diet,本意为(节制)饮食
一想到“减肥”这个词,您一定会先想到diet。今天就向您多介绍几种表示减肥的英语。
我正在减肥:I’m on a diet/I’m currently dieting
注意身材:I’m watch my weight (sorry, I can’t have some cake)
计算卡路里:I’m counting calories at the moment to try and lose some weight.
瘦身:I’m just trying to slim down a little bit before my wedding
减重:I need to shed a few pounds before my holiday
塑身:he really needs to get into shape before it’s too late.
出于好意夸他人瘦时,请不要说skinny,这个词有“瘦弱”的暗含意味。
网上搜索skinny的结果
She’s so skinny that she looks ill, 她太瘦了,看起来好像生了病。
想夸苗条,推荐您以下几个词
1. Slim(这个最常用),如:you look so slim.
2. Slender, 如:Sam is not as slender as he used to be. 萨姆没有以前瘦了。
此外,外国没有“脸小好看“的观念(很多欧美人倒是喜欢高颧骨,这点又和我们相去甚远),如果您夸一个老外You’ve got a small face,她会感觉莫名其妙。如果您希望称赞他/她长得好看,可以说:you’ve got a nice face. 或者直接整体性地称赞对方:you’re pretty, you’re very good looking.
您学会了吗?本期内容介绍完毕。
