習(xí)語(yǔ)：a hen-pecked husband

知識(shí)點(diǎn)津：hen-pecked表示“受老婆虐待或怕老婆的人”，所以a hen-pecked husband指的是“怕老婆的人”，和中文的“妻管嚴(yán)”類似。

支持范例：

He is a hen-pecked husband and his wife wears the trousers on all the matters.

他是個(gè)“妻管嚴(yán)”，家里事無(wú)巨細(xì)全由老婆說(shuō)了算。

He never does anything without asking his wife first—he's a completely hen-pecked husband.

他做任何事都要首先請(qǐng)示他老婆—他是個(gè)十足的“妻管嚴(yán)”。

Yes, everyone knows he is a hen-pecked husband.

對(duì)呀，大家都知道他家有母老虎。

迷你對(duì)話：

A :Does your wife work?

你的妻子工作嗎?

B :Yes, she does. She works at home.

是的，她在家工作。

A :Oh, I understand. She cooks, cleans and takes care of children. Is that right?

哦，我明白了。他做飯，打掃屋子，看孩子，對(duì)嗎?

B :Oh, no. Most of the time I do these things. She is a writer.

哦，不。大多數(shù)時(shí)間是我干這些活。她是個(gè)作家。

A :You are reallya hen-pecked husband.

你可真是個(gè)“妻管嚴(yán)”呀。

詞海拾貝：

take care of：照顧，照料

I ached to be of an age to take care of myself.

我巴望能到自食其力的年齡。

I' ll take care of the affairs of office.

我來(lái)處理辦公室的日常事務(wù)。
