count one's chicken字面意思是“數(shù)某人的雞“,但實際上它跟雞沒有任何關系,可以意為“過于樂觀;指望得過早”,一般多用否定式。

【例句】
I don't want to count my chickens before they are hatched.
我不想指望得過早。

It is not good to start counting your chickens when you do not even have the cash to start your own venture.
當你連自己創(chuàng)業(yè)的錢都沒有時,就開始過于樂觀是不好的。
