英文俗語大展播,怎能少了顏色的份兒?
快來見識一下這兩個與顏色有關的俗語吧!
Qiqi, I heard that your mother was ill in hospital last week.
How is she now?
I mean she's in good health(健康) now.
In the pink?
Yes. But she came back from the hospital yesterday.
Oh, she's in the pink.
哈哈,樂天真是太有想象力了!其實啊,“in the pink”的意思是身體健康。這個俗語是怎么來的?有人認為凡是身體健康的人,他們的皮膚都會呈現一種粉色的光澤,就像我們說的臉色很好、白里透紅一樣,所以“in the pink”就自然跟身體健康聯系上了。
