  • 如鱼离水英文谚语

    1.英语谚语中的fish

    英语口语里,fish还常常被用来指“人”,类似于汉语里的“家伙、东西”等。如:a poor fish(可怜虫),a big fish(大亨),a cool fish(无耻之徒),a strange fish(奇人、怪人),a loose fish(放荡鬼)等。但必须注意的是,fish用来指人时形象虽然鲜明,但往往含有贬义。

    由fish构成的习语也非常生动有趣。如:fish in the air本意为“空中钓鱼”,喻指“方法(向)不对而达不到目的”,相当于汉语中的成语“缘木求鱼”。又如:like a fish out of water喻指“如鱼离水、感到生疏”,feel the fishes喻指“葬身鱼腹;晕船”。

    含fish的一些谚语更加赋有哲理性。如:

    1.Never offer to teach fish to swim.不要班门弄斧。(原意为:决不要教鱼游泳。)

    2.The best fish smell bad when they are three days old.久居别家招人嫌。(原意为:鱼过三天就要臭。)

    3.He who would catch fish must not mind getting wet.不入虎穴,焉得虎子。(原意为:捉鱼不要怕鞋湿。)
