在我們的日常生活中,肯定會(huì)有自己非常要好的朋友,也總會(huì)有一些小秘密給我們朋友們互相分享。小時(shí)候我們就經(jīng)常玩勾手指,那么長(zhǎng)大后的我們要對(duì)方保守秘密的時(shí)候應(yīng)該怎么表達(dá)呢?其實(shí)你可以這樣說:
This is just between you and me.
這句話的意思就是“天知地知,你知我知”,說明兩個(gè)人非常信任對(duì)方,這個(gè)秘密絕對(duì)不能給第三個(gè)人知道。這也就是我們今天要來學(xué)習(xí)的“天知地知,你知我知”了。
What happened between you and me will be safely secret and a lovely memory.
我們之間的事將會(huì)成為秘密,并且成為一段美好的回憶。
between you and me其實(shí)還可以有變體,一個(gè)是between ourselves,一個(gè)是between us,下面我們來看看幾個(gè)例子吧。
Just between ourselves, I’m afraid that he is beyond all hope of recovery.
僅在你我之間說說,恐怕他完全沒有康復(fù)的希望了。
I’ve warned them not to let on to him about it, because I think we can settle it between ourselves.
我不許他們?nèi)?bào)告他,我們私下先把這件事了結(jié)了吧。
What we said today is just between us.
我們今天說得別讓別人知道。
Tell no one of the secret that has passed between us.
不要把我們兩人之間所說的這個(gè)秘密告訴任何人。
通常要說什么秘密之前,都要先說between you and me.
另外還有兩句更酷的,一定要小聲說哦:
This doesn’t leave this room.
This is for your ears only.
