两个词的英语谚语篇一
常用英语谚语成语
1. 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。
2. A penny saved is a penny earned.
[字面意思]节省一个便士就等于挣了一个便士。
[解释]省钱是明智的做法。省一分就是赚一分。不要因为钱的数目不大就不把它当一回事瞧不起小钱是不对的，要记住A penny saved is a penny earned这条经验。
3. A watched pot never boils.
[字面意思]眼睛盯着看的壶永远不会开。
[解释]事情在进行中，不到时候就不会有结果，要水到渠成才行。心急锅不开。你着急，急也没用！用眼睛盯着它看也无济于事，事情不会因为你着急就会有较快的进展。
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. 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。
6. 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。
7.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.
8. Beggars can't be choosers.
[字面意思]乞丐不可能有选择。
[解释]你得到的不完全是你想得到的，可能条件或质量等方面差一些，但没有再选择的余地，只能接受不十分满意的事物。这就叫Beggars can't be choosers.
9. Better safe than sorry.
[字面意思]安全比遗憾好
[解释]最好不要去冒险。即使不冒险你得多费些功夫，多做些枯燥无味的工作，这都值得。总比为了省事而冒险强。变体：Better to be safe than sorry.
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。
11. Every little helps.
[字面意思]每一小部分都有帮助。
[解释]点点滴滴，有其助益。一颗颗粮食堆成山，一块块铜板成千万。偏远地区的孩子没学上，我们有义务帮助他们。希望大家多支持，捐钱、捐书、捐铅笔，什么都行。多捐多感谢、少捐也不嫌，Every little helps.
12. Good wine needs no bush.
[字面意思]好酒不需要做广告。

[解释]我在洗耳恭听。我很感兴趣，我在集中精力，全神贯注地等你往下说。比如：女朋友说"我今天下午去参加面试了。你想知道结果吗？"女朋友没往下说，就等男朋友开口，希望他说："Tell me! Tell me! I'm all ears!"
14. If the cap fits, wear it.
[字面意思]如果帽子合适，就戴着吧。
[解释]要是言之中肯，就接受吧。你的作业没做好，老师认为你看电视太多，影响了你的学习。老师说你是"电视迷"（TV addict），你不承认。你我同住一个宿舍，我很清楚老师说的是对的，所以If the cap fits, wear it.
15. 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!
16. It gets my goat.
[字面意思]动了我的山羊。
[解释]某事使你生气，你可以说It gets my goat（真让人生气！）比如我看到有人站在路中间说话，挡着道，我还得绕着过去，我就特别生气。变体：It gets on my goat.
17. It slipped my mind .
[字面意思]从大脑里溜走了。
[解释]忘记了。没记住。我本想告诉你，你的女朋友来电话了，但是我把这事给忘记了。I meant to tell you your girl friend had called, but it slipped my mind.
18. It takes two to tango.
[字面意思]跳探戈舞需要两个人。
[解释]一个巴掌拍不响。孤掌难鸣。如果两个人在吵架，我认为错不在一方，两人都不对，那就可以说It takes two to tango.

20. It's my word against his/hers.
[字面意思]我的话对他/她的话。
[解释]我跟他发生争执，我俩各执一词，没有人可以证明谁对谁不对，公说公有理，婆说婆有理。你该相信谁的话，真是个难题。There were no witnesses to the accident, so it's my word against hers. 这是说不清的事情。

要想使自已的英语口语多姿多彩，魅力无穷，并能很快吸引对方，仅仅流利快速是不够的。许多英语专业毕业生在同外国人交流过程中，经常出现尴尬的场面，两个人都无法准确理解对方。中国学生语速倒是很快，但由于用词的不准确，表达方式的不贴切以及过分追求难词造成的歧义都会使双方感到交流的不畅快，所以，外国人评价中国学生的口语是“Too strange to be true !”(太奇怪，不真实)或“Too beautiful to be natural !”（用词华丽但不自然）使言谈增色，就需要你灵活运用外国人经常使用的习惯说话，包括习语，不过时的俚语及大量的富有特色的语句。不要害怕模仿，只要运用得当，你尽可以引经据典，洋洋洒洒。
当别人在你旁边罗嗦个没完，你烦透了，说“You are so boring “.(你真烦！)。“Shut up !”（闭嘴！）自然没错，可人家受得了吗？不如来一句“Oh, come on .Give me a break !” (帮帮忙，让我歇歇吧！)这多地道、多幽默。
要想说人“气色好”。“You look fine !”当然不错，可如果你说”You’re in the pink !”就妙得多了，实际上，在英语口语中，表示颜色的词用起来非常形象生动。
“他精力充沛”美国人说：“He is bouncy.”而不说“He is energetic ”,牢记一些日常对话中的活句式是你一把必备的钥匙。
如：久仰，“I get mind of you “.比”I heard a lot about you.”轻松得多。
代问他人好当然能用”Please remember me to your sister .” 或”Please give my best wishes to your father ”不过，若是很好的朋友，何不说，“Please give my love to Jim。”
在中国可不能随便说“我想你”，然而，当和西方人分手时说“I will miss you .”要比说“Good-bye”或“See you soon”有趣得多，不妨一试。
有人开会迟到了，你若对他说 “You are late .”，听起来象是废话，若说“Did you get lost ?”，则更能让他歉然，可别说成“Get lost!”那可是让人滚蛋的意思。
别人征求你的意见，问能否开窗户等，你要说“You can do that .”就有点土了，用一句“Do you have the time? ”实际上，问他人的姓名，地址都可以这么用：“May I have you name?“要比”What’s your name ? ”礼貌得多，不过警察例外。
别人问你不愿公开的问题，切勿用“It’s my secret ,Don’t ask such a personal question .”回答，
一来显得你没有个性，二来也让对方尴尬。你可以说“I would rather not say .”（还是别说了吧！）。
有时候，你想说什么，可说是想不起来，你可以说“Well „”“Let me see”“Just a moment ”或“It’s on the tip of my tongue.”等，想比之下，最后一个句型是最地道的。
交谈时，你可能会转换话题，不要只说“By the way ”,实际上，“To change the subject”“Before I forget”“While I remember”“Mind you ”都是既地道有受欢迎的表达。
遇到你不懂的问题时可别不懂装懂，“I know”可能是中国人用得最多，而美国人最不能接受的一句话。当一美国教师向你解释某个问题时，你如果连说两遍“I know”可能是中国人用得最多，而美国人最不能接受的一句话。当一美国教师向你解释某个问题时，你如果连说两遍“I know”,我敢保证，他不会再跟你说什么了。用“I know ”或“I got it ”就顺耳得多，要是不懂就说“I’m not clear about it .”不过如果你会说“It’s past my understanding”或“It’s beyond me .”你的教师定会惊讶不已的。

有时候有话在心口难开？快来看看下面这些地道的口语表达吧！希望它们能及时地给您出出招。
1. It's not like that. 不是那样的。这句话是用来辟谣的。当别人误会了一件事的来龙去脉，你就可以跟他说It's not like that.当然随着语气及情境的不同，It's not like that这句话也有可能是你用来硬拗的藉口。
2. I've gotten carried away. 我扯太远了。 Get carried away字面上的意思是“被带走了”。当你或是他人说话的时候离了题，偏离主旨扯远了，你就可以用上这个表达法。
3. Good thing... 还好，幸好„„ 在美语当中若要表达中文里“还好，幸好„„”的语气，你就可以用good thing做开头。这个句型非常简单又好用，你只要在Good thing后面加上完整的句子就可以。
4. I don't believe you're bringing this up. 你现在提这件事真是岂有此理。 Bring something up是指“提到（某件事）”。当然情况会有正反两面。你若没想到对方会提起这件事讨骂，你可以说这句话。而反过来说，若你很高兴对方主动提起了一件事，你也可以用这个表达。
5. There's no other way of saying it. 没有别的说法。有时候不管你再怎么委婉，也没有办法更婉转或是避开一些绝对会出现的词，这时候你就可以用上这句话，来表达自己避无可避的为难，因为“没有别的说法”。
6. Is there someone else? 你是不是有了新欢？这句话字面上是指“有其它人吗？”，不过这句话在使用上，问的那个“其它人”是感情上的“新欢，新对象”，所以若是情侣或是夫妻之间有人说了这句话这可就不太妙了。
7. That will not always be the case. 情况不会永远是这样。 Case这个词有“情况”的意思，That will be the case就是指“情况就会是这样了”。但是你若觉得现在的情况只会是暂时，不会长久，你就可以反过来说“That will not always be the case. 情况不会永远是这样。”
8. I was being polite. 我这是在说客气话。当然你若要说一个人有礼貌，你可以说He is polite或是
He has good manners。不过I was being polite这句话是指“我这是在说客气话”，使用的情境比较趋近于客套而不伤和气的出发点。
9. So that explains it. 原来如此有时候事情的来龙去脉浑沌不清，让人摸不着头脑，若是突然曙光一现，让你豁然开朗，这会儿你就可以用上这句话So that explains it / everything.“这就都说得通了。”
10. I feel the same way. 我有同感。当他人说出了你的感觉，你再同意不过的时候，你就可以用上这句话。这句话不但可以让你避免把同样的话再讲一次，还可以让对方觉得自己的意见被尊重呢。 有时候有话在心口难开？快来看看下面这些地道的口语表达吧！希望它们能及时地给您出出招。
1. What have you got to lose? 你有什么损失？当别人犹豫不决、始终做不了决定，你就可以用这句话来增强对方破釜沉舟的决心。
2. You shouldn't be so hard on yourself. 你不该对自己这么苛刻。这句话是用来安慰他人的，当有人对自己太过苛责，给自己让人喘不过气来的压力，你就可以跟对方说这句话，让对方好过一些。
3. Don't get me started on it. 别让我打开话匣子。这句话意思是你对于某一件事或是一个主题，有很多的意见，要是让你开了话头，可能就要听你连说个七天七夜，没完没了。这句话是用来表达你对一件事情牢骚满腹的心情。
4. I don't know what came over me. 我不知道自己是哪根筋不对这句话的使用时机是，当你觉得自己方才的举动反应，跟平常的自己判若两人，等自己回过味来，才觉得有所不妥，你就可以用这句话和别人解释了。
5. I don't seem to fit. 我跟这里格格不入。通常也会说成I don’t seem to fit in。当你觉得某个地方或场合，和你犯冲，待在那里就是让你浑身不对劲时，你就可以说这句话。
6. I don't have time for this. 我没时间瞎搅和。这句话的使用时机主要有两个，一是当，你却发现整个过程是在浪费时间，这时你就可以这么说，以表示自己的不耐烦；它的另一个使用时机，就是当有人一味地拐弯抹角说话，你就可以用这句话要对方赶快切入正题。

1. What are you up to? 你正在做什么？
假设你在办公室想跟同事沟通下工作情况，又怕耽误对方的工作，就可以先问同事"In the middle of something?"(你在忙吗？)如果对方回答"Kind of."(算是吧。)这时你就可以继续你的谈话了，比如可以做一下谈话前的“热身”，问对方："What are you up to?"(你最近在忙什么啊？)，然后再展开你想沟通的话题。
另外美国人见面时常用的问候语"What’s up?"就与"What are you up to?"在意思方面很接近，都是问“你最近在做什么啊？”但是需要注意一点：语气的不同所表达的意思也不相同，比如你发现在未经你允许的情况下，别人正在你的办公桌上乱翻，就可以过去责问他"What are you up to?"(你正在搞什鬼？)。除此以外"What are you up to?"还有其他意思，比如你的同事正在完成某个项目，你就可以说"What are you up to?"(目前进展如何？)当然"What are you up to?"与"What are you doing?"意思基本相同，可相互取代，但是多变的表达方式会令你在工作期间的交流中显得更加出
