大家都知道shut up可以表示闭嘴,当然也可以连读成shutup, 不过英语里面“闭嘴”很多时候不用shut up 哦,比如用“Shhh ! ”和中文的“嘘”几乎一模一样有木有? 一起来看看可以用哪些短语表示闭嘴吧!
In some situations, you might have to tell people to quieten down and stop talking just before someone is about to speak (in a presentation, a meeting or conference) or a play is about to start in the theatre. In those instances, you would politely ask people to stop talking.
有时候在别人正准备说话前(做介绍或在会议中)或是剧场里表演开始前,你需要告诉大家安静下来,别再说话了。这些情况下,你需要礼貌地告诉大家不该再说话了。
However, there are many more situations when you don’t want to politely ask the person or people to stop talking, especially if they have really annoyed you or you are fed up with the noise they’re making. In which case, the idioms below would come in extremely useful!
但是,很多情况下你不想礼貌地请别人停止说话,尤其是他们打扰到你或是你受够了他们制造的噪音,这时候下面的习语就派上用场啦!
1. Put a sock in it (英式英语)
I’ve had enough of your moaning for one day. Why don’t you put a sock in it?
