他记得见过你英语_英语中你没见过的新鲜词汇

      中文里有“宅”“恐婚族”这样的城市流行语,英文中一样有这样想象力与构词法催生的新鲜词。这些新词的生命力有多久且不论,我们完全可以拿来让自己的语言更生动有趣,比如说中午太困了,可以说I got a mid-day crisis. 是不是很有腔调的感觉呢?

Good lenses, bad frames

人不可貌相

Describing someone who gives a bad first impression but is actually a good person. Someone who doesn"t appear to be competent, yet is extremely capable at what he/she does.

形容一个给人的第一印象极差、但本质很好的人,或者指表面看不出来,实则深藏不露的高手。

例句:Dr. Bruce is a spaz, but he"s one of the best doctors I know. You wouldn"t know it by looking at him...good lenses, bad frames.

Mid-day crisis

午间危机

When one is in adesperate need for a siesta because they become extremely tired in the afternoon and coffee isn"t cutting it any longer.

指急需午睡以补充体力的情况,这种时候通常咖啡已经不管用了。

例句:After that wild night of drinking, I had the worst mid-day crisis ever.

Clock Out With My Cock Out

下班high去喽

To "call it a day" at work so you can go party.

下班之后去派对狂欢(clock out即打卡下班,也可以说punch out)

例句:-Hey, dude, you coming to happy hour?

Nearsighted Date

“近视”相亲

As opposed to a blind date, where you have no idea what the other person looks like, a nearsighted date is one where you"ve seen a photo or chatted via web before meeting in person.

与blind date(事先一无所知的相亲)相对,指在相亲前看过对方的照片或者网聊过。

This can often lead to disappointment if one person or the other has supplied misleading documentation.

如果对方没有给你真实照片或提供了虚假信息,nearsighted date一样有见光死的可能。

例句:That"s the last nearsighted date I ever go on...her profile picture must have been 5 years, 3 hair colors and 2 kids ago.(这个见光死死得彻底啊……)

Happy Late Year

拜个晚年

When people are still saying Happy New Year, even though it"s already a week after the new year.

-More like happy late year... it was new years 5 days ago.

工作压死人

When there is so much work piled on your desk, movement from under it is nearly impossible.

桌上一堆东西要处理,想脱身而出,不可能。

例句:Hey, pour me a drink! I worked up quite a thirstdigging out from my work avalanche to get to happy hour.
