 今天我们来分享一个常见的单词“buy”,它的本意是 “购买”。但是随着语境的不同,buy的意思也会发生不同。在口语中的“buy it”,除了在购买场景中表示“买它”的同时,也有另外的意思。


如果当别人告诉你一件事情,你说I don't buy it, 这里I don't buy it意思其实是“我才不相信,我不吃那一套!。


试着感受下面这两个句子:


If you talk like that to them, they won't buy it.

如果你和他们那样说话,他们是不会买账的。


如果你和他们那样说话,他们是不会买的。


The girls will buy it.


女孩们是不会买账的。


女孩们是不会买它的。


另外,在美语口语中, buy time这里可不能单纯的理解成“购买时间”。这里,buy还有获得争取的意思,所以“buy time”真正的意思是“争取时间或者拖延时间”。


1. Right now I need to buy some time.

现在我要争取些时间。


2. I'm sure it'll buy you some time.

这肯定能帮你争取到一些时间。


听力测试:

It felt like we were buying ourselves 1 time.

好像我们在给自己买时间。


What else did 2 Grammy buy you guys 3?

奶奶还给你们买过什么?



pron.我们自己
  • We walked home by ourselves.我们独自走回家。
  • We fight only for ourselves!我们只为自己而战!
v.动词do的过去式
  • How many goals did you score in the last game?上一场比赛你们进了几个球?
  • Why did you choose basketball in the first place?你为何首先选择篮球呢?
n.家伙,伙计( guy的名词复数 );(架设天线、支撑帐篷等用的)牵索;[复数]各位;一群男人(或女人)
  • Sorry, guys. I goofed. 对不起,各位。我搞砸了。
  • A few of our guys were thinking about going over the hill. 我们的人中有几个在开小差。 来自《简明英汉词典》
