英语口语:“小心”的十种英文说法(在线收听) |
经常看到国人翻译的警示牌被歪果仁笑掉了大牙,今天就来看看如何警告别人小心,千万不要再让同胞们小心地摔倒了,pia! 在步入正题前,让我们先来看看同胞们惨痛的摔倒经历!出自维基百科的Chinglish盘点,天,丢大人了,都已经被维基百科收录了,额…我发誓一定要学好英文。
小心滑倒!
Chinglish: Slip carefully (sometimes Carefully slip and fall down).
Actually: Be careful not to slip and fall.
歪果仁OS:哈哈,笑死我了,小心地滑倒,OMG,滑倒还分小心和不小心吗?是不是像成龙的duang体一样,分为Mr skinny fell,pia和Mr fat fell,duang,中国人的语言真是博大精深。
注意安全,坡道路滑。
Chinglish: To take notice of safe: The slippery are very crafty.
Actually: Pay attention to safety. The ramp is slippery.
歪果仁吐槽:小心就小心呗,怎么连语法都用错,slippery和crafty是一个意思好吧,slippery是形容词好吧,狡猾的是狡猾的,中间还用复数are,真是服了。
当别人准备离开去某地时,我们通常可用以下表达告诉Ta保重:
1. Take care.
Take care on the roads. They are really icy.
路上小心,外面冷。
Tips:当我跟别人告别时,我总是这样叮嘱对方。
2. Mind how you go.
It was great seeing you. Mind how you go, the traffic is terrible on the motorway.
见到你很开心。路上多加小心,高速公路路况很差的。
当人们马上就要面临危险时,我们用下面的说法:
3. Look out!
Look out! There’s a car coming.
小心,有车来了!
4. Watch out!
Watch out! The pavement is slippery.
小心!路滑。
如果你要搬走或挪动重物和易碎物品时,你身边的人一定会叮嘱你要加小心或轻拿轻放。他们或许是担心你摔倒或许是担心你弄坏了物品。
那么可以用下面的方法叮嘱你:
5. Easy does it.
Ok, you’re almost there, easy does it. That’s great. Thank you so much for helping me move the sofa.
好了,基本快搞定了,轻轻地啊。太棒了,非常感谢你帮我挪沙发。
6. Steady.

小心点!你确定你不需要帮你拎包?
Tips: 大部分人都会建议你不要冒险。毕竟,避免过多冒险是我们人类的本性,除非你天生是个冒险家。
7. Better safe than sorry.
You should pack a couple of torches and some blankets for your journey. Better safe than sorry. (We can also say: it’s better to be safe than sorry. )

8. You can’t be too careful.
I’ve locked all the doors and windows and padlocked the gate. You can’t be too careful these days.
