Here's the thing. 问题来了、重点是…
想在一长串对话中提醒对方,就可以说Here's the thing.我要开始讲重点了。
这里的thing直接代表:重点,跟key point是一样的意思。
也可以说The thing is… 或The point is… 来提到:重点是什么?
Well, the project sounds nice. But here's the thing: we just don't have the money.
嗯,这个项目听起来不赖,但重点是我们预算不足。
Get real! / As if! 清醒点、别傻了!
当别人说出不切实际的言论或幻想时,你就可以跟他说Get real!或As if!叫他“别做白日梦了!”
Do you really believe that people are going to listen to your words? Get real!
你真的以为别人会相信你的话吗?醒醒吧!
总有一天我会中乐透,然后就能去环游世界。
Oh, come on. Get real!
噢,拜托,别傻了!
It's a long story. 说来话长
事实上,通常讲出这句话代表对方一言难尽,希望你:这很难说明白,别再问了吧!
Why did you come in late this morning?
你今天早上上班为什么迟到?
Well… it's a long story.
这个嘛,说来话长。
I've had enough! 受够了、受不了
上课、上班抱怨是难免的,想地道表达出:我不行了、我受够了!
有很多种说法,像是I can't take it (anymore)或I'm fed up with… 都适用。
I've had enough! I can't live with Kris anymore.
我受不了了,我没办法继续跟Kris一起生活。
Told you. He's not the right guy for you.
早就跟你讲了吧!他本来就不适合你。
I can't take it anymore! I quit!
我受够了,我不干了!
Forget it! You just said this yesterday…
算了吧,你昨天也这样讲。
My bad. 抱歉、是我不好
无论什么时候跟人家道歉只会说I'm sorry吗?
别这么严肃!试试用这句话来缓和气氛!但要记得My bad.属于比较轻松的讲法,而且是针对较轻微的小事,如果要慎重表达歉意的情况就不适合。
Tina!你又忘记洗衣服了!
噢!抱歉啦!
