be busy接什么(最近在忙啥)(1)

“嗨,一段时间没见,最近忙啥呢?”.......

翻译:

What are you busy doing lately?

没毛病,翻译地很正确,但怪怪的,怪在哪里呢?不够口语化,不够专业化,人家不会这么说,那里看看专业的口语里怎么表达“最近忙啥呢?”。

一个很简单的词,up,什么?竟然是这个单词?.......Of course!

1.What are you up to?

这句简单的英语包含了四种意思,第一,相当于What's up?或者What have you been up (recently/lately)? 你最近在忙什么? 第二,相当于What are you doing? 你在做什么? 第三,相当于What are you going to do? 你打算做什么? 例如,What are you up to tonight? 今晚你打算做什么? 第四, 当说话者语气不同的时候,表达一种不满的情绪,What are you up to? 相当于说“你搞什么鬼?”
