Look good

2021-02-17 美國日常生活口語詞句


Look good，超級簡單的兩個單詞兒，口語中卻能適用於很多不同的語言環境，翻譯起來也可以非常多樣化 (versatile /'vɜrsətəl/)。按照字面意思，是指：看上去狀態很好，看起來不錯，看起來很美/很帥，很好看，氣色不錯等等。而按照意譯的話，表達的意思是：很有面子，很露臉，很榮光。這樣看來，look good 和它的反義詞 look bad 跟中文裡的 "好看" 和 "難看" 基本是完美對接。

第一層意思，在日常生活中可以經常遇到也可以經常用。比如說：I haven't see you in a while. You look good!  (好久不見，你看上去狀態很好嘛。) 或者：He looks really good in that navy suit. (他穿那身海藍色西裝真帥。) 再比如：She always looks good in pictures. How does she do that? Any tricks? (她在照片上總是特別好看，是如何做到的？有什麼小竅門嗎？)  Look good 當然也可以用比較級，比如說：You look good to begin with, and you'll look even better if you start working out. (你本來就很不錯，如果開始運動的話會更棒。) 再比如：I think I look the best when I feel confident. (當我感覺自信的時候，我看起來狀態最好。)



有很多電影橋段，主人公精心穿著一番，跟鏡子裡的自己說：I look good! (我真帥/我真美!) 或者 I look damn good! (我帥/美呆了!)  瞬間自信心爆棚。這招挺好用的呵呵，下次盛裝出門或者有重要事情的時候，可以試試哈。When you feel good, you look good.  (感覺好時狀態就好。) When you look good, you feel good. (外表好看時自我感覺就會好。)  Bill Gates 曾經說：If you can't make it good, at least make it looks good. (無法把事情變好的時候，至少讓它看起來還不錯。)


Look good 的另一個意思就是：很有面兒，很露臉，很榮光。例如有個洗髮水廣告，用了這句話：If you look good, we look good. (您的美麗是我們的光榮。) 前半句的 look good 是直譯，而後一個 look good 是意譯。再比如：We'll look good if we can finish the project no one else can. (要是能完成別人做不了的那個項目，我們會很露臉的。) 或者：He did all that work just to look good. (他做了那麼多工作就是為了讓別人都覺得他很棒。)


Look good 在表達 "有面兒" 這層意思時，否定句 (don't look good 或者 look bad) 用的更多。翻譯成：丟臉，難看，下不來臺。比如說：I don't look good if you keep ignoring me. (你總是不理我，我很沒面子呀。)  再比如：在球場上，教練對球員說：Go win the game! Don't make me look bad!  (打贏比賽，別給我丟臉！)  再比如：You just made me look bad at the meeting by asking a question I can't answer. (你剛才在會上問我一個我回答不了的問題，讓我很下臺呀。) 還有：Don't be so mean. If I can't finish the job, you don't look good either. (不要幸災樂禍，我完不了工你也不好看。)



跟 don't look good 意思相近的，除了 look bad 還有 look stupid，look like a fool 以及 look like an idiot。用後面這幾個短語所表達的 "丟面子，沒臉" 的意思時，情緒更加強烈。比如說：I looked like a fool last nigh!  (昨晚我就像個傻子！) 或者：You shouldn't have stood me up yesterday. I looked stupid on the stage by myslef. (你昨天真不該放我鴿子，讓我自己像個傻子似的站在講臺上。)

Sometimes it is all about apprearance. Making other people look bad doesn't make you look good.  (有的時候全是面子上的事兒，讓別人丟臉自己也不好看不是?)

Look good, feel good, do good.
