英語(yǔ)中，有一個(gè)單詞叫做：bag lady。很多人看到這個(gè)短語(yǔ)，就容易理解成為“愛(ài)買(mǎi)包的女人”。其實(shí)并不是……
Bag lady:
A homeless woman, especially one in a big city, who carries her possessions with her, as in a shopping bag.
無(wú)家可歸的女子，她們通常生活在大城市，把自己的東西背在購物袋中。
所以，千萬(wàn)別用錯哦！
在英語(yǔ)俚語(yǔ)中，bag是一個(gè)非常靈活的單詞，用法多變。
下面我們就來(lái)學(xué)幾個(gè)比較常用的。
Bag it:
-
Literally, to put or take something in a bag, such as groceries or a meal.
字面意思：將某物裝進(jìn)袋中。例如雜物或食物。
例句：
I'm completely full but the meal was delicious. Could you bag it for me? I'll take it for lunch tomorrow.
我已經(jīng)完全飽了，但是這頓飯太好吃了。你能幫我包起來(lái)嗎？我明天午飯還可以吃。
-
To cancel, abandon, or bring something to an end.
取消、放棄或結束某事。
例句：
After 20 years in the insurance business, I've decided to bag it. I'm going to live my dream as a photographer from now on!
在保險行業(yè)呆了20年，我決定放棄了。從現在開(kāi)始，我要去追尋我的攝影夢(mèng)。
Hold the bag：
To have responsibility or guilt for something foisted upon oneself; to take the blame for something.
對某件事承擔責任或感到愧疚；因為某事承擔指責。
例句：
My partner had been cooking the books for years, but I was left holding the bag when the business collapsed.
我的搭檔偽造假證好多年，但是當生意失敗時(shí)，卻讓我來(lái)承擔責任。
In the bag：
Achieved or won almost as a certainty.
幾乎已經(jīng)達成目標或者獲得勝利。
例句：
Don't start to think we've got this game in the bag, gentlemen. I've seen teams make bigger comebacks than this, so we can't let up.
別以為我們已經(jīng)拿下比賽了，同志們。我見(jiàn)過(guò)有的隊伍取得過(guò)比這個(gè)更大的逆轉，所以我們不能松懈。
