核心句型:
Follow the rules and you won't get chewed out.
遵守規(guī)定你就不會挨批。
get chewed out直譯過來就是:“被嚼碎了”,這個短語的正確意思是:“被訓(xùn)斥,挨批”。因此,當(dāng)美國人說"Follow the rules and you won't get chewed out."時,他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"If you follow the rules, you won't be criticized."、"Follow the rules and nobody will find faults with you.".
