My feet are killing me!
對(duì)話
Marie: You look a bit tired. What have you been doing?
Yvonne: Shopping for some new outfits.
Marie: Did you get what you want?
Yvonne: I did, but it took me all day.
Marie: What do you want to do now?
Yvonne: I just want to sit down somewhere and relax. My feet are killing me!
瑪麗：你看來(lái)有點(diǎn)疲倦，剛才做什么？
伊鳳：逛商品買些新衣服。
瑪麗：買到合適的嗎？
伊鳳：買到，但花了一整天。
瑪麗：你現(xiàn)在想做什么？
伊鳳：我只想找個(gè)地方坐下來(lái)，休息一下。我雙腳酸得要命！
伊鳳說(shuō)雙腳酸痛：My feet are killing me。以kill（殺死）說(shuō)‘痛苦得要命’，是口頭上常見(jiàn)的夸張說(shuō)法。伊鳳還可以說(shuō)：How my feet ache!（我雙腳痛極了）或My feet are sore from all the walking（我走了那么多路，雙腳酸痛）。說(shuō)‘痛苦得要命’的kill，當(dāng)然不限于指腳患，更不限于指走路多了的腳痛。鞋子太緊夾腳（The shoes pinch）、患香港腳（You have got athlete's foot）等，你都可以說(shuō)：My feet are killing me。肩膀、背部等酸痛，你也可以說(shuō)：My shoulders are killing me、My back is killing me等。我見(jiàn)過(guò)一則按摩器廣告說(shuō)：Are your feet killing you? Our massager can stop the murder（尊足是否正在取閣下性命？我們的按摩器可遏止謀殺）。那是以killing一字開(kāi)玩笑?，旣愓f(shuō)伊鳳看來(lái)有點(diǎn)疲倦：You look a bit tired。這a bit可不可以改為a little？Bit是‘小片’或‘少許’，例如a bit of ice cream是‘少許冰淇淋’。A bit之后接tired之類形容詞(adjective)，則是作副詞(adverb)用，和a little沒(méi)有分別，I am a bit/a little angry即‘我有點(diǎn)憤怒’。但請(qǐng)留意：not a bit和not a little意思完全不同。Not a bit是‘一點(diǎn)也不’，not a little則是‘不只有一點(diǎn)’，也即‘十分’。所以，I am not a bit tired/surprised是‘我一點(diǎn)都不疲倦/不驚訝’，I am not a little tired/surprised則是‘我疲倦/驚訝得很’，兩個(gè)說(shuō)法切勿混淆。
