英文经典谚语俗语30例详解

英文经典谚语俗语30例详解

英文经典谚语俗语30例详解老外平时除使用许多俚语(slang)外,也常夹些格言(adage)、俗语(proverb)、引语(quotation)、警句(saying)或是众所周知的道理(truism)。

这些玩儿,也与中文里不少的格言或俗语等意义相近。

使用起来,颇有「异曲同工」之妙。

1.Like attracts(或draws)like. 意思是:相同的人吸引相同的人。

(like 指similar people)这与另一句谬语「Birds of a feather flock together.」(相同羽毛的鸟在一起)意义相似。

(a=same)也就是咱们常说的「物以类聚」或「同声相应,同气相求」。

2.(Too much) familiarity breeds contempt. 意思是说:相处过於亲密,就会产生侮慢之心(不尊重)(即low opinion)(breed = create)这句话又与另一句俗语「Too thick does not stick.」(太稠或太浓反而黏不住)意思相近。

也就是说:「closeness brings disagreement.」(亲不敬,熟生蔑); 就是劝人:「君子之交淡如水」或「保持距离,以策安全」。

3.Once bitten(或bit),twice shy. 就是说:一次被咬,下次胆小。

或是一次上当,下次小心。

(shy = avoid)动词时态:bite, bit, bitten(或bit)这又与另一句俗语「A burnt child fears(或dreads)the fire.」(被灼伤的小孩怕火)相似。

说白些,就是:When you have bad experience, you don't want to have the same experience again. 这不就是「一朝被蛇咬,见绳也心惊」或「一日被蛇咬,十年怕草绳」吗?4.A stitch in time save nine. 意思是:「一针及时省九针」。
