《小謝爾頓》S2E8:“跟著感覺走”英語怎麼說?大綱
新的一集,小喬治解鎖新的專業技能。
1. an acquired taste
acquire的意思是取得,獲得;購得;學到,an acquired taste表示後天養成的嗜好;假以時日並多次嘗試而喜歡上的東西。形容某人的話,可能表示某人不是第一眼就會喜歡的型別吧。
Olives are an acquired taste.
橄欖這種東西吃得多就愛吃了。
2. melt away
melt away有這兩個意思:①逐漸消失;逐漸散去
As the police sirens were heard, the crowd started to melt away.
警笛一響,人群就開始散開了。
②(強烈的情緒)變弱,消失
Her anger melted away when she read the letter.
讀到信時,她的怒火慢慢消失了。
謝爾頓的爸爸聽說對方在減肥,誇張的來了一句“you are melting away“,當然不是說人漸漸消失了,只是幽默地說對方會變瘦啦!
3. sixth sense
sixth sense就是第六感,直覺。
A sixth sense told me that the train was going to crash.

直覺的不同表達:
