“日渐肥胖”在口语里怎么表达呢?今天我们来扒一扒~
day by day
我们常说,沉迷学习,日渐肥胖~这里主要强调每天逐渐往某个方向产生变化。
在口语里,我们可以使用day by day这个短语表达“一天天地、日益 day by day主要强调“每天逐渐往某个方向或计划前进”,就像辞典解释上写的more and more as each day passes:随着每天过去越来越....。
eg:
Day by day he became fatter.
他的身体日渐肥胖。
He's getting better day by day.

我厌烦了每天工作。
I waited for news, day after day, expecting to hear.
我日复一日地等着,期待能听到消息。
