"他很糟糕"怎么说?"考试题目很烂"怎么形容?这些都是我们生活中常说的一些抱怨的话,你都知道它们的英语表达吗?赶快来看一看吧!
1. I am terrible. / I am horrible
我很糟糕。
这句话并不是说"我很可怕或恐怖"的意思。这里Terrible 翻成中文的意思是"糟糕"。比如有次我问一个同学上次为什么没来上课? 他的回答是:"I am so terrible. I keep skipping my classes."他的意思是说"他很糟糕,常常在跷课。"注意"跷课"是 skip classes哦。有时学生们也会用 terrible 来形容一个教授:"He is so terrible."就是说"这个老师教的很烂"。要是用 terrible 来形容一样东西,则表示该样东西很糟糕,例如形容食物,如:The food is terrible. 说的当然就是食物很难吃了!
Horrible 跟 terrible 的意思可说是一模一样, 两者可以互换使用, 例如:The coffee is horrible. 或是 Our professor is horrible.
2. That's so stupid.
真是愚蠢。
Stupid 这个词很好用, 它含有"轻视,不以为然"的味道在里面,比如说考试题目出的很烂, 你就可以说"That's a stupid test."或是有人在冬天的时候提议去游泳,你的反应大概就会是:That's a stupid idea. Stupid 不单只是"笨"的意思, 还有"愚蠢"的味道在里面。中文里说"笨笨的"还有点可爱的味道,但英文中的 stupid 则比较像是我们说的"愚蠢"的意思,听来一点也不可爱。
