对话精讲

核心短语】(as) right as a trivet

解词释义】这个隐喻来自于三脚架(trivet)的形状,三脚架放在火上支撑水壶等炊具非常稳当。此语最早出现于Dickens的《匹克威客外传》中宝步索耶的话:“right as a trivet.”(好得很。)此语的意思即为:身体十分健康,事情十分顺利等。

支持范例1】We'll have your ankle and you as right as a trivet.

我们会让你的踝部和身体恢复健康。

支持范例2】Joan was feverish 1 last night, but she is as right as a trivet his morning.

琼昨晚发烧,但是今早她完全好了。



adj.发烧的,狂热的,兴奋的
  • He is too feverish to rest.他兴奋得安静不下来。
  • They worked with feverish haste to finish the job.为了完成此事他们以狂热的速度工作着。
