1. I very like it
I like it very much.
2. 这个价格对我挺合适的。
The price is very suitable for me. 5 K1 W. u, m: H8 O
The price is right. 4 q( S0 U( Y/ a( s& U) O. _8 R
Note: suitable( 合适的、相配的 ) 最常见的用法是以否定的形式出现在告示或通知上,如:下列节目儿童不宜。 The following programme is not suitable for children 在这组句子中用后面的说法会更合适。
3. 你是做什么工作的呢?
What ’ s your job? ! t$ T* R7 c( q5 ^! d6 w; x
Are you working at the moment? 1 Q, v! s8 ]* \0 [2 H" y, B
Note: what ’ s your job 这种说法难道也有毛病吗?是的。因为如果您的谈话对象刚刚失业,如此直接的问法会让对方有失面子,所以您要问:目前您是在上班吗? Are you working at the moment? 接下来您才问:目前您在哪儿工作呢? Where are you working these days? 或者您从事哪个行业呢? What line of work are you in? 顺带说一下,回答这类问题时不妨说得具体一点,不要只是说经理或者秘书。
4. 用英语怎么说?
How to say? 1 ?# z8 G9 J+ \6 I1 m
How do you say this in English? " V- T0 } J/ V: C) t$ i+ V
Note: How to say 是在中国最为泛滥成灾的中国式英语之一,这决不是地道的英语说法。同样的句子有:请问这个词如何拼写? How do you spell that please? 请问这个单词 怎么读? How do you pronounce this word? ' @, E: f% E# r
5. 明天我有事情要做。 " @" J w$ m5 U
5 z& a' j0 R! E; u6 zamp; Y8 V
I have something to do tomorrow . % Y' Gamp; Lnbsp;nbsp;N7 b! v/ G0 }$ k) E
Sorry but I am tied up all day tomorrow.
用 I have something to do 来表示您很忙,这也完全是中国式的说法。因为每时每刻我们都有事情要做, 躺在那里睡大觉也是事情。所以您可以说我很忙,脱不开身: I ’ m tied up.
6. 我没有英文名。 6 ~2 p" H8 ]9 ~$ J
I haven ’ t English name.
I don ’ t have an English name.
Note:许多人讲英语犯这样的错误,从语法角度来分析,可能是语法功底欠缺,因为 have 在这里是实义动词,而并不是在现在完成时里面那个没有意义的助动词。所以,这句话由肯定句变成否定句要加助动词。 + @4 V' V9 Z3 samp; P( [4 L0 v
明白道理是一回事,习惯是另一回事,请您再说几话:我没有钱; I don ’ t have any money. 我没有 兄弟姐妹; I don ’ t have any brothers or sisters. 我没有车。 I don ’ t have a car. ( m: Z2 r; @: d- L4 S; ^
7. 我想我不行。 " v a* i1 J; x
I think I can ’ t. ( ~" m1 b% \' n3 G2 f- l
I don ’ t think I can.
Note:这一组然是个习惯问题,在语法上称为否定前置,这就是汉语里面说“我想我不会”的时候,英语里面总是说“我不认为我会”。以后您在说类似的英语句子的时候,只要您留心,也会习惯英语的说法的。 & F& ~' b+ W( ^- x4 j! ~: l
8. 我的舞也跳得不好。
I don ’ t dance well too.
I am not a very good dancer either.
Note:当我们说不擅长做什么事情的时候,英语里面通常用 not good at something ,英语的思维甚至直接踊跃到:我不是一个好的舞者。 " d# i7 i/ z: F A* Y) _
9. 现在几点钟了?
What time is it now?
What time is it, please? . b. G2 h" v. T
Note: What time is it now 这是一个直接从汉语翻译过的句子,讲英语的时候没有必要说 now, 因为您不可能问 what time was it yesterday, 或者 what time is it tomorrow? 所以符合英语习惯的说法是:请问现在几点了? What time is it, please? ) Q( U$ `' t/ b/ J
10. 我的英语很糟糕。 * _* f3 g0 F, b _0 ] O/ q
My English is poor. . o. y: b% N4 P, Z* r- D
I am not 100% fluent, but at least I am improving. 1 t- @( ]( N" D/ ^- G1 L
Note:有人开玩笑说,全中国人最擅长的一句英文是: My English is poor. 实话说,我从来没有遇到一个美国 人对我说: My Chinese is poor. 无论他们的汉语是好是坏,他们会说 : I am still having a few problem, but I'm getting better.
当您告诉外国人,您的英语很 poor , so what( 那又怎么样呢 ) ,是要让别人当场施舍给我们一些英语呢,还是说我的英语不好,咱们不谈了吧。 0 y7 _8 r" a1 H. E' p7 S/ R( b( g
另外一个更大的弊端是,一边不停的学英语,一边不停地说自己的英语很 poor, 这正像有个人一边给车胎充气,又一边在车胎上扎孔放气。您可以实事求事地说,我的英语还不算十分流利,但至少我在进步。 1 l/ }$ t5 U8 W' e- ?4 I
11. 你愿意参加我们的晚会吗?
Would you like to join our party on Friday? 3 B3 N$ L2 I. b, J2 a% A- e
Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?
Note: join 往往是指参加俱乐部或者协会,如: join a health club; join 6 L- v4 H" N$ e- W, r9 X
the Communist Party. 事实上,常常与 party 搭配的动词的 come 或者 go 。如 go a wild party ,或者 come to a Christmas Party 。 " E. Q9 m# _, {$ a; y3 ]8 j8 i5 g
12. 我没有经验 。
I have no experience.
I don ’ t know much about that.
Note: I have no experience 这句话听起来古里古怪,因为您只需要说:那方面 1 a) D, X1 |0 H# s6 X5 a! Z# h( X
我懂得不多,或者这方面我不在行,就行了。 I am not really an expert in this area.
13. 我没有男朋友 。
I have no boyfriend. + T3 _" I0 ?* w8 @. V6 `
I don ’ t have a boyfriend. " N$ k) Q1 J! p+ k9 B3 f1 {

18. 这个春节你回家吗?
Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival? 8 p* B7 S8 R( A: O. Q0 z
是的,我回去。 Of course! (这一句是错的) 当然。 Sure. / Certainly. (这种说法是正确的)以英语为母语的人使用 of course 的频率要比中国的学生低得多,只有在回答一些众所周知的问题时才说 of course 。因为 of course 后面隐含的一句话是“当然我知道啦!难道我是一个傻瓜吗?”因此, of course 带有挑衅的意味。在交谈时,用 sure 或 certainly 效果会好得多。同时, of course not 也具挑衅的意味。正常情况下语气温和的说法是 certainly not. : J7 k0 g( I5 Y9 T* r
19. 我觉得右手很疼。 6 L2 ]9 F( j5 a' s
I feel very painful in my right hand. ( |; y' z1 f. samp; e, X) N
