吃货学英语【idiom+expression+word】2011-11-07 22:43:01这学期外教课的一大重头就是学idiom、slang，于是就学到几个有关food的。于是由于个人兴趣（你们懂的），就自己又收集了一些，如果有错误请指正，因为大部分是自己根据英文解释理解过来的，可能有时候理解错或者没看清就给翻错了。然后，有补充请留言哈。来源有课堂、美国之音VOA、豆瓣。竟然整理了两天才写完。中学时候就学过as cool as a cucumber，as easy as pie，not my cup of tea，a piece of cake了吧，这种简单又熟悉的就不解释了。no sweat，基本相当于easybite off more than one can chew 做超出自己能力的事couch potato，这个挺常用的，但是中国人可能 不一定熟悉，大致就是形容很爱看电视。很懒又少运动的人。于是一般就会长成potato那样，请自行脑补。an egghead very intelligent personstuff myself 吃很多东西in a pickle you are in trouble or a difficult situation.（pickle大概就是泡菜那类的东东。）two peas in a pod two people are very similarfull of beanssomeone is very energeticdoes not amount to a hill of beans 形容不重要的事you dont know beans about something 对什么什么事不了解不知道spill the beansyou tell something that was supposed to be a secret.But something is considered small potatoes if it is not important.hold a hot potato in your bare hands means a problem or issue that no one wants to deal with you cannot squeeze blood out of a turnip 大概就是说不要从别人那里要（抢）他不想给的东西separating the wheat from the chaff 就是取其精华，取其糟粕的英文版啦 keeping what is valuable and rejecting what is worthless.the cream of the crop who are chosen are the best onesforbidden fruit tastes the sweetest. 邪恶点翻译的话就是偷尝禁果最刺激？go bananas be wild with excitement or worry.If life gives you lemons, make lemonade. 在最坏的情况下做能做的最好的事 you should always try to make the best of a bad situationthere is no use crying over spilled milk. 这个应该挺好理解吧，不解释。walk on eggshells around someone。 在鸡蛋上走路，就是小心翼翼，就是不需要对某人太行为太拘束，因为他很好相处，不会轻易生气you have to break some eggs to make an omelet. 字面理解一下，就是为了达成某个结果应该做一些必要的努力。you are what you eat. 这句话是不是就是表达了要好好吃饭的意思啊。？ Meat and potatoes most important part of something.one mans meat is another mans poison. 有的人很喜欢某样东西，虽然那样东西是别人很不喜欢的the salt of the earth形容一个人很精英，圣经里来的典故啊据说。曾经盐也是很贵的东西呢pour salt on a wound 在伤口上撒盐take it with a grain of salt 不相信某人的话，有怀疑brings home the bacon 就是形容家庭的顶梁柱啊cut the mustard mustard是芥末，日本人顶喜欢的那种食物。切芥末，就是取得成功，做到最好，奇葩吧a tall drink of water.a man who is very tallpacked like sardines just like small fish in a can.像沙丁鱼一样挤在公车或地铁或什么地方， plus 原来英语也有和中文一样的表达方式啊out to lunch大概是不在状况内的意思吧 （我意思意思地翻译。不一定准there is no such thing as a free lunch 天下没有免费的午餐wake up and smell the coffee 比如说有时候工作上找不到失误在那，用这句就表明要更集中注意力来解决问题I once made a big mistake at the office and felt foolish. I had egg on my face.food for thoughtsomething to think about.the best thing since sliced bread. something is new and improvedbreadwinnerThe person who makes the most money in a familyBread and butter issues are those that are most important to Americans and affect them directly like jobs and health care.Half a loaf is better than none means that getting part of what you want is better than getting nothing at all.If you know which side your bread is buttered on, then you know what your best interests are and will act to protect them.youre toast.有麻烦了Icing on the cakesomething good that happens in addition to another good thing.you cant have your cake and eat it, too.鱼和熊掌不可兼得啊。英语是这样表达的，记住呀selling like hotcakes.形容卖的很火的商品drop him like a hotcake. hotcake是很畅销的东西，但是把朋友drop like a hotcake说明他不是个值得当朋友的人，或者他做了什么不好的事，那就和他断交吧Flat as a pancake 就是很平很平。平的和扁扁的pancake有是一拼（哎，说到这里想念我姐做的pancake了）A tough cookie 形容强悍坚强的人a sharp cookie 聪明的人.thats the way the cookie crumbles. 这句话属于生活不顺但是只能接受的时候自我安慰的话eat humble pie. 忍气吞声，赔礼道歉If you have an idea or plan that is not really possible, someone might say it is pie in the sky.
