「東西太貴了」用英語怎麼說?
That's too expensive什麼意思?
我們學習英語不光是為了「一句中文一句對應英語」,或者「一句英語一句對應中文」,即「英譯漢式」,或「漢譯英式」方法來學的:
太貴了:
1. Highway Robbery:太貴了,簡直就是搶錢,攔路搶劫啊,Charging that much to see a movie/What you're asking for this dress is highway robbery! 看場電影就收那麼多錢/衣服開價簡直是攔路搶錢啊!
2. cost sb. an arm and a leg 花了某人很多錢;
3. break the bank 用盡所有的錢,Buying a new dress won't break the bank.
4. It's too pricey. 太貴了。
5. It's beyond my budget. 超出了我的預算。
6. It's out of my price range. 超過了我能負擔的範疇。
7. I cannot afford it. 我負擔不起。
我們最終不是為了記憶「中文的英語時是什麼?」,或者「英語的中文是什麼?」而學習。我們最終是為了記憶「英語的英語是什麼?」而學習英語,也就是讓學過的英語之間融會貫通,用英語訓練互為解釋互為理解的能力。

我們說重複就是力量,只不過我們重複的不是中文,而是英語。
也就是說,我們需要做的是這樣的英語(口語)訓練,而不是用中文記住英語就完事了。
