【发音技巧】want to失去爆破;show off连读;


【翻译】你是真心想见他们,还是单纯想要去炫耀?


【适用场合】


今天我们来学习一下show off的用法,相当于中文中的“炫耀、显摆”;


这个短语带有比较明显的贬义色彩。


来看看对应的解释,to behave in a way which is intended to attract attention or admiration, and which other people often find annoying;


或者看这条解释:If you say that someone is showing off, you are criticizing them for trying to impress people by showing in a very obvious way what they can do or what they own.


 


eg: She only bought that sports car to show off and prove she could afford one.


她买那辆跑车纯粹就是为了显摆,证明自己买得起。


 


eg: He's always showing off to his classmates.


他总喜欢在同学们面前显摆。


 


eg: All right, there's no need to show off.


好了,没必要炫耀了。


 


eg: Naomi was showing off her engagement ring.


娜奥米在炫耀自己的订婚戒指。


 


eg: Our son always likes to show off when we have guests over.


家里来客人的时候,我们儿子总是喜欢表现、显摆自己。
