憋了一肚子的话，却担心说不清楚？
其实没你想的那么难。英语里有许多简单、好用的小短语，能帮你表达千言万语。
快听Jenny、Spencer分享吧！ >>
英语有句俗话：
A picture is worth a thousand words:一张图胜过千言万语
#1. No sweat &＃2. No biggie 没关系、别客气、举手之劳
"No sweat" is a short version of "no sweat off my back."
"No sweat" 是 "no sweat of my back" 的缩短版
"sweat" 是流汗的意思，紧张的时候是不是会汗流浃背啊？
这时候一句No sweat，就能让人平静不少。
"No biggie" comes from "No big deal".
"No biggie" 是从"No big deal" 演变而来，也是“不是个事儿”的意思。比如：
怎么用？
A: I'm sorry I'm running a few minutes late. 不好意思，我要迟到几分钟。
B: No sweat. 没事的啦/不要紧。
A: Thank you for your help.谢谢你帮我！
B: No biggie. 小事一桩
更多类似说法：
-
Don't worry.
-
No problem.
-
No big deal.
-
It's all good.
#3. You bet! 当然啦、必须的！
"You bet" is similar to "No sweat". But it also has other usages:
"You bet" 和"No sweat"很像，但还有别的用法
This phrase can be used in a variety of situations across the board: 很多广泛场景下都可以用
怎么用？
A: Do you like living in Shanghai？ 你喜欢住在上海吗？
B: You bet. I love it! 当然咯，我非常喜欢！
A: Wasn't the performance last night awesome? 演出真精彩！
B: You bet! 当然！
A: Thank you for treating me to that performance. 谢谢你请我看演出。
B: You bet. 别客气，很乐意。
＊Bet是赌博、猜测的意思＊
You can bet your money on something (it's a safe bet): 你可以堵, 而且这是一个安全、肯定的赌注
#4. Totally 绝对的！
Americans totally love using "totally": 美国人绝对很喜欢用“绝对的”
Totally绝对是美国人的口头禅，用来表达认同和强调
A:Her skirt is too short.她的裙子太短了。
B:Totally. 就是啊!
A: This hamburger is delicious.这个汉堡太好吃了
B: Totally. It's mouthwatering.绝对的！让人口水直流
The term first came from valley girls: 这个表达最早是起源于“山谷女孩”。
Valley girls are girls from Socal (Southern California) “山谷女孩”是南加州的女孩们，因为南加州被称为“山谷”
#5. literally 真的，毫不夸张的！
"Literally" 也是美国人最爱的口头禅之一
Literally means "actually", without exaggeration: literally的意思是“字面上讲”，指很真实、不夸张，用来强调真实性。
但是实际使用起来却通常相反，超级夸张！
对比一下：
-
The office is so hot. I'm literally sweating. 办公室真热，我真的在流汗，一点都不夸张
-
It's so hot in the office. I'm literally dying. 办公室真热，我是真的要热死了，一点都不夸张。（但明显就是夸张）
还有一些词，比如"practically"，用起来也同样矛盾。下次有机会跟大家分享。
#6. Likewise 我也是
I literally can't recommend this phrase more: 毫不夸张，我真的太推荐这个词了
"Likewise" is used to agree with someone or express a mutual feeling: 它用来赞同别人的意见、或者表达同感
It's very useful in social networking situations: 社交场合很有用
It will help you sound very authentic: 它能帮你听上去很地道
怎么用？
A: It's a pleasure to meet you. 认识你很高兴
B: Likewise. 我也是
A: It's been great talking to you.跟你聊的很高兴
B: Likewise. 我也是
但是有种情况千万不能用！
A: I love you! 我爱你。
B: Likewise. 我也是。
Don't say that! 有人跟你说我爱你，千万别回答“likewise”
It's too cold and lighthearted: 太冷淡、太漫不经心了
帮你长话短说的小短语
#7. Long story short 长话短说
If you don't want to go into too much detail, you can summarize or sum things up: 如果不想赘述很多细节，那可以概括总结一下。
比如，Jenny常被问：
A: When did you start OpenLanguage? How did you started OpenLanguage?
你什么时候开始创办开言英语的？你怎么会创办开言英语的？
B: We started three years ago. Long story short, we are the leading English podcast in China now. 我们三年前开始的, 长话短说, 现在开言是国内最受欢迎的英语播客之一
如果觉得自己说得太多、或者说不下去了，
Long story short 也非常适合！
#8. In a nutshell 简单来说
It's similar to "long story short": 这个短语和“long story short”很接近
It can help you move the conversation forward. 可以帮你推进谈话
Use "in a nutshell" if you want to skip detailed description or put a complex idea in simple words: 如果你不想讲很多细节、或者想把复杂的事情用简单的话表达，可以用这个短语
It's a great snapshot: 是个很好的概括
#9. The rest is history 其它的都已是历史（就不多说了）
“The rest is history" is often used to describe past achievements: 常用来描述过去的成就
怎么用？
Steve Jobs started Apple in his garage with some computer parts and a little bit of passion. As they say, the rest is history: 乔布斯当年在自家车库靠一些零件和热情起步。
其它的都已成为历史，言下之意就是大家都知道苹果后来成为了伟大的公司
演讲时很常用
Speech/public speaking: 演讲
It's often used when people talk about a successful person or company: 常用来描述成功的人或公司
Everyone knows their success now, so there's no need to go into details: 大家都知道他们的成就，不用说很多过程中的细节
另外还有个说法，也有相同意思：
Fastforward to today：快进到今天
＃10. Well said! 说得很好
