漢語(yǔ)習(xí)語(yǔ)的英文說(shuō)法
1.【不妙】something is to payThe manager had a hunch that something was to pay.
經(jīng)理感到事情有些不妙。
漢語(yǔ)的“有些不妙”或“有點(diǎn)不對(duì)頭”的概念�？捎胹omething is to pay的句式來(lái)表示。這一短語(yǔ)常和feel或have a hunch that連用。
Dialogue
Bob: Didn't you see the writing on the wall?
Sue: I even didn't have the slightest hunch.
Bob: But you should be prepared for such an outcome.
Sue: I had too much confidence in him.
Bob: But he ruined your business.

2.【眼中釘】a thorn in someone's flesh
I wonder why I become a thorn in their flesh. I've never harmed them.
不知為什么我成了他們的眼中釘了。我可從未錯(cuò)待過(guò)他們。
我們說(shuō)的“眼中釘”與英美人講的a thorn in someone's flesh指的是一回事，
雖比喻有異，但意思相同。與此說(shuō)法相似的還有“刺耳的話”（a flea in someone's ear）。
Dialogue
Frank: I don't know why I should become a thorn in the John's flesh.
Betty: You mean your boss?
Frank: Yeah. He seems to bear me a grudge.
Betty: That's because you are too much on the ball.
Frank: But why should that make him hate me?
Betty: That's because you put him in the shade.
3.【饞得流口水】make someone's mouth water
The delicacies on the table make him mouth water.
桌上的美味佳肴饞得他直流口水。
“使某人流口水”指“使某人垂涎”，是地道的漢語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)。這一概念一般是用make someone's mouth water的句式來(lái)表達(dá)的。
Dialogue
Sue: Wow! What a gracious table! Everything looks so beautiful.
Bob: This might be the best dinner you've ever had.
Sue: Surely it is. I can hardly wait. They make my mouth water.
Bob: I feel itching, too. Let's start and try these delicacies.
