Welcome to English in a Minute, where we teach you all about idioms in American English.
欢迎收听《一分钟英语》,在这里我们将教您一些美式英语中的俚语。
Let's say you have worked all day, and you are really tried, like these people:
想象一下自己和这些人一样,工作了一整天,非常的疲惫:I am exhausted. I have been working at this since 7:00 a.m. this morning.
累死我了。从早上7点钟一直上班到现在。
Me, too. I think it's time we call it a day.
我也是,我觉得是时候收工了。(call it a day)I agree. Let's go home. Call it a day!
同意。回家吧,收工!(Call it a day)When you "call it a day" in American English, it means you are ending work, play, or something you are doing that day.
在你在美语中说“call it a day”,意思是你放下了手头上工作、玩乐,或者任何那天你在做的事情。Often, it means you have finished your work, and you are going home.
它经常表示你完成工作,准备回家这个意思。You can use this phrase in any situation, and everybody in America will understand you.
在任何场景你都可以使用这个短语。在美国,大家都能明白你的意思。And that's English in a Minute.
以上就是本期的《一分钟英语》。So I'm calling it a day and going home.
所以我也要收工,准备回家啦!
