影視英語口語:蹬鼻子上臉
【劇情簡介】和所有處於青少年叛逆期的孩子一樣，人魚公主和老爹吵翻了~大發脾氣的老爹衝女兒吼了一頓，不買賬的女兒懶得理他，而且老螃蟹還說風涼話……
【電影片段臺詞】
- I'm 16 years old. I'm not a child anymore.
- Don't you take that tone of voice with me, young lady. As long as you live under my ocean, you'll obey my rules.
- But if you would just listen-- -
- Not another word!
- Hmph! Teenagers. They think they know everything. You give them an inch, they swim all over you.【重點詞彙講解】
1. Don't you take that tone of voice with me 別用那種口氣跟我講話！
tone，語音語調；don‘t you do sth.這個句式是專用來表達強調語氣的
2. not another word 少廢話
同樣一句蠻有用的口語，叫別人住嘴的時候除了說shut up，還可以用這句話來表達不耐煩的心情哦~
3. You give them an inch, they swim all over you. 稍稍縱容他們一下，還就蹬鼻子上臉了
give sb. an inch, he/she will take a mile是固定俗語，和中文裏的“得寸進尺、蹬鼻子上臉”一個意思；這裏後半句的swim all over you是從詞組walk all over you來得，walk all over you意爲“欺負某人，騎到某人頭上”；因爲魚魚沒有腿啊，沒辦法walk，所以這裏就成了swim all over you（魚兒的語言還真豐富~）
