日常生活口語中有一些常用表達(dá),比如“活該”、“胡鬧”,比如“放心”、“討厭”、“免談”等等,這些常用的表達(dá)應(yīng)該怎么說呢?
1. 活該!

e.g. You failed the test? serves you right for not studying!
You had it coming!
e.g. a: I gained weight!
b: Well, you had it coming, because you've been eating so much without exercising.
2. 胡鬧

e.g. stop fooling around! That’s monkey business! 別再混日子了!你根本在胡鬧嘛!
注:本句也可把monkey當(dāng)成動詞說成“Stop monkeying around!”
3.請便!
Help yourself.
Do as you please. (表示不需準(zhǔn)許而可取東西,就是請客人自在點(diǎn),不必太拘束。)
4.哪有?
What do you mean? Not at all!
注:如果只說“what do you mean?”那是不帶任何用意的問句,只是想問清楚對方的意思;但是它也可用于挑釁及威脅,代表不滿對方表達(dá)的意見。若加上“not at all”,表示你在否認(rèn)對方表達(dá)的意思。
