美国人的口头禅
1. After you.你先请。这是一句很常用的客套话,在进/出门,上车得场合你都可以表现
一下。 (好象现在女士不愿意你这么做,特别是那些女权主义者,我还记得这么一段话:
一个女士对一个让她先行的男士说:you do this because i am a woman?那个男士回答说
:i do this not because you are a woman but because i am a man!i love this guy
!

2. I just couldn''t help it.我就是忍不住。想想看,这样一个漂亮的句子可用于多少
个场合?下面是随意举的一个例子:
I was deeply moved by the film and I cried and cried. I just couldn't help it
.

3. Don't take it to heart. 别往心里去,别为此而忧虑伤神。生活实例:
This test isn''t that important. Don't take it to heart. 安慰人的超级句子。


4. We'd better be off.我们该走了。It's getting late. We'd better be off .


5. Let''s face it. 面对现实吧。常表明说话人不愿意逃避困难的现状。
参考例句:I know it''s a difficult situation. Let''s face it, OK?
很棒啊,年轻人犯错误,上帝都会原谅,remember?但是犯了错误,你必须面对他,let''
s face it,或者是:let''s face the music.

6. Let''s get started.咱们开始干吧。劝导别人时说:Don''t just talk. Let''s get
started

let''s get started.
let''s start.
let''s do it right now.
let''s hit sth.
let''s rock&roll.
let''s put our hands on sth.

7. I''m really dead.我真要累死了。坦诚自己的感受时说:After all that work, I’
m really dead.

8. I''ve done my best.我已尽力了。这句话,很有用,失败有时难免,但是你要是可以
说,i''ve done my best.or i spare no efforts.就不必遗憾,毕竟,man supposes,go
d disposes.

9. Is that so?真是那样吗?常用在一个人听了一件事后表示惊讶、怀疑。

10. Don''t play games with me!别跟我耍花招!

11. I don''t know for sure.我不确切知道。
Stranger: Could you tell me how to get to the town hall?
Tom: I don''t know for sure. Maybe you could ask the policeman over there.

12. I''m not going to kid you.我不是跟你开玩笑的。
Karin: You quit the job? You are kidding.
Jack: I''m not going to kid you. I''m serious.

13. That''s something. 太好了,太棒了。
A: I''m granted a full scholarship for this semester.
B: Congratulations. That''s something.

14. Brilliant idea!这主意真棒!这主意真高明!

15. Do you really mean it? 此话当真?
Michael:Whenever you are short of money, just come to me.
David: Do you really mean it? ?

16. You are a great help.你帮了大忙

17. I couldn''t be more sure. 我再也肯定不过。

18. I am behind you.我支持你。
A: Whatever decision you''re going to make, I am behind you.

19. I''m broke.我身无分文。
i am penniless.

20. Mind you!请注意!听着!(也可仅用Mind。)
模范例句:Mind you! He''s a very nice fellow though bad-tempered.

21. You can count on it.你尽管相信好了,尽管放心。
A:Do you think he will come to my birthday party?
B: You can count on it.

22. I never liked it anyway.我一直不太喜欢这东西。当朋友或同事不小心摔坏你的东
西时就可以用上这句话给他一个台阶,打破尴尬局面:Oh, don''t worry. I''m thinkin
g of buying a new one. I never liked it anyway.

23. That depends.看情况再说。 (on sth)
例:I may go to the airport to meet her. But that depends.

24. Congratulations.恭喜你,祝贺你。

25. Thanks anyway.无论如何我还是得谢谢你。当别人尽力要帮助你却没帮成时,你就可
以用这个短语表示谢意。

26. It''s a deal.一言为定
Harry: Haven''t seen you for ages. Let''s have a get-together next week.
Jenny: It''s a deal
电影里经常听到,it''s a deal,that is a good deal.或是两个人打算达成某个协议或是做成某个生意
