(单词翻译:单击)
Speak of the devil. 说曹操,曹操到。
【用法透视】
本句是一句老话,但却仍是常用的话。在讲话中提到某人时,该人正好出现,这时就可以用这句话来欢迎他的出现,比单纯的 How are you? 或 It's you. 好多了。
【支持范例】
1. Speak of the devil. We were just talking about you.
说曹操,曹操到。我们刚才正谈到你呢。
2. Talk of the devil!
说曹操,曹操到!
3. A:Speak of the devil.
说曹操,曹操到。
B:Why? What were you talking about me?
怎么?你们在说我什么?
【会话记忆】
A: Well, speak of the devil.
哇,真是说曹操,曹操到。
B: What do you mean?
你是什么意思?
A: I was just thinking about you the other day.
我日前才刚刚想到你。
B: You were?
你真的想到我?
