口语君教大家一些关于月份的俚语

非常实用哦,快来学习吧~

1

- April weather-

字面意思:四月份的天气

真实意思: 喜怒无常

四月份的天气阴晴不定,

就像人一样喜怒无常

例句:

I cannot bear my wife,

because she is always like April weather.

我不能忍受我的老婆了,因为她总是喜怒无常。

2

- Maybees don't fly in June-

“Maybees”是“Maybe”的复数表现形式。

该表达的意思是

“停止变卦;(想法)不再变来变去”。

例句:

I wish you would make decision and stick to it. Maybees don't fly in June!

我希望你做了决定之后就坚持下去,不要再变来变去了。

3

- A cold day in July -

乍一看,“a cold day in July”

可以翻译为

“七月中寒冷的一天”,

七月份的天气通常来说是炎热无比的,

所以说压根儿不可能。

a cold day in July

=

某事几乎不可能发生或发生概率极低

例句:

It'll be a cold day in July before

they keep good terms with each other.

想要让他们和好如初,那简直就是天方夜谭。

4

- That Monday morning feeling -

周一早上的心情...大家都懂 ...

“That Monday morning feeling”

就是我们常说的“ 让人不开心的星期一综合症”,

用一句话来形容,就是 上班的心情很丧

例句:

From the exhausted faces of my classmates can I see that they have got that Monday morning feeling.

从同学疲惫的脸上,我能看出来他们都得了星期一综合症。

5

- steal a march on sb -

steal a march on sb

不能理解成“偷了个三月”哦~

If you steal a march on someone,

you get an advantage over that person by acting before they do

因为这里的 march 首字母没有大写

所以不能理解为三月

而要解释为行进

steal 是偷,所以这个短语指的就是

那些先偷偷走了一步的人

也就是 抢先一步的人

例句:

We are going to answer this puzzle , but our opponents stole a march on us.

我们正要回答这个谜语,但是我们的对手抢先一步了。
