每日一句英譯英:He called me names
英語不是不能用中文學。但是,不能只用中文學。
1) Call your name,call my name,call her name.
1.He called my name when we met on the street.
2.Okay.I got you.You name is Jack.So he called you Jack.So,that's what he called your name means.
2) Call me names,call you names,call us names,call them names
1.My son told me some boys called him names at school.
2.Okay. I got you.If he called you Son of a bitch=he said Son of a bitch to you,or or something like you negro,you Chinaman,he called you names.That's what call someone names means.
這就叫:英語思維學習法,見英語能說英語,而不是只會「說」中文。
3) Call me by my first name,or by my last name
1.Hi! Sera,nice to meet you here.
2. Okay.I got you.Your full name is Sera Jones.When he called you Sera,he called you by your first name.It's friendly to call you by your first name.
When he called Jones,he called you by your last name.It's not polite to call your last name in China.
4) Call you by the wrong name
1.Well,isnt that you, John? Nice to see you again.
2.Sorry,my name is Maria,not Betty.You called me by the wrong name.
3.I felt silly when he called me by her ex girl friend's name several times:Why do you always call me by the wrong name,by her name?
4.Okay.I got you.Your name is Jack.But he called you John.So he called you by the wrong name.
我不知道,我堅持只用英語刷屏,能不能慢慢培養起你用英語學英語的「英語思維」記憶和習慣?
