迷你對話學地道口語第792期:別瞎說

Subject: Come off it.

第一、迷你對話

A: Now that you like the dress so much, why don’t you bring it home?

既然你這樣喜歡這裙子，你爲何不買回家呢？

B: Come off it.

別開玩笑了。

第二、地道表達

come off it

1. 解詞釋義

“Come off it.”這個短句用來告訴別人“不要說不可能或不正確的事情了”或“那些荒唐的事情可以不要說了”。可譯爲：住口，別瞎說，別吹牛等。

2. 拓展例句

e.g. Oh, come off it! You can't expect me to believe that nonsense!

哦，別胡扯啦！我纔不會相信那些廢話呢！

e.g. Come off it! England don't have a chance of winning the match.

別胡扯了! 英格蘭沒有希望贏得這場比賽。

e.g. Oh, come off it! I saw you later at the park that day. You weren't sick, staying at home!

住口，我那天在公園裏看到你了，可是你說你生病在家休息。

第四，咬文嚼字

Now that是複合連詞，意思是“既然，由於”引導原因狀語從句。例如：

Now that a decision has been taken, let's do it respectively.

既然決定了，就分頭去辦。

We mustn't let up now that we have nearly achieved our objective.

我們的目標既然快實現了,就不能鬆懈下來。
