Hey guys! This is Chris. 歡迎收聽我們每日口語系列,每天跟著我學最地道的口語表達。雖然那段惡夢一樣的時間已經過去了,但想想滿天飛柳絮、楊絮的日子還是很恐怖!相信很多花粉過敏者都有同感!那我們應該怎麼表達出自己的不滿呢?


快來看看!

How long does the pollen‿usually last? My‿allergies‿are killing me! And the medicine‿isn't working‿at‿all.


用來標連讀: ‿

紅色山出現標吞音:d

綠色刪除線表弱讀:e

粗體用來標句重音:bold



Last - 持續

後面可以加模糊或具體的持續時間。


The pollen might last two months.

花粉可能會持續兩個月。

The pollution has lasted a week.

汙染已經持續一周了。


Allergies - 過敏    形容詞allergic

也常常用"be allergic to..."表示「對...過敏」。

I'm allergic to peanuts.

我對花生過敏。(在西方特別是美國比較常見)


(Something) is killing me! - (某事物)要了我的命了!

People often exaggerate and say that something is "killing" them when they are uncomfortable. For example:

人們感覺不舒服的時候常常會誇張一點說某事物在「殺死」他們。比如:


This heat is killing me!

我快熱死了!

My boss is killing me!

我老闆真要了親命了!

OMG, these shoes are killing me!

天哪,這雙鞋難受死我了!
