"睡得晚"不是“sleep late”，这些你真的懂吗？

1. Sleep late

不是“睡的晚”，而是“睡到很晚才起床”，和get up late, sleep in意思一样。

sleep并不是“去睡觉”的意思，它表示睡觉的状态。例如“睡得好”就是slept well, “睡得少”就是slept little。

“我今天晚上会早点睡”不是I'll sleep early tonight. 而是I'll go to bed early tonight.

“昨天我很晚才睡”不是I slept late last night. 而是I went to bed late last night.

2. It's sick

如果谈论的话题是在说宠物，那可能就是它病了。还有一个意思是“狂拽炫霸屌炸天”

Did you see the game yesterday, it was sick!

你有看到昨天的球赛么?超屌的!

3. I feel you

不是“ 我摸得到你”这其实表示挺你，“我懂你”的意思。

Yes, I feel you, but money is not the major subject in this issue.

是的，我懂你的意思。但在这件事上，钱不是主要的问题。

4. nailed it

用钉子钉上去? 其实是顺利完成一件事，可以说是 “耶，我做到啦”。

—Heard you were fixing your roof? How did it go ?

听说你在修屋顶，还顺利么?

—I nalied it of course!

当然修好啦!

5. You are a chicken !

chicken 这里表示 ”胆小鬼，胆怯的人"

She is a chicken, which is konwn in the whole country.

现在全国人都知道她是一个懦弱的人。
 

“It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.”

失败很不好，但从不尝试取得成功更糟。
