憾,想笑就笑,想哭就哭,该爱的时候就去爱,无谓压抑自己。Be sure that you have never had any regrets in your life which only lasts for a few decades. Laugh or cry as you like, and it is meaningless to oppress yourself. 2.于千万人之中,遇见你所遇见的人;于千万年之中,时间的无涯荒野里,没有早一步,也没有晚一步,刚巧赶上了。 Among thousands of people, you meet those you’ve met. Through thousands of years, wi th the boundlessness of time, you happen to meet them, neither earlier nor a bit too late. 3.记住该记住的,忘记该忘记的。改变能改变的,接受不能改变的. Remember what should be remembered, and forget what should be forgotten.Alter what is changeable, and accept what is mutable. 4.能冲刷一切的除了眼泪,就是时间,以时间来推移感情,时间越长,冲突越淡,仿佛不断稀释的茶。Apart from tears, only time could wear everything away. While feeling is being processed by time, conflicts would be reconciled as time goes by, just like a cup of tea that is being continuously diluted. 5.鱼对水说你看不到我的眼泪,因为我在水里.水说我能感觉到你的眼泪,因为你在我心里。 “You couldn’t see my tears cause I am in the water.” Fish said to water.“But I could feel your tears cause you are in me.”Answered water. 6.我们确实活得艰难,一要承受种种外部的压力,更要面对自己内心的困惑。在苦苦挣扎中,如果有人向你投以理解的目光,你会感到一种生命的暖意,或许仅有短暂的一瞥,就足以使我感奋不已。 It‘s true that we have been leading a difficult life, for we need not only to be under various external pressures, but also to be in the face of internal perplexities.You would be affected by the warmth of life if someone gives you an understanding look during your bitter struggle.Even a mere glance would make you moved and inpired. 7.我不去想是否能够成功,既然选择了远方,便只顾风雨兼程;我不去想,身后会不会袭来寒风冷雨,既然目标是地平线,留给世界的只能是背影 I wouldn‘t care success or failure, for I will only struggle ahead as long as I have been destined to the distance. I wouldn‘t care the difficulties around, for what I can leave on the earth is only their view of my back since I have been marching toward the horizontal. 8.后悔是一种耗费精神的情绪.后悔是比损失更大的损失,比错误更大的错误.所以不要后悔。 Penitence is something that enervates our spirit, causing a greater loss than loss itself and making a good words ! 9.快乐要有悲伤作陪,雨过应该就有天晴。如果雨后还是雨,如果忧伤之后还是忧伤.请让我们从容面对这离别之后的离别。微笑地去寻找一个不可能出现的你! Happiness is accompanied by sorrow, and it would turn sunny after rain as well. If rain remains

Thanks. 不用了,谢谢。 - Do you have any questions? 你还有什么问题吗? - No, I'm good. 没有了。 也可用作委婉拒绝。 - Do you wanna go to a strip club? 要不要去看脱衣舞? - I'm good. 不去啦。

Go by即“被叫做,人们常叫我……”,“To be called; be known”。例如: Our friend William often goes by Billy. 我们的朋友William,我们一般都叫他Billy。 一些美国学生不乐意用自己的原名,而偏好昵称,也可以用go by来表达: My name is Catherine, and I go by Cat. 我的名字是Catherine,你们可以叫我Cat。 3. Appreciate it! 在美国,每次下公交车的时候,大家都会礼貌地对司机表示感谢,有次看到四个小哥鱼贯而出,每个人表达感谢的语句都不同。除了常见的"Thank you very much!","Thanks a lot!"以外,就是“Appreciate it!" Appreciate it,完整意思就是: I appreciate what you have done for me.

让你脱胎换骨的十句地道英语口语

让你脱胎换骨的十句地道英语口语 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"In the middle of something?"(你在忙吗?)如果对方回答"Kind of."(算是吧。)这时你就可以继续你的谈话了,比如可以做一下谈话前的“热身”,问对方:"What are you up to?"(你最近在忙什么啊?),然后再展开你想沟通的话题。 另外美国人见面时常用的问候语"What’s up?"就与"What are you up to?"在意思方面很接近,都是问“你最近在做什么啊?”但是需要注意一点:语气的不同所表达的意思也不相同,比如你发现在未经你允许的情况下,别人正在你的办公桌上乱翻,就可以过去责问他"What are you up to?"(你正在搞什鬼?)。除此以外"What are you up to?"还有其他意思,比如你的同事正在完成某个项目,你就可以说"What are you up to?"(目前进展如何?)当然"What are you up to?"与"What are you doing?"意思基本相同,可相互取代,但是多变的表达方式会令你在工作期间的交流中显得更加出彩。 2. In the middle of something? 你正在忙吗? 在上面已经提到了In the middle of something? (你正在忙吗?)这句话,惯用的说法是"Are you busy?",但是死啃一种说法显然过于单一化,把眼界放广一点,对于同一个概念要有不同的变化。如果你经常用"Are you busy?",不妨换成"In the middle of something?",因为这句话的意思更为准确,比较接近于"Are you busy right now?"(现在是不是正在忙?)而"Are you busy?"的含意不仅可以解释为“现在是不是正在忙?”也可指“最近忙不忙?”。如果你除了"Are you busy?"之外,还懂得用"In the middle of something?"相信别人一定不会小看你的英文能力。 3. Maybe I’m 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"It’s risky" 或"It’s dangerous." 但是囗语上美国人喜欢说"I’m going out on alimb." 来表示这件事需要冒险。“limb”原意是指树枝,想象当你爬树时爬到小树枝上去了,你是不是不知小树枝什么时候会断掉?这种不确定的危机感,就是为什么美国人要用 "Go out on a limb." 来表示冒险的原因了。 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 give us your valuable
