 周末就要到愚人节了,面对小伙伴们的各种恶作剧,迫在眉睫、重中之重、亟待掌握的就是“吓唬”的英文地道表达~


《Sherlock》第四季第一集,剧中这样一幕:
Lady Smallwood: You also say you know what he's going to do next. What does that mean?
Sir Edwin: Perhaps that's all there is to it. Perhaps he was just trying to frighten you.
frighten 恐吓,吓唬。在美式英语中用的比较少,在英式英语中日常常用
I'm sorry I didn't mean to frighten you. I didn't know you were still here. 不好意思我没想吓你。我不知道你还在这儿。
His temper frightens me. When he loses it, he looks like he's gonna hit somebody. 我被他的脾气吓到了。他发起火来就像要打人一样。
而相对应的美式英语口语中一般用:scare 吓唬
You scared the crap out of me. Don't sneak 1 up on me like that. 你把我吓死了,不要悄悄的从后面吓我。
Your cat scares me. It hisses 2 at me every time I'm over. 你的猫把我吓到了,每次我来它都冲我嘶嘶叫。

1 sneak
vt.潜行(隐藏,填石缝);偷偷摸摸做;n.潜行;adj.暗中进行
  • He raised his spear and sneak forward.他提起长矛悄悄地前进。
  • I saw him sneak away from us.我看见他悄悄地从我们身边走开。
2 hisses
嘶嘶声( hiss的名词复数 )
  • The speaker was received with a mixture of applause and hisses. 那演说者同时得到喝彩声和嘘声。
  • A fire hisses if water is thrown on it. 把水浇到火上,火就发出嘶嘶声。
