你還可以用put years on 描述某個事情,這個經歷或者穿衣風格讓他們看起來老了很多等等。比如put 10(數字) years on……
例:The leather coat that my aunt bought yesterday put 10 years on her.Put one’s finger on 發現、指出、找到當你看到一段話其中有2處錯誤,但是想不出來原句是在哪本書上看過的時候,put one’s finger on就可以用啦!可千萬別認為是「把指頭放在……之上」噢。To discover the exact reason why a situation is the way it is, especially when something is wrong.例:When I put my finger on him, he was stealing candy from his mother.Put one’s finger on 把手指放在某處,是不是可以認為是一種「指引、認為」的行為呢?進一步擴展可以解釋為「對某個事情並不十分清楚,或者某個事情似乎不太對勁」。例:There seems to be something wrong with her, but I can't put my finger on what it is.Put on the dog 相當於show off,即「炫耀、擺闊」,也就是俗稱的「擺架子」、「裝闊氣」。當有人在你面前裝腔作勢,或者用討人厭的語氣炫耀她的名牌物品,你就可以說她真的太put on the dog了.例:This girl likes to put on the dog so that everyone don't like to chat with her.
例:Stray dog is usually put to sleep if no one claimed them.
注意,在職場裡說put to sleep不是要殺死你,而是覺得某事太無聊了,讓人昏昏入睡。例:This boring company just put me to sleep.
如果有人跟你說a put-up job,你得注意了,對方不是要給你介紹一份工作。Something done to give a false appearance, in order to cheat or trick someone.例:The whole thing was a put-up job, little Tom made up and directed a play just to let his parents go home.
