2016-07-16

Love is blind.

[字面意思]爱情是盲目的。

[解释]情人眼里出西施。究竟他为什么爱上了她?我是不理解，但谁也说不清。爱情就是这样，正像人们常说的一样，Love is blind. 典出罗马神话，爱神丘比特Cupid用布蒙着眼睛，生有双翅，持弓箭，"爱情之箭"会盲目地射出。

Little leaks sink the ship.

[字面意思]小漏洞会使一条船沉没。

[解释]千里长堤，溃于蚁穴。不能轻视出现的小问题，时间长了可能会引起大麻烦。

Let bygones be bygones.

[字面意思]让过去的就过去吧。

[解释]忘掉过去不愉快的事情。我们俩有过不和的时候，但希望以后我们还是朋友。昨天我跟你吵架了，今天我对你说：I am sorry we had a row last night. Let's become friends again and let bygones be bygones.

A word to the wise.

[字面意思]送给智者的一句话。

[解释]给明智而愿意接受别人意见或建议的人提出忠告。我知道你能听进去话，所以我才跟你这么说。我说的是正确的，对你有好处，而且我知道你也会听取我的意见。

In for a penny, in for a pound!

[字面意思]赌一便士是赌，赌一英镑也是赌。

[解释]类似"一不做、二不休"的说法。这是当你要准备参与某个项目，准备投入你的财力，时间或精力的时候可能说的一句话。你买股票时，拿不定主意，是买进100 股，还是再多买一点。我劝你："我看能赚大钱，干脆多买点儿，In for a penny, in for a pound!

All is well that ends well.

[字面意思]结尾好就意味着一切都好。

[解释]结局好，一切都好。出自莎士比亚剧本名。在开始或中间环节出现的一些小的差错或麻烦无关紧要，没什么大不了的，只要最终的结局令人满意，那就是好的。

Bad news travels fast.

[字面意思]坏消息传得快。

[解释]好事不出门，坏事传千里。

Beauty is only skin deep.

[字面意思]美貌只是肤浅的。

[解释]美貌只是表面现象而已。以貌取人靠不住。你不能只看到她有漂亮的面孔就向她求爱，你还应该考虑其它方面的因素。找结婚伴侣是要过日子，不是当海报招贴画来看的。我的忠告是两句话：Beauty is only skin-deep. True feelings are more important.

A cat may look at a king.

[字面意思]猫也可以看国王。

[解释]无名小卒也可以评论大人物。人皆可以为尧舜。不要因为别人的资格不够老，或经不如你多，就不让他发表意见。

Easy come, easy go.

[字面意思]来的容易，去的快。

[解释]这句话适合讲给那些把什么事都看得容易的人。尤其是对那种认为挣钱容易，不把钱当钱，对任何事情都不担心的人最适合。应该提醒这种人"钱不是长在树上的"。钱不是像树上的果实一样，今年吃光了明年还会自动长出来。有些人自己不挣钱，不知道挣钱的艰辛。

一句英语谚语yaopei篇五

10句英文谚语,这样解释就会用啦!

10句英文谚语，这样解释就会用啦！

1、Love is blind.

【字面意思】爱情是盲目的。

【解释】情人眼里出西施。究竟他为什么爱上了她？我是不理解，但谁也说不清。爱情就是这样，正像人们常说的一样，Love is blind. 典出罗马神话，爱神丘比特Cupid用布蒙着眼睛，生有双翅，持弓箭，“爱情之箭”会盲目地射出。

2、Little leaks sink the ship.

【字面意思】小漏洞会使一条船沉没。

【解释】千里长堤，溃于蚁穴。不能轻视出现的小问题，时间长了可能会引起大麻烦。

3、Let bygones be bygones.

【字面意思】让过去的就过去吧。

[解释]忘掉过去不愉快的事情。我们俩有过不和的时候，但希望以后我们还是朋友。昨天我跟你吵架了，今天我对你说：I am sorry we had a row last night. Let's become friends again and let bygones be bygones.{一句英语谚语yaopei}.

4、A word to the wise.

【字面意思】送给智者的一句话。

【解释】给明智而愿意接受别人意见或建议的人提出忠告。我知道你能听进去话，所以我才跟你这么说。我说的是正确的，对你有好处，而且我知道你也会听取我的意见。

5、In for a penny, in for a pound！

【字面意思】赌一便士是赌，赌一英镑也是赌。

【解释】类似“一不做、二不休”的说法。这是当你要准备参与某个项目，准备投入你的财力，时间或精力的时候可能说的一句话。你买股票时，拿不定主意，是买进100 股，还是再多买一点。我劝你：“我看能赚大钱，干脆多买点儿，In for a penny, in for a pound!”

6、All is well that ends well.

【字面意思】结尾好就意味着一切都好。

【解释】结局好，一切都好。出自莎士比亚剧本名。在开始或中间环节出现的一些小的差错或麻烦无关紧要，没什么大不了的，只要最终的结局令人满意，那就是好的。

7、Bad news travels fast.

【字面意思】坏消息传得快。

【解释】好事不出门，坏事传千里。

8、Beauty is only skin deep.

【字面意思】美貌只是肤浅的。

【解释】美貌只是表面现象而已。以貌取人靠不住。你不能只看到她有漂亮的面孔就向她求爱，你还应该考虑其它方面的因素。找结婚伴侣是要过日子，不是当海报招贴画来看的。我的忠告是两句话：Beauty is only skin-deep. True feelings are more important.

9、A cat may look at a king.

【字面意思】猫也可以看国王。

【解释】无名小卒也可以评论大人物。人皆可以为尧舜。不要因为别人的资格不够老，或经验不如你多，就不让他发表意见。

10、Easy come, easy go.

【字面意思】来的容易，去的快。

【解释】这句话适合讲给那些把什么事都看得容易的人。尤其是对那种认为挣钱容易，不把钱当钱，对任何事情都不担心的人最适合。应该提醒这种人“钱不是长在树上的”。钱不是像树上的果实一样，今年吃光了明年还会自动长出来。有些人自己不挣钱，不知道挣钱的艰辛。

一句英语谚语yaopei篇六

英语谚语112句精讲

1、A man is not old as long as he is seeking something. A man is not old until regrets take the place of dreams (J. Barrymore)

只要一个人还有追求，他就没有老。直到后悔取代了梦想，一个人才算老。(巴里摩尔) as long as是经常用的连接词，有两个意思。第一种表示既然、由于，同since接近,比如As long as you've offered this sports car, I'll accept it.既然你要给我这辆跑车，我就接受了。第二种意思表示只要，引导条件状语从句，这种意思较第一种常见，也就是格言中的用法。

例如，I'll let her go as long as you give me ten thousand pounds.只要你给我一万英镑，我就放了她。这时，往往可以用provided that替换。I'll let her go provided that you give me ten thousand pounds.但显然，provided that要正式些。

这句话中还有一个词组：take the place of，它的意思是代替，这里的the一定不能省略。例如：The computer is taking the place of TV in our lives.再例如: The word "replace" could take the place of "take the place of" in the above example.是不是有点糊涂了？在上面的例句中，take the place of也可以用replace代替。

2、A good education gives a man a great pull.

良好的教育对人是至关重要的。(良好的教育给人很大的好处。)

这句话中的pull有着其特殊的用法。Pull通常情况下都做动词，有拖、拉、牵的意思；但是这里的pull是名词用法，它的意思是influence, informal special influence that gives you some advantage(有利条件，影响力)。

这句话说明了一个人的成才除了会受到先天的影响，后天的良好教育也是必不可少的。 让我们来看下面一个句子：

The name of his family gives him a lot of pull in this town.

在这个小镇上，他的姓氏给他带来了不少好处。

3、Take no thought for tomorrow. 莫为明日愁。

这句话出自《圣经》，意谓着未来的事情都由上帝来安排，不必为明天而烦恼。 4、The course of true love never did run smooth. 好事多磨。

这句话出自莎士比亚的作品《仲夏夜之梦》(A Midsummer Night Dream)。直译为真正的爱情往往要经历许多挫折。

Course,在这里并不是课程的意思，而是过程，进程，历程的意思。Smooth-free from problems or difficulties，没有问题的，无困难的，顺利的。

只在经过艰苦磨难的爱情，才是真正的爱情，也才会让我们更加懂得如何珍惜。 5、Birds of a feather flock together. 物以类聚，人以群分。

A feather,这里是指具有相同的羽毛。Flock,鸟群，词组a flock of可以解释为一群人，一伙人。

比较通俗地来说就是，相同羽毛的鸟类聚集在一起。大家可千万别以为是志同道合，这句话其实通常都用作贬意，有“一丘之貉”之意。所以今后我们在用这个谚语的时候要特别注意。

6、Quality is better than quantity. 质胜于量。

Quality--the degree to which something is excellent; stand of goodness质，质量；Quantity--the fact of being measurable; amount量，数量。

我想大家知道哲学里有这样一句话，只有量的积累，才会有质的飞跃。说明量的积累也是同样很重要的，但是在量的积累的同时，千万别忽视了质量上的要求。

7、A hedge between keeps friendship green. 保持距离，友谊常青。

Hedge,在这里做名词，解释为树篱，障碍物，也就是用于隔离的东西。在这里教大家另外一个词组，我们平时说的"脚踏两条船"用英语该如何表达呢？那就是Hedge one's bet，这里的hedge做动词用，意思是在两面下注以防损失。引申一下也就是"脚踏两条船"。 这句话其实就是“君子之交淡如水”这样一层意思。

相似的表达句子：Good fences make good neighbors.

8、The only way to differentiate yourself from the competition is through service.

只有服务才能真正使你在竞争中凸显。

differentiate使分辨、辨别的意思，常同from和between搭配。例如：I can't differentiate between rose and Chinese rose.我分不清玫瑰和月季。这句话也可以说成I can't differentiate rose from Chinese rose.

但这句名言中differentiate from的意思与这个例句的意思不同，它的意思是"使有差别、有特点从而区别于其他"。那么这句话就是说在激烈的竞争下，只有优质、有特色的服务才能使企业在众多的竞争对手中显示出自己的不同，在竞争中占有一席之地。
