     在大多数情况下,对于女性“怀孕”不直接说“pregnant”这个字,而应该绕着弯子说。


  比如:
  She is"expecting".
  (她在“待产”中。)She is "in a delicatecondition".
  (她正“怀孕中”。)She is"well-along".
  (她“心满意足”。)She is about to have a"blessed event 1".
  (她不久会有“喜事”。)She is about to be"in a family way".
  (她不久就要走向“家庭之路”。)我们也会说“她有喜了”。可见在形容微妙(delicate)的事情时, 不问中外都会采用拐弯抹角的说法。另外,虽然同是“怀孕”, 但未婚的女性在不希望的情形下怀孕时,就说:
  She is "introuble".
  (她“有了麻烦”。)

n.事变,大事件
  • I'm surprised that you didn't know of such an important event.这么大的事你竟会不知道?
  • He is the center of this event.他是这次事件的核心人物。
