輕松日記商務(wù)職場篇 第19期:想要公平競爭
Ijust want them to give you a fair shake.
我只希望他們能一視同仁。
give somebody a f air shake 直譯過來就是“給某人一個公平的搖晃”，這個短語的真正意思是：“對……一視同仁”。因此當(dāng)美國人說:"I just want them to give you a fairshake."時，他要表達的意思就是："I just want them totreat everyone equally."、"I just wish you weretreated on equal terms with others."。
