地道的英文这样说Common Mistakes (3)(棍棍节快乐哈)
2007-11-11 08:13

周末英语咖啡屋又开张啦,祝棍棍们与非棍棍们都开心!开心有多种,不断学习充实自己,这种快乐最真实、最持久:)

感谢好朋友Lydia的精心总结,凭着对中国的挚爱、多年志愿教授英语的实践,她总结出中国人学英语的种种误区与大家分享。当她知道这种分享以Blog传播的方式让更多朋友受益时,倒反过来一再谢俺、共同讨论、并源源不断送来新的道地咖啡。Lydia让我更加喜欢那首歌:只有人人都献出一点爱,这世界就会变成美好人间!(俺可不觉得这只是口号)

你的Lydia真够哥们,不辞辛劳。一个外国人,不远万里来到中国。为了中国人民的外语事业。。。。

这个最典型。

Happy Bachelors' Day.诸位,棍棍节乐呵。
这光棍还真不好翻译。Bachelor,single味道均太差,又找不到好词替代。看来还得请教老忘。
我那书里有一对话:
有对象了?Are you with someone?
我?光棍一条。Me? I'm single.

 
25
2007-11-11 21:23
大致明白啦!^_^
 
26
2007-11-11 21:35
咱就不明白了,为什么有的词典“光棍”、“恶棍”都用一个英文词啊?要从逻辑上分析,光棍没人管,顶多也就是“饿棍”呀
 
27
2007-11-11 21:52
呵呵。。
偶已脱离了光棍的世界。。
哈哈。。。
 
28
2007-11-11 21:55
不过,总结的这些很不错。。呵呵
 
29
2007-11-11 21:56
呵呵,英语嘛,只要能很好的表达意思,让人明白,其实也不用那么严谨啦,嘻嘻~~~~

欢迎老师新生
 
38
2007-11-11 22:42
Single Stick 应该是种武术里的武器吧。有点像waster.
不知道老忘怎么说,美国人认为光棍这词用single为妙。我反正没招了。
 
39
2007-11-11 23:12
喜欢英语,但差不多又交给老师了,以后常来学习.向老师敬礼.

I think "Bachelor" would be better,both for male and female :)

针对9楼的问题,Lydia的回复是Let go of没有错:
Let go of the end of the wire means take your hands off the wire -- so it is correct the way it is. It means let it go.
Pretend you are holding one end and I am holding the other end. I yell out -- let go of the end of the wire, so you drop your end while I am still holding on my end. Please let me know if it make sense to you.

2007-11-12 08:29
厉害
学习
 
43
2007-11-12 15:40
再探讨一下Let go of vs. Let go off哈:
Let go of, 意思是放开,放手,所以这里应该使用let go of.
Let go off, 其实不是一个词组,只是Let 加 Go off. Go off 的意思之一是发生,所以Let go off意思可以是“使发生”。在这里是不对的。
 
44
2007-11-12 15:41
呵呵,学习哦!
 
45
2007-11-12 15:44
还有那个Bachelor vs. Single,
I definitely prefer Bachelor. 有点“单身贵族”的味道。
女性用 Bachelorette.
 
46
2007-11-12 15:46
最后还有,(Last but not least, he he),
Maybe I think so vs. I think so...
I think so 没有体现Maybe 的意思;看前后文,
我想可能会用:
1. I would think so;
2. I thought so.
 
47
2007-11-12 15:47
唠叨半天了。
既然已经成朋友了,就请包含拉!
 
48
2007-11-12 16:04
谢谢啊!一定常来哦:)

2007-11-12 16:24
