看美剧学英语习语:Kick one's ass
本帖最后由 Fannie 于 2020-9-15 08:14 编辑Kick one's ass: 1.If someone kicks your ass, they attack you or punish you. 2.If someone kicks your ass, they defeat you easily in a competition. Note: 'Ass' and 'butt' are informal American words for 'bottom'. As in Dad would have kicked my ass for allowing you to sleep here.
中文释义:Kick one's ass 这个短语直译就是“踢某人屁股”的意思,延伸意思是“惩罚、击败某人”。例句:And then I'm gonna kick your ass in that game.(我要在那个游戏中打败你。)在这里引申另一个相近短语:Kiss one's ass ,它的实际意思是:拍某人马屁;奉承某人,所以kiss her ass 就是平日我们说的“献殷勤”。温馨提示:kick ass 这个短语还有“酷毙了,了不起,很厉害”的意思。
