英语习语知多少：十个最常用的英语习语 某天，朋友跟一个老外说起自己刚分手的女友，对方看他难过，拍了拍他的肩膀对他说：“Don't worry about it man, girls like that are a dime a dozen!” 后来朋友跟我说起这件事仍然愤愤不平，说老外把她女友说成只值一块二毛钱! 其实，“dime a dozen”跟“一块二毛钱”没有半毛钱关系。它是一句常见的英语习语，指的是something that is common and easy to obtain(天涯何处无芳草)。 和中文的成语一样，英文中也有数量众多的idioms，如果望文生义，可能就会产生交流中的误会。 话不多说，下面我们就一起来看看英文中最常用、最有趣的十个习语： 1. Piece of cake 例句：The assignment I just finished was a piece of cake. 这个例句说的并不是我刚完成的作业是烤一块蛋糕，而是指作业非常简单，a piece of cake就是指轻而易举的事。 2. Cost an arm and a leg 例句：That Louis Vuitton bag costs me an arm and a leg. 如果在LV买个包包要砍下自己的胳膊和腿，那这个社会就太可怕了! 其实，在英语中，如果说到某个东西要cost an arm and a leg，它表达的是某个东西非常expensive。 3. Break a leg 在你即将要走进考场对付讨厌的微积分考试前，你们班上成绩最好的那个同学突然走过来对你说了句“Break a leg!” “这个傲娇鬼”，你忍不住在心里暗暗抱怨，“成绩好就可以这样诅咒别人吗?” 但其实那个学习好的傲娇鬼却并不是在诅咒你，因为在英文中，break a leg 其实是good luck的意思! 4. Hit the books 例句：The final exam is coming, I might need to go to the library and hit the books.

英语 常用十大翻译技巧
英语常用十大翻译技巧
常用十大翻译技巧之一：增译法 增译法： 指根据英汉两种语言不同的思维方式、语言习惯和表达方式，在翻译时增添一些词、短句或句子，以便更准确地表达出原文所包含的意义。这种方式多半用在汉译英里。汉语无主句较多，而英语句子一般都要有主语，所以在翻译汉语无主句的时候，除了少数可用英语无主句、被动语态或"There be…"结构来翻译以外，一般都要根据语境补出主语，使句子完整。英汉两种语言在名词、代词、连词、介词和冠词的使用方法上也存在很大差别。英语中代词使用频率较高，凡说到人的器官和归某人所有的或与某人有关的事物时，必须在前面加上物主代词。因此，在汉译英时需要增补物主代词，而在英译汉时又需要根据情况适当地删减。英语词与词、词组与词组以及句子与句子的逻辑关系一般用连词来表示，而汉语则往往通过上下文和语序来表示这种关系。因此，在汉译英时常常需要增补连词。英语句子离不开介词和冠词。另外，在汉译英时还要注意增补一些原文中暗含而没有明言的词语和一些概括性、注释性的词语，以确保译文意思的完整。总之，通过增译，一是保证译文语法结构的完整，二是保证译文意思的明确。如： （1）What about calling him right away? 马上给他打个电话，你觉得如何？（增译主语和谓语） （2）If only I could see the realization of the four modernizations. 要是我能看到四个现代化实现该有多好啊！（增译主句） （3）Indeed, the reverse is true. 实际情况恰好相反。（增译名词） （4）就是法西斯国家本国的人民也被剥夺了人权。 Even the people in the fascist countries were stripped of their human rights.（增译物主代词） （5）只许州官放火，不许百姓点灯。 While the magistrates were free to burn down house, the common people were forbidden to light lamps. （增译连词） （6）这是我们两国人民的又一个共同点。 This is yet another common point between the people of our two countries.（增译介词）
