 Have a bad hair day: 坏心情


要是有人对您说“I have a bad hair day”,您可千万别以为她在抱怨自己的发型。A bad hair day是个俚语,指的是“很不顺利的一天”。 若仔细推敲一下,a bad hair day远非“不顺利”三个字就能囊括的。想一想,当您顶着一个糟糕无比的发型时,您的心情一定沮丧透顶,所以,a bad hair day常暗指“因不顺利而情绪低靡。” 据记载,a bad hair day诞生于20世纪末的娱乐圈。1993年,语言学家威廉·萨菲尔在纽约时报专栏里讨论这个短语时,将它追溯到1991年喜剧演员加里·山德林的一句评论(他有一句经典搞笑台词Is my hair all right?)。1995年,美国电视新闻节目主持人简·波利也曾在一些场合宣称,短语a bad hair day源于她的戏谑台词。 如果要寻例句,可以听一听这首节奏强劲、言语俏皮的乡村摇滚:Any man of mine,其中有一句歌词是这么说的——And anything 1 I do or say better 2 be okay,When I have a bad hair day(我心情糟的时候,无论说什么做什么都是正确的。)

pron.任何东西(事物);无论什么东西(事物)
  • He'll do anything within reason but he won't break the law.在合理范围内他会做一切事情,但他不会违法。
  • He is a strange little mouse,never said anything.他竟然胆小如鼠,一句话都没说。
adj.更好的(good和well的比较级);更熟练的;好的;健康的; adv.更好地;更妥;更恰当
