如何用英语优雅地表达自己的愤怒?, w7 l$ ?4 J+ A# C8 Z. u0 M1 E

( E. S# X' e, S很多人一生气,所有的英文都忘光了,平常英文就说不出口,更何况是吵架,所以满脑子浮现的都是脏话,这是很不好的。有人很绝,英文骂不过人家就用中文,反正对方听不听得懂都无所谓,重要的是让他知道你很凶,你正在骂他就行了。现在让我们来看看一些比较文雅的方式：
2 J6 A) Z5 _) o1 q* M, \9 E) K/ K$ ?* [( [) w
　　Hey!wise up!放聪明点好吗？ , a4 L3 n7 z. D6 I, h

; e4 V- z5 C8 _　　当别人做了蠢事时,你可以说,“Don't be stupid！”或“Don't be silly.”但这是非常不礼貌的说法。客气一点的说法就是：Wise up!你也可以用尖酸刻薄的语气说：Wise up, please.然后故意把please的尾音繽得长长的。也有人会说, Hey! grow up.意思就是你长大一点好不好?例如有人20岁了还不会自己补衣服,你就可以说Hey! grow up.这根wise up是不是也差不多呢? # t4 h- ]& p5 h; b6 [

/ K5 m. V* y1 w  Z8 _' r　　Put up or shut up.要么你就去做，不然就给我闭嘴。 8 A, T4 T& `* z( I) h0 @

/ P7 B, @: T) d  ^9 s% U8 J　　要注意的是，Put up字典上查不到“自己去做”的意思,但见怪不怪,很多口语都是字典上查不到的。这句话也让人想到一句成语：walk the walk, talk the talk,即说到做到,有点像是中文里的言行一致,或是只说：walk the talk也可以。
6 k' O' l2 k2 i7 S3 t
/ x5 V) o0 P7 G　　You eat with that mouth?你是用这张嘴吃饭的吗？
- |. p  I; W, k6 Z) n
/ |1 W' z3 y* d1 ^% I0 a# x　　别人对你说脏话,你就回敬他这句,言下之意是你的嘴那么脏,你还用它吃饭？还有一种说法：“You kiss your mother with that mouth?”你用这张脏嘴亲你妈妈吗？所以下次记得如果有老外对你说脏话,不要再骂回去,保持风度,说一句,“You eat with that mouth?”就扯平了。 8 m" F. r9 g8 q) c: @3 t& C

" f+ d7 x2 l5 Q　　You are dead meat.你死定了。
( u( w! R9 L  E6 b) ^5 @, z
7 J0 W! X& g2 y& X8 }5 n, \　　也可以说：“You are dead.”你完蛋了。
9 {, _# ?! H1 {8 X* n. H6 g% _; i. q# n) d3 m( w* {/ {' `* H8 M
　　Don't you dare!How dare you!你好大的胆子啊�_
& ?3 ~  L6 x6 C* p, L( Z7 U
% q) Y% S$ m9 t4 T5 q2 h7 n　　这句话可以在两种场合说,第一种是很严肃的场合,如小孩子很调皮,不听话，父母就会说,“Don't you dare!”意思是你给我当心点,不然等会就要挨打了。另一种场合是开玩笑,如有人说他要跟某网友约会,你说“Don't you dare?”就有点开玩笑的语气，你不怕被恐龙给吃了吗?
. @* J& v( d% f
3 T6 b: b' _% u9 n# Q, N! H8 @8 ?　　Don't push me around.不要摆布我。 # ?& |# B" d) a$ w3 ^+ b  z
/ ~; b# w, c# S% _6 ?3 U: R  V
　　通常当我讲这句话时，我还会想到一个字“bossy”，像是老板一样,喜欢指挥别人。如：“You are so bossy. I don't like that.”这句话也可以单讲,“Don't push me.”或“Don't push me any further.”还有一句跟push有关的成语：push the button,指使,操纵。如：“I know why you are doing this, someone is pushing your button!”
* ~3 V( ~) a1 A1 L. o6 P
1 [) G* D3 Z/ i5 E　　You want to step outside?
/ l. Y- ^6 l: _( k% v2 c" Q- b) u. b0 K/ L
　　You want to take this outside?想到外面解决吗？
$ c1 X# I( N9 c& l  N, g, l
. P" J5 Z) ~2 f: C( L+ X- O　　老外跟我们一样,二个人一言不合吵起来了,可能就有人要说这句了，指的就是要不要出去打架啦。我还听过类似的用法,如：“Do you want to pick a fight?”你要挑起争端吗?或“This means war.”这就意味着跟我宣战。
( A& {+ f" j" U: Y
; }7 D- ]# P" o2 N% z4 u! L# f　　You and what army?You and who else?你和哪一路人马啊？ 3 H( r$ _5 a* T( O0 N! z6 Q
0 i$ D* ]0 \# z' V) {9 Q5 m
　　要是有人跟你说“Do you want to step outside?”就回他这一句。意思是说：“喔�_�_那你找了多少人来打架啊?”有时候电视里出现这句对白时,还会打出一排军队的电脑动籣,非常有意思。还有一句话也很好玩：“Who's side are you on?”这是在快要打架时,你问人家：你到底是哪一边的?2 a: J1 ~( H! e0 A* |/ z% I  r* D

on the house字面上是“在房子上面”的意思，但这里是一个片语，意思是“免钱，店长请客”。比如说在酒吧喝酒，有时候酒保会请你喝一杯，他就会说“This one is on the house" （这杯我请客）。不过笨笨的blonde girl连简单片语都听不懂，就傻傻爬到屋顶上找酒喝了。（是不是我们也会理解成在房顶上有酒啊？恐怖，别打我哦，我不是故意的）0 Z7 e) B1 C# s: }

中国人大多喜欢温文尔雅的儒生形象。这也是中美文化差异之一喽！在美国，经常会听到美国女生说“He's so cute!(他好帅哦！)"这里用的是cute, 而不是handsome.不过两者的意思是一样的，都是好看的意思。只是美国人习惯用cute这个词。当然了，可不是指男生很可爱哦。除了说男生的脸张得cute之外呢，她们还会注意男生的小屁屁。她们会说"He has such a cute butt! (他的小屁屁长得真好看！）" 当然美国男生也会注意女生的小屁屁啦。我就亲耳听到很多男生讲过某个女生的小屁屁很翘，很性感哦。美国女生喜欢那种爱运动，体格很健壮，有肌肉的男生。所以校队的运动员，特别是football(美式橄榄球)球队的男生，通常都是very popular的。

They care about the build of their bodies（他们很重视体魄）。他们欣赏masculine, macho(有男人味、有肌肉的男生）。很多人从小就养成去健身房运动的习惯（work out at the gym)。他们不喜欢pale (苍白) and flabby (肌肉松弛)的男生。我没生病前也经常去gym哦。：）
