英語(yǔ)口語(yǔ)：甜言蜜語(yǔ)不可信 小心好話“傷人”

花時(shí)

贊美的話人人都愛(ài)聽,。不過(guò)并不是所有的夸贊都出于真心,。有些恭維的話過(guò)于夸張,，那就要小心背后的圈套了哦。

1. Flattery

最直接地表示“恭維,、奉承”,。

例：I take his compliments as a form of flattery; they didn’t sound very sincere.

我覺(jué)得他的贊美是一種恭維，有點(diǎn)兒不真誠(chéng),。

2. (With) tongue in cheek

半開玩笑地,；說(shuō)著玩兒地；言不由衷地,，虛情假意地

例：Don't be fooled by John's compliments. He was saying all that with tongue in cheek.

別讓約翰的恭維話給糊弄住,，那些話可當(dāng)不得真。

3. Sweet talk

字面意思“甜蜜的話”,，不過(guò)甜言蜜語(yǔ)背后其實(shí)是有目的的,，為了讓人答應(yīng)某事。這個(gè)短語(yǔ)既可以作為名詞,，也可以作動(dòng)詞使用,。

例：A "virtual girlfriend" needs to be coddled with sweet talk and pampered with gifts, but you'll never see her in the flesh.

虛擬女友也需要用甜言蜜語(yǔ)和禮物去寵愛(ài)，盡管你永遠(yuǎn)不能親身見到她,。

4. Sweet nothing(s)

甜蜜的卻沒(méi)有什么實(shí)質(zhì)性內(nèi)容的話,，sweet nothing其實(shí)也是一種sweet talk。

例：Jack was whispering sweet nothings in Joan's ear when they were dancing.

當(dāng)他們跳舞時(shí),，杰克輕聲在瓊的耳邊說(shuō)著甜言蜜語(yǔ),。

5. Snow job

這個(gè)短語(yǔ)的意思可不是跟雪有關(guān)的工作，而是指不太誠(chéng)實(shí)的話,。為了達(dá)到目的而撒一些迷惑性的謊,，通常是好話,。

例：You can generally tell when a student is trying to do a snow job.

當(dāng)一個(gè)學(xué)生試圖說(shuō)謊時(shí)其實(shí)是很容易分辨出來(lái)的。（普特英語(yǔ)）
