The surgeon replied,"What word was that?"
"I heard you say,'Oops!'" the patient answered.
Notes:
1. A patient said,"Doc,during my operation I heard you use a four—letter word that scared me very much."
一個病人說:“醫(yī)生,在敵手術(shù)的時候,我聽到你說了一個4 個字母的詞,讓我非常害怕。”
"use"和它的中文意思一樣可以用在很多地方,如:用洗手間(委婉用法)、用車、利用人、用字(說或?qū)?、用…語言等,而在這里表示“用某個詞去表達某種意思”。
2. The surgeon replied,"What word was that?"
外科醫(yī)生問:“是什么詞?”
surgeon [?s?:d??n] n.外科醫(yī)生
3. "I heard you say,'Oops!'" the patient answered.
病人回答:“我聽到你說‘糟糕!’”
"oops"是一個感嘆詞,當(dāng)手上的東西掉落、碰到人,或是為正在做的事不順利而感到懊惱時,都可以用這個詞,和我們所說的“哎喲;糟糕”相似。
oops [?ps] interj.哎呦(表示驚訝、沮喪、輕度道歉等)
