習(xí)慣用語:“學(xué)弟,學(xué)妹”英語怎么說?
習(xí)慣用語是日常英語中相當(dāng)重要的一部份,這些詞語在英語書面上跟口語上都會(huì)出現(xiàn)。由于慣用語并不是字面上的意思,因此需要熟悉每句習(xí)慣用語的意思和用法。下面是小編幫大家整理的習(xí)慣用語:“學(xué)弟,學(xué)妹”英語怎么說?,歡迎大家分享。
習(xí)慣用語:“學(xué)弟,學(xué)妹”英語怎么說?
根據(jù)資料,不能單獨(dú)用一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的單詞描述,而用一個(gè)句子。
學(xué)妹可以說:She shares the same major as me but is junior to me
學(xué)弟可以說:Hes in my major but a year below/behind me.
以下是關(guān)于師兄師姐,師弟師妹的一些英語資料,可以閱讀一下。!也許能幫到你!!
How to say "師兄"
During a delightful meeting with some readers last week at Beijing Institute of Technology, a student from Renmin University of China asked: "How to say 師兄/師姐 in English?"
Thats a good question.
"師兄/師姐", or "師弟/師妹",is from Chinese martial arts culture. Fellows learning from the same master (師父) are "senior/junior male/female fellow apprentices". As the saying goes, "The master teaches the trade, but the apprentices skill is self-made" (師父領(lǐng)進(jìn)門,修行在個(gè)人).
On campus these words refer to students whore studying in or have graduated from the same major at the same university. "Alumnus" (校友) may be the closest word in English. But a sentence like "John and I are both alumni of Ohio University" indicates both John and the speaker have graduated.
So, to translate "師兄師姐" into English, we have to describe instead of using single words.
Several suggestions are:
"Were both majoring in business at Ohio University." (我們是在俄亥俄大學(xué)學(xué)商務(wù)的同門。)
"She shares the same major as me but is senior/junior to me." (她是跟我同專業(yè)的師姐/師妹。)
"Hes in my same major but a year ahead." (他是跟我同專業(yè)的上屆師兄。)
"Hes in my major but a year below/behind me." (他是跟我同專業(yè)的下屆師弟。)

美國(guó)習(xí)慣用語:毫不出色 相當(dāng)平庸(音頻)
例如,在今天要學(xué)的第一個(gè)習(xí)慣用語里shakes就是名詞,而且根據(jù)習(xí)慣這個(gè)短語里的shake還帶有復(fù)數(shù)詞尾-s。這個(gè)習(xí)慣用語是:no great shakes。No great shakes這個(gè)習(xí)慣用語聽來意思是沒引起多大的震動(dòng)。換句話說也就是平凡普通、中不溜秋的東西或者事情。
我們來聽個(gè)例子。說話的人在對(duì)朋友評(píng)論自己昨晚看的一場(chǎng)電影。我們聽聽他是否欣賞這部片子。
例句1:Well, it was no great shakes. The story was mediocre and the acting was just so-so. I was bored except for that new actress - she can’t act but she’s a beautiful woman.
他說:嗯,這片子毫不出色。故事情節(jié)一般,演技也不過如此。除了里面的一位新的女明星之外,其它方面都讓我覺得膩煩。這位新星不會(huì)演戲,但她是個(gè)美女。
這里他用了習(xí)慣用語no great shakes表示這電影毫不出色、相當(dāng)平庸。
我們?cè)俾爞(gè)例子。這段話在談運(yùn)動(dòng),說話的人最心愛的棒球隊(duì)是波士頓的紅襪隊(duì),只是聽來紅襪隊(duì)今年的戰(zhàn)績(jī)讓他很掃興。
例句2:I thought the Red Sox had a real chance to win the World Series this year after so long without a championship. But they turned out to be no great shakes, just like last year.
他說:我原以為紅襪隊(duì)那么久沒有得過冠軍,今年一定有可能在世界職業(yè)棒球錦標(biāo)賽中贏得勝利,但是他們卻和去年一樣成績(jī)平平。
這里的no great shakes意思是成績(jī)平平,并不出人頭地。聽來這個(gè)失望的球迷只能耐心地再等上一年了。
今天要學(xué)的第二個(gè)習(xí)慣用語是:shake a leg。在Shake a leg這個(gè)習(xí)慣用語里,shake顯然是個(gè)動(dòng)詞,照字面意思看shake a leg就是晃動(dòng)一條腿。我們聽下面的例子來捉摸習(xí)慣用語shake a leg是什么意思吧。這是大學(xué)生在叫醒早上貪睡不起的室友Bob。注意他話里的shake a leg:
例句3:Bob! Hey, Bob, wake up! It’s already 9:30 and you’ve got that big math test at 10 o’clock. Come on, man, shake a leg! Come on, - you’ve got to get moving right now!
他使勁叫醒Bob,因?yàn)橐呀?jīng)到九點(diǎn)半了,而Bob十點(diǎn)有數(shù)學(xué)大測(cè)驗(yàn)。時(shí)間緊迫,所以他要Bob必須立刻行動(dòng)起來。
顯然他說shake a leg,是催促Bob趕快行動(dòng)。這就是這個(gè)習(xí)慣用語的意思。
再聽個(gè)例子。說話的人正焦灼不安地在房間里來回踱步,又一而再、再而三地看手表,他終于按捺不住,對(duì)在里屋磨蹭個(gè)沒完沒了的太太發(fā)話了,注意他話里也用了shake a leg:
例句4:Honey, we’d better shake a leg. The wedding is at eleven and it takes an hour to drive there. It’s already 10:15 so we better get moving because we’re already late!
他和太太要去參加定在十一點(diǎn)舉行的婚禮。他們開車去那兒要一個(gè)鐘點(diǎn)。而現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)十點(diǎn)一刻了。他催促太太趕快開步走,因?yàn)樗麄円呀?jīng)晚了。
這段話里的習(xí)慣用語shake a leg意思顯然也是趕快行動(dòng),可見shake a leg是用來催促旁人加快行動(dòng)的。它是非正式的語言,常用在家人和老朋友之間。
