Hello ladies and gentlemen, welcome to my program, this is Ukki. First of all, I would like to ask you a question. What's your favorite color? When I was a little girl, I like pink very much. So how about you?
Today's program,I would like to talk about "pink" this word with all of you guys.
本期的“E聊吧”,我們一起來聊聊跟pink這個詞有關(guān)的一些習慣用語。粉色屬暖色調(diào),由pink構(gòu)成的習慣用語,表達的是喜氣洋洋的良好感覺,
1. feel in the pink
這個短語的出典可能是健康人的臉頰往往是紅撲撲的,而臉色蒼白卻是虛弱無力的跡象,所以人們用in the pink來表示in good health 健康有力。
例句:Today I sure feel in the pink! I had a good night's sleep, a walk in the fresh air this morning, a good breakfast, and I feel like I can get a whole lot accomplished today!
今天我感覺精力充沛!我昨晚睡了個好覺,一早又在清晨的新鮮空氣里散了步,好好吃了頓早餐,所以我覺得自己今天能完成好多工作。
2. tickled pink
Tickled 除了大家都知道的"被弄得發(fā)癢或者咯咯笑"的意思外,也有"給逗得高興"的意思。Tickled pink的意思就是:Very pleased; delighted 感到萬分高興。
例句:I'm tickled pink to hear that Bob's asked Susan to marry him. They're both my good friends and I've always thought they were made for each other. I know they'll be very happy together.
聽到Bob向Susan求婚的消息我感到萬分高興。他倆都是我的好朋友,而且我一向覺得他們是天生的一對。我知道他們在一起會非常美滿。
