【适用场合】
今天节目中,我们讲解一下surprise, surprise的英文说法;
这个短语是一个口语化的表达,有时会带有一些讽刺的语气,比如说看这条英文解释:
It is said when someone has done something or when something has happened in a way which you expected and which you do not approve of;
当某个人做了某件事情,或者是某件事情发生了,结果正如你预料的那样,而你并不认可这件事,就可以这么说。类似于:“呵呵,果不其然!不出所料!”这样的意思;
eg: Surprise surprise, he forgot our meeting again.
果不其然,他又忘了我们的会议。(你早就猜到他会忘)
eg: Surprise surprise, she's late again.
呵,果然,她又迟到了。
eg: "I've forgotten my keys again." "Surprise, surprise!"
——“我又忘带钥匙了。”
——“呵,果然不出我所料。”
eg: A: "I somehow managed to break yet another phone!"
B: "Surprise, surprise! How many does that make it this year?"
A:“我居然又把手机摔坏了。”
B:“不出意料啊,你这是今年第几台了?”
eg: A: “There's nothing worth watching on TV tonight.”
B: “Surprise, surprise.” (= there is usually nothing worth watching).
A:“今晚电视没啥好看的。”
B:“一点不意外。一直如此。”
有的时候也有另外一种场合可以用。表示“用于向别人描述发生了意想不到、令人开心的事情”;
It is said when you are telling someone about a situation in which something unexpected and pleasant has happened;
eg: I asked him if he wanted to come to dinner with my parents, and surprise, surprise, he said yes!
我问他要不要来和我父母一起吃饭,你猜怎么着?他居然答应了!
