轻松日记商务职场篇 第115期:不想留下坏印象

核心句型：
I don't want to leave a bitter taste in his mouth.
我不想给他留下不愉快的印象。
leave a bitter taste in his mouth直译过来就是：“在他嘴里留下苦味”，这个短语的正确意思是：“给他留下不愉快的印象”。因此，当美国人说"I don't want to leave a bitter taste in his mouth."时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"I don't want to leave him a bad impression."、"I wouldn't like to leave him an unhappy memory."。
情景对白：
Shirley: You look pale today. Why don't you ask for a leave?
雪莉：你脸色很苍白啊，为什么不请假休息呢？
Jane: Well, I have to accompany one of our foremost clients to our factory. I don't want to leave a bitter taste in his mouth.
简：哎，我得陪一个重要客户去工厂。我不想给他留下不愉快的印象。
搭配句积累：

As I said, babies love the taste of sweet and hate the taste of bitter.
