<绝望的主妇>第二季第十九集中,susan 的感情进展地很不顺利。一天她独自去电影院。不巧的是,她在电影院里撞见了mike,还是和别的女孩一起来的。这真是无巧不成书。她为了避免尴尬赶快向旁边一位男士求救。还好他很配合,也很幽默。他说:Wow, i can’t believe I’m finally seeing the man himself, in the flesh.
http://ykyi.net 在这句说话里面,in the flesh means present and alive before one’s eyes or in person(活生生地在某人眼前或本人地),也可以简单理解为”活生生地,本人地”
例如: She is even more beautiful in the flesh. 她本人更漂亮
一定要学会这句话喔。这可是在看照片时常用的啊。哈哈。
flesh可以指“肉,肉体”
Hi, what makes u lose so much flesh. 嗨,是什么使你变得如此消瘦。
The spirit is willing but the flesh is weak. 心有余而力不足。
**flesh and blood 可以用来泛指人体,人性(The human body or nature).
**
The work is more than flesh and blood can stand. 这项工作非人能忍受。
于是flesh and blood还可以引申为一篇文章一部小说或是一个概念等的血与肉。
The paragraph lacks flesh and blood. please flesh out with more details.
是啊,一篇好的文章既要有好的结构bone,又要有丰富的内容flesh and blood.这样才好看。再看一句话:
No matter what happened, Tom is my own flesh and blood.不管发生了什么事,汤姆都是我亲生骨肉。
pound of flesh又是什么意思呢?
Pound of flesh出生<威尼斯商人>。William shakespeare的戏剧啊!现在的引申义是: pound of flesh means to cruelly or unreasonably insist on one’s right.
例如: Their boss pays the highest wages, but he wants his pound of flesh in return and makes them work very hard.
go the way of all flesh 是死的意思 http://ykyi.net
Our dog’s gone the way of all flesh. 我们的狗死了。
A thorn in someone’s flesh 很容易猜到是肉中刺的意思和中文是一样的。
I wonder why i become a thorn in their flesh. I’ve never harmed them.
Press the flesh 什么意思呢
猜不到吧!Press the flesh竟然是握手的意思。压肉就是握手。哈哈。
例句:The candidate went through the crowed, pressing the flesh. 候选人穿过人群,与他们一一握手。
