  • The first expression I want to teach you today is: "storm out". So, what is a storm? A storm

    今天要教的第一句是:"storm out",所以,什麼是storm? Storm

  • is when you have heavy rain, lots of lightning, lots of loud "boom" thunder sounds. So that's

    就是當有暴雨,閃電,不斷的打雷聲,那就是

  • a storm. So we use it when we talk about weather, but we also can use it when we talk about

    暴風雨。我們在談論天氣時使用這個字,但我們也可以把它用在論述

  • how people leave. Okay. So when someone leaves a room very angrily, - okay -, they storm

    人們離開的方式。當一個人氣沖沖地離開房間,他們就是 storm

  • out. I don't know if you've ever seen someone storm out, but if maybe you have two friends

  • and they have a fight, when there's a fight, usually one person storms out; they leave

    有所爭執,當在吵架時,通常有個人會憤而離去。他們離開

  • the room quickly and angrily. So the key word here: "angry".

    房間,既迅速又生氣。所以重點在這邊,生氣地

  • Our second expression: "under the weather". Okay. And it's important to note which preposition

    下一個,"under the weather"。很重要的是要注意介詞

    在這邊的使用,並不是"over the weather"。"Under the weather",這代表什麼意思呢?事實上這

  • doesn't have to do with weather. It means you're sick if you are under the weather.

  • It's a common expression; we use it a lot. -"How are you feeling today?" -"Oh, I'm a

    這是很常見的用法;我們常常使用它。 - 你今天覺得如何? -噢,我有

  • little under the weather.", "My teacher didn't come to school today; she was feeling a little

    一點身體不舒服 -老師今天沒有來學校,她身體有些

  • under the weather." So we can use: "I'm under the weather." Or: "I'm feeling under the weather."

    狀況。 所以我們可以說"I'm under the weather"或者"I'm feeling under the weather."

  • Both are okay. Third expression for today: "weather that

    兩者都可以,而今天的第三個用法:"weather that

  • storm". So again, I showed you what a storm is, lots of rain, thunder, lightning. What

    storm" 又一次的,我讓你們知道暴風雨是什麼,很多雨,雷,跟閃電。什麼

  • does it mean to "weather a storm" or "that storm"? Well, when you weather a storm, it

    是"weather a storm"或 "that storm"的意思?當你 weather a storm,它

    詞。(風呼呼聲) 風,如果說一個人 get wind of something,就像是風吹給你

  • information. So to get wind of something means you find out information or a secret. So maybe

    在某個人的生日派對上,也許你為你的朋友準備了很大的驚喜

  • You don't want them to get wind of the party; you want to keep it a secret, you don't want

  • "Oh, there's going to be a party for me." They get... They got wind of the party. So

    被帶走。我喜歡這個措辭,這挺不錯的

  • Number six: "take a rain check". This is a very, very common expression. What does it

    第六句:"take a rain check" 這是非常常見的用法。它代表

    我不能參加派對" 這意味重新安排日子。 第七句:暴風雨前的寧靜

  • So what does..? You remember what "storm" means, and "calm" is a synonym for quiet.

    所以這是⋯?你記得暴風雨的意思,而寧靜則是安靜的同義詞

  • So "calm" means it's very quiet; no loud noise. "The calm before the storm" means the quiet

    所以寧靜代表非常安靜,沒有嘈雜聲。 暴風雨前的寧靜意味著在

  • before a bad situation. So, an example: maybe there's a boyfriend and a girlfriend, and

    某種不好的情境前的寧靜。舉例來說,一對男女朋友

    都能感覺到不好的時候要來了,但就是尚未來到。所以這就是在

  • there's a fight, before there's a big problem, the time before when it's quiet.

    爭執前的時光,在嚴重的問題發生前,這段時間是安靜的

    "I'm on cloud nine." 第九句:搶風頭

    搶某個人的風頭是什麼意思? 如果你搶走某個人的風頭⋯ 雷聲

  • is the loud noise you hear during a storm, it's the "boom" sound the sky makes, that's

    是暴風雨中很大的噪音,是天空中的轟隆轟隆聲,那就是

  • thunder. If you steal someone's thunder, it means you take someone's attention away. So,

    雷聲。如果你搶某個人的風頭,這代表著你奪過某個人的注意力,所以
