语言详解

 

A: What would you do if Matt Daemon asked you out?

    梦特戴蒙约你出去的话，你会怎样？

 

B: I can't even imagine that he would talk to me...

    我连他会跟我说话都无法想象了……

 

【On the phone 在电话上】

 

与phone搭配的动词包括answer, speak on ,talk on。要注意phone之前要有定冠词the。“接听电话”是answer the phone，绝不可误用receive, speak/talk on the phone是“在电话中讲话”。而“你的电话”在英文里绝非your telephone，应说It's for you或You are wanted on the phone。

 

A:  Janet, you are wanted on the phone.

     珍妮特，你的电话。

B:  I'm sorry. I Just can't answer the phone right now.

     抱歉，我现在没有空接电话。

 

1) imagine  (v.) 想像

2) awkward (a.) 感到尴尬的,令人尴尬的
