说此话之人身份通常为上级，且相处较久。

3.It's bullshit! (胡说八道!屁话!)

这句话用途太广泛啦!

4.Damn it! (太可恶!)

此句往往从某个孤胆英雄的嘴中冒出，发音要轻，然口气要重!

此句已接近经典!估计没几个人不会吧。



6.Come on!此句因拥有太多含义，所以就不提供中文注释了。

这句话可用的场合实在太多了，大家自己琢磨着用吧。

7.Ditto! (我也是!)

这个说法并不是常用语，不过看过《人鬼情未了》一片的人应该都知道吧。

男主角从来不说 I love you，总是以“ditto"回应。

差了那么一点点味道和情调。

8.How can I forget such a beautiful girl/sexy boy?
