there 是“那里”,但老外说 there, there 是什么意思呢?千万别理解为让你看“那里那里”哦。实际表达意思是:(尤用于安慰孩子)好啦,好啦
英文释义:something you say to comfort someone, especially a child
例句:
There, there, don't cry.好啦,好啦,不哭。 02now now是什么意思? 和 there there 一样,now now 也可以用来安慰人,同样是“好了好了”的意思。不过在英式英语里,now now 还可以表示“得了吧”,表示不赞同、不相信别人的话。 英文释义:said when you want to make someone feel better or give someone a gentle warning
例句:
①Now, now, Pikachu! it's all right! there's no need to cry!
好啦,好啦,皮卡丘!没有关系!没有必要哭呀!
②Now, now Roger, I'm sure you didn't mean it but that remark was in very poor taste.算了,罗杰,我肯定你不是那个意思,但那话太难听了。
03hush-hush什么意思?
hush作动词表示:安静、别说话。如果加上连字符号hush-hush则变成形容词表示:“秘密的”(kept secret from people)
例句:
In the end he was forced to resign but it was all very hush-hush.最后他被迫辞职,但这些全是秘密发生的。
04no-no是什么意思? 英语中的叠词翻译起来非常有意思,经常会变味。no-no表示:不合适(或不可接受)的事物=禁忌英文释义:something that is thought to be unsuitable or unacceptable
例句:
Talking about religion is a no-no in foreign countries.在国外讨论宗教是禁忌.
Current economic activity is markedly slower than during the go-go years of the mid to late 1980s
目前的经济发展明显慢于20世纪80年代中期到末期的迅猛增长时期。
06其他叠词补充
①so-so=一般般、普通的、中等 例句:Sommers performed a flute solo a few weeks ago that got so-so reviews.萨默斯几周前表演了一场长笛独奏,反映平平。 ②win-win=双赢 例句:At the same time, it has strengthened China's friendship and win-win cooperation with other developing countries.同时,也促进了中国与其他发展中国家的友好关系和互利互赢。 ③chop-chop=快点,赶快 例句:Chop-chop! We are getting late.快点!我们要迟到了!
