英语中如何优雅地骂人 英语吵架百句

Posted by & filed under English.

讲英语难, 吵架更难. 虽说人在国外总是想尽办法以和为贵, 但要跟人家吵架怎么办?
很多人一生气, 所有的英文都忘光了, 平常英文就说不出口, 更何况是吵架, 所以满脑子浮现的不是 Fxxx 就是 Sxxx 这样是很不好的. 我还听过有一个人很绝, 英文骂不过人家就用中文骂, 反正对方听得懂听不懂都无关紧要, 重要的是让他知道你很凶, 而且你正在骂他就行了. 这集还是让我们来看看一些比较文雅的骂人以及吵架的方式.
1. I’m so fed up with your BS. Cut the crap.  我受够了你的废话, 少说废话吧.
美女 (美国的女人) 是不喜欢说 shit 这个不雅的字的, 所以她们就说 shoot, 或是BS(=Bull …

经典爱情26个字母

Posted by & filed under English, LIFE.

A-accept(接受)

“世上没有十全十美的人”。记着,你爱他,就必须接受他的一切,甚至他的缺点。

 

B-belief(信任)

不信任对方,经常以怀疑的口吻盘问对方,这种互相猜的爱情就只有分手下场。

 

C-care(关心)

关心的程度正好表现你对对方的重视程度,间或打个电话给对方关心地问候一句:“工作辛苦吗?”又或者传呼他:“天气凉了,记得多”。这些关心未必有实际用途,但起码能令对方暖在心头。

 

D-digest(理解)

我们不是圣人,总有情绪起伏的时候,若对方是“凸”的时候,你何不做“凹”去忍耐一下他,安慰一下他呢?

E-encouragement(激励)

夫妻之间互相欣赏,互相激励,尤其是在逆境和一些关键时刻,来自伴侣的激励的能量远比想象的要强的多。

F-freedom(自由)

纵然已婚,也应给予对方应有自由及保持秘密的权利。你的另一半不是你的终生奴隶,不要让他认为跟你结婚就等于被困笼中。

 

G-give(付出)

爱情这样东西不一定是你付出“一”,便会收回“一”。但不付出便一定没有收获。对你的爱人,应有如对自己一样,毫无保留地付出,这才算得上真爱。

 

H-heart(心)

爱情最重要的道具是心,你必须真心对待,用心去爱。没有心,又怎称得上真心相爱?

 

I-independence(独立)

甜言蜜语的人会说:“我是为了你而生。”其实,每个人都有自己的生存意义,不应过分依赖对方,成为对方的沉重负担,甚至累赘。

 

J-jealousy(妒忌)

适当的妒忌、呷醋能表示你对对方的重视,但切记是合情合理的呷醋;反之,毫不讲理,大发雷霆地呷醋,必惹反感。

 

K-kiss(吻)
