   "When pigs fly" ?what it means in English


  英文口语中的"When pigs fly"是什么意思?
  "When pigs fly?"在字面上是没什么意思的。何时猪长了翅膀?然而,对于一位外籍人士来说就完全到味了。when pigs fly是一句是非常棒的惯用语,或实际所要表达的意思完全不同于字面上的意思。让我们来看看这些好玩的惯用语吧!
  When pigs fly
  猪不会飞!这是不可能准确表示其意思。例如:你听过某人说:「Do you think Mary will quit her job now that she's pregnant?」另一个人则回答:「Yeah, when pigs fly! There is no way she is giving up her career!」当他/她使用这个表达方式when pigs fly意思是说Mary要辞去她的职务是不可能的事情。
