祝你好運!

Keep your fingers crossed.直譯過來就是：“使你的手指保持交叉的狀態(tài)”，因為手指交叉會形成X形，與十字架的形狀特別相像。美國人信奉基督教，十字架是基督教耶穌救世的象征，他們認為十字架可以躲避厄運、帶來好運。所以這個短語的正確意思也就是：“祝你好運”。因此，當美國人說"Keep your fingers crossed."時，他/她要表達的意思就是:"Good luck to you."、"I wish you knocked on wood."、"Break a leg!"。

情景對白：Terry: Oh my god. Ben, I'm going to negotiate with that ticklish client again.

泰瑞：噢，天哪!本，我又要去跟那個難對付的客戶談判了。

Benjamin: Keep your fingers crossed, my friend.

本杰明：祝你好運，朋友!

③I'll negotiate with a foreigner this Wednesday.

④I have to persuade the client to accept our offer.

We should have the job finished by Thursday - knock on wood!

我們應(yīng)該在星期四前完成這工作，但愿好運。
