Can you figure out the meaning of the following slang?
1. Mum's the word.
1. Mum's the word
MUM`S THE WORD 是个很著名的成语,意思是“什 麽都不要说,保持安静”的意思。这里的mum是个像声词, 是模仿人捂上嘴之后的mmmmmm的声音。 Mum's the word =I will not say anything about成语来自莎士比亚的《Henry VI》的第二部分, 'Seal up your lips and give no words but mum'
2.at sixes and sevens
2.at sixes and sevens 乱七八糟;意见不一
该俚语一般认为源于掷色子,原为赌博行话。据说在中世纪时,色子面上的最高点数是 7, 如想求得13点,即一个色子6点,一个色子7点,这谈何容易,只有那些心烦意乱或处于 思想混乱状态下的人才会下此赌注,一试赌赢。该习语最初表示“漫不经心地下赌注”, 后来转而表示“心烦意乱”,最后又引申出“乱七八糟”、“意见不一”等意思。乔叟在 爱情长诗《特罗勒斯和克丽西德》中使用过该习语。 A: You have loused up the whole business; it's at sixes and sevens. 整 个买卖让你弄得乱七八糟。 B: The dice is cast. It's incurable. 一切都成了定局,没救了。 A: I feel so terrible. 糟透了。 B: Me too. We just went to a lot of trouble for nothing. 我也这么想,一切 都白忙了。
3.back to the drawing board
3.back to the drawing board 从头开始,失 败后另起炉灶
drawing board指“画板”。该习语直议为“(退)回到画板前”,引 申为“从头开始。失败后另起炉灶”。
A: How is Jim recently? 吉姆近况如何?
hang in there
Hang in there. Things will look up soon. 忍耐一下.事情很快就 会好转的.
Make your own sentences with the following phrases
way back 好久以前 We've been friends since way back. 我们老早就是好朋友了.
4. be catty
4.be catty 爱搬弄是非的;爱诽谤人的
英语中,cat给人的联想总是不太愉快,如cattish的意思是“狡猾的、恶意的、偷 偷摸摸的”。cat在英语中可用来指“恶意伤人的女人,包藏祸心的女人”,因 此catty就有了诽谤的含义。 A: I thought you would cooperate. 我原以为你会跟我合作呢。
B: Very well. Since he was back to the drawing board, he's been very successful. 非常好。自从他失败以后另起炉灶,就一直 很成功。 A: I know he will get back on his feet sooner or later. 我知 道他迟早会东山再起的。
