24Nov愛的小測驗
以下四個選項里,你會選擇哪個?
Couples in love, especially those who have just got together, can do some very strange things. Which of these activities would a newly made couple definitely not do?
a) make eyes at each other
b) steal a kiss from each other
c) whisper sweet nothings in each other"s ear
d) get under their lover"s skin
參考答案:答案是d。
解析:get under one"s skin的意思是「讓人生氣」,這與句子的上下文意思不符。Make eyes的意思是「送秋波」或「飛眼」的意思,也有人譯成「拋媚眼」;steal a kiss的意思是「偷吻」;whisper sweet nothings in each other"s ear則是「低聲細語地說著情話」。
請將譯文發到留言區,一起來交流!
