英语情绪如何表达
原文对白1. Hi, Matthew
2. Hi, Kiele
3. Hey, Matthew. I’ve been getting nervous about using a certain word that I used to feel comfortable with.
4. Oh yeah?
5. The word is ‘nerve’. I was shopping the ot her day. I went to the counter to pay for the goods and didn’t see that there was a queue.
6. An easy mistake…
7. Anyway, there was another lady waiting. And seeing me suddenly in front of her, she said angrily: “you’ve got a nerve!”
8. Wow! And how did you respond?
9. I said: ‘I’m sorry. But yes. You are making me feel nervous now.’
10. Oh
11. And that seemed to make her more angry. Did I do anything wrong?
12. Well, you must understand that nerve and nerves can have opposite meanings in different situations.
13. I only know one: If you feel a little scared or apprehensive, you ‘feel nervous’, even ‘nervy’. You ‘have nerves’. Everyone knows that.
14. They do. But we also have such phrases as having ‘good nerves’ which suggest that someone is very brave – in other words, that they are not nervous!
15. Oh, so that lady was suggesting that I had done a very brave and rebellious thing by deliberately pushing in front of her in the queue!
16. She must have done. Technically, nerves are those things just below the surface of the skin. They send messages back to the brain, explaining how all of the different parts of the body are feeling. But remember that these ‘nerves are just a metaphor. Although we describe the effects on your skin, it could be the effects of other people’s words or behaviour.
17. Ah, and ‘to be nervous’ means that these ‘nerves’, these feelings, are over-active, right?
18. Yes. You feel them too much.
19. But if you say ‘you have a nerve’, you mean that my ‘nerves’ are not loud enough. I ignore what is happening around me. That’s fine. But how does all this relate to ‘getting on my nerves’.
20. Well, ‘getting on someone’s nerves’ just means irritating or annoying them. Literally, you are not hurting or damaging their skin. But you are touching it. And the messages the nerves send to the brain may affect their concentration. But again, it’s just a metaphor.
21. Oh, I see. So I want to have ‘good nerves’ but not such strong ‘nerves’ that I can’t recognize other people’s feelings. I don’t want to get on anybody’s nerves.
22. Sounds like a good attitude!
What the f u c k is going on?(到底。。怎么回事?)
通常此话出于黑人之口,且口气最宜为疑惑,不解,愤怒等等。若是白人则多数时候会说-What the hell is going on? 意义相同而适用于更多场合。说此话之人身份通常为上级,且相处较久。不过如果你出差回家时看见老婆身边躺着个赤条条的陌生人,那它可就派上大用场了!
You son of bitch!(你个狗娘养的!)
令人意外的是,最爱说这句话的往往是女性。越高贵,越端庄的女性越容易在压力达到一定值时便会脱口而出。万万不要和有文化的MM顶嘴,否则被骂了还以为受表扬了呢!
All rise!(全体起立!)
国产英语老师最误人子弟的就是口语太差,爱说想当然口语。从小学到高中英语课代表一直喊的是-Stand up!当然没什么不可以,但为什么不说标准的话呢?就象我们朗读中文时说普通话一样!
It’s bullshit!(胡说八道!屁话!)
这句话一旦学会,包你用的乐不思蜀。用途太广泛啦!最绝是和老妈抬杠时搬出来,用你的眼睛直视她,以忏悔的口气说出。
Damn it!(可恶!)
此句往往从某个孤胆英雄的嘴中冒出,发音要轻,然口气要重!此英雄往往正面临生死抉择,例如是先剪蓝线还是先剪红线等,说时要有壮士一去不复返的气势!此句适合用在被MM拒绝时,向MM的背影说出!万万不可忘记要配合以右手中指的朝天一刺!
It’s none of your business!(关你屁事!)
此句已接近经典!当你在网上浏览不健康网站遭到网吧老板的劝阻时,它往往能建下奇功!
Come on!
此句因拥有太多含义,所以注释欠奉。但它确实非常necessary,所有的鬼佬一天不说个十七八遍就会浑身发痒,它的经典之处你就好好体会吧!
Ditto!(俺也是!)
本不是常用语,不过看过“幽灵”一片的人都染上了男主角的坏习惯。从来不说I love you!总是“俺也是,俺也是!”的把MM们气得口吐白沫!实际上你也可以说“Me too!”或“Me also!”,不过总是不够文艺腔,差了那么一点点味道和情调。
How can I forget such a beautiful girl/sexy boy?
此句在重逢某个你早已心仪的MM或GG是不妨拿来用用。当对方还沉浸在陶醉中时,你可以利用这段时间好好想想对方的名字!
I had no choice!(俺也是被逼无奈啊!)
最常用此话的要数那些被男主角逼到悬崖边上的家伙们!俺真的不是有意出卖你老人家的,饶俺一命吧!
