原版英語英譯英微閱讀:Have two left feet
我們學習英語Have two left feet,是通過學習某句英語「獲得」一句中文「跳舞笨手笨腳」,還是為了獲得「更多英語」?
這決定了我們學習英語的質量。
你「讀」下面英語,「獲得」的是中文,還是英語?
1.I've always had two left feet, so I was really nervous about our first dance after the wedding.
2. I'm sorry, I can't dance better. I have two left feet.
See also: feet, have, left, two
3. She told reporters that her husband has two left feet.
我們「獲得」的是下面一個意思但不止一種說法的英語(學過,或沒學過),以及英語口語:
1.Okay.I got you.If someone has two left feet, they are not good at dancing.
They are not good at dancing就是我們從學習英語have two left feet獲得的英語。
2. If you have two left feet at dancing,you're unable to dance gracefully.You're very awkward with your feet,usually at dancing.
3.Have two left feet means you're clumsy(while dancing).
這就是我們願意付出多年努力學習英語的目的:為了得到更多英語,而不是中文:讓英語have two left feet與英語clumsy,awakward發生關聯和記憶。
