跟艾米莉一起學(xué)口語 第681期:心情不好別再用unhappy了

I get upset.

我很生氣。

That's so offensive.

真是令人生氣。

offensive是“進(jìn)攻的”, “進(jìn)攻性的”意思，和defensive“防御的”, “防備的”是一對反義詞。但是，這里的offensive是“冒犯的”，“無禮的”，“侮辱的”意思。offensiv作“進(jìn)攻的”意思講時(shí)，只在句中修飾名詞?！八孟裢τ羞M(jìn)攻性的”，這句話用英文來說就是"She really seemed like an offensive girl". 但是，"She really seemed to be offensive"的意思卻是“她好像很無禮”

That person is so rude.

那個(gè)人太粗魯了。

How rude can you be?

你怎么如此無禮？

That really makes me mad/angry/upset.

那簡直要讓我發(fā)瘋。
