英语口语交际对话:“有钱没钱”的时尚英文表达

线话英语|2015-05-08 16:05:07

  钱财虽说是身外之物,可是正因为它处于世人之外,才让世人如此眷恋、痴迷。今天的英语口语交际对话 就从钱来时吧。不管有钱没钱,咱们的嘴巴还是要说话的呢。

     有钱

  I'm loaded.

 

 

  Loaded: [Slang] Having a great deal of money. 非常有钱。

  它既可以表现某人很富有,也能够用来表示某人当初手里很有钱。

  英语口语交际对话例句:

 

 

  A: I think football players get paid far too much money.

 

 

  B: I know. Can you imagine being loaded like that? Having expensive cars and lots of houses--it must be incredible.

 

 

  A: I can't afford to go out tonight. I've spent all my money.

  B: Don't worry. I'm loaded right now. I'll treat you to a night out.

  除了用loaded表示有钱,minted跟rolling也有这方面的含意。

  I'm minted.

  Mint有造币厂的意思( A place where the coins of a country are manufactured by authority of the government.),造币厂里有多少钱就不用说了,所以mint的形容词有abundant amount of money的意思。

 

 

  I'm rolling in it.

 

 

  Rolling 就是打滚的意思,钱多得可以在里面打滚,真是够有钱的英语口语交际对话讲解。

  没钱

 

 

  I'm really skint.

  Skint: [Slang] Without money, esp. only temporarily

 

 

  由上面的阐明可以看出,If someone is skint, they have very little money。诚然skint可以表示poor的意思,但却不能完全调换poor。因为skint is usually used when someone has run out of money temporarily,它常指某人由于最近手头比较紧,钱花完了,然而很快就又会有钱了he will have some money again quite soon,所以skint 表示一个人短时期,常设不钱。比喻月光族们在花完了这个月工资,等待下个月工资的时候,就可能说自己skint。

 

 

  英语口语交际对话例句:

 

 

  A: Do you want to come to the cinema on Friday night?

 

 

  B: I can't, I'm really skint this month.

 

 

  A: My girlfriend likes to shop a lot.

  B: Oh really, does she have expensive taste?

 

 

  A: Yes. I'm usually skint after we go out shopping together.

  当然了,有钱跟没钱都是相对而言的。哪天I can't afford to buy lunch. I'm too skint.的时候,真渴望听到你说I'll buy you lunch. I'm loaded.
