英文溝通中常見的諺語

在和外教溝通的過程中，我們可能會聽到外教用一些地道的英語表達(dá)來描述自己的心情或傳達(dá)自己的態(tài)度，除了一些我們經(jīng)常見到的縮略語例如“ASAP（as soon as possible）”，“thx( thanks)”,“LOL( laugh out aloud)”，常用的短句“You bet!(當(dāng)然）”“I see.（我知道了）”“No, prob.（沒問題）”有些外國人在聊天時(shí)還喜歡用諺語。與前者不同的是，我們在英語學(xué)習(xí)中接觸的地道的英語諺語較少，在聊天時(shí)可能難以察覺外教在使用諺語，只理解了字面意思從而導(dǎo)致疑惑的產(chǎn)生，有時(shí)甚至還會造成誤解。如一位外教在溝通時(shí)表達(dá)“you are putting the cart before the horse( 把馬車放在馬前面， 形容本末倒置） ”，這個(gè)時(shí)候，如果你不能完全理解外教的意思，繼續(xù)侃侃而談，那么你很可能錯(cuò)失了挽回外教的時(shí)機(jī)。所以了解一些常見的英文諺語，還是有必要的，下面我們就來看一些比較常見的英文諺語。
