英語聊天時請避免踩這四個雷！

　　在與他人閑聊時，我們常常會評論他人的外表，可有時說出的話卻違背我們的初衷，造成不必要的誤會，那可真叫啞巴吃黃連，有苦說不出啊。下面，我們就來總結(jié)一些關(guān)于他人外表不該說的話吧!

　　Don't say: "You look tired."

　　Why: It implies she doesn't look good。

　　Instead say: "Is everything OK?" We often blurt the"tired" comment when we get the sense that the other person feels out of sorts. So just ask.

　　不要說"You look tired."(你看上去很累。)

　　這句話暗示了她看上去狀況不佳。

　　我們可以說"Is everything OK?"(你一切還好嗎?)我們會脫口而出"tired"這個詞是因?yàn)楦杏X到對方有些消沉，所以直接問原因吧。

　　Don't say: "Wow, you've lost a ton of weight!"

　　Why: To a newly trim person, it might give the impression that she used to look unattractive。

　　Instead say: "You look fantastic." And leave it at that.If you're curious about how she got so svelte, add, "What's your secret?"

　　不要說"Wow, you've lost a ton of weight!"(哇塞，你減掉了N多斤啊!)

　　對一個剛恢復(fù)苗條的人來說，這句話給她的感覺是自己從前看上去很糟糕。想學(xué)習(xí)更多英語知識，請關(guān)注口袋英語aikoudaiyy

　　我們可以說"You look fantastic."(你看上去真棒。)，并且就此打住。如果你想知道她是如何變苗條的，那就加上一句"What's your secret?"(有啥秘訣呀?)

　　Don't say: "You look good for your age."

　　Why: Anything with a caveat like this is rude. It's saying,"You look great―compared with other old people. It's amazing you have all your own teeth."

　　Instead say: "You look great."

　　不要說"You look good for your age."(以你的年紀(jì)來說，你看上不錯啊。)

　　任何像這樣帶有告誡意味的話語都是粗魯?shù)摹＿@就是在說：“跟其他老家伙比起來，你看上去不錯。你那口牙竟然一顆沒掉，太令人驚訝了。”

　　我們應(yīng)該直接說"You look great."(你看上去很棒。)

　　Don't say: "I could never wear that."

　　Why: It can be misunderstood as a criticism. ("I could never wear that because it's so ugly.")

　　Instead say: "You look so good in skinny jeans." If you slip, say something like "I could never wear that...because I wasn't blessed with your long legs."

　　不要說"I could never wear that."(我可不會穿那樣的衣服。)

　　這話可以被誤解為批評：“那衣服太丑了，我才不要穿。”

　　我們應(yīng)該說"You look so good in skinny jeans."(你穿緊身牛仔褲很漂亮。)假如你不小心說漏了嘴，那就這么圓回來"I could never wear that...because I wasn't blessed with your long legs."(我是穿不了那褲子……因?yàn)槲覜]你那樣修長的腿哎。)
