影視英語口語:讓世界更美好

【劇情簡介】Ariel和王子出去兜風，兩人到處晃悠，一路跟蹤的老螃蟹、胖魚魚和海鷗快急死了，因爲王子完全還沒有愛上Ariel的跡象。老螃蟹於是大張旗鼓開始唱情歌爲兩人營造氣氛。

【電影片段臺詞】
- Wow. Somebody should find that poor animal and put it out of its misery.

1. put it out of its misery 早日解脫，早登極樂
這算是“殺死”的一種委婉說法吧，王子受不了海鷗那嘶啞的歌聲於是就來了這麼一句~但是平時一些老了的寵物送去安樂死的時候，我們會說：put down the animal，put down就意爲“人道殺死”。
2. you're dying to try 你灰常想試試
be dying to do sth.意爲非常想做某事，如：I'm dying to watch this film! 我超想看這部電影！
3. It don't take a word 無需言語就能說明
It takes sth. to do sth.意爲“必須怎樣才能做某事”，如：It takes great effort to finish this task. 要完成這項任務，必須全力以赴。
4. I feel really bad not knowing your name. 真不好意思，我還不知道你的名字呢
feel bad是口語中常用的表達“心情不好”的說法，這裏的語氣沒有那麼重，只是用來表達一種禮貌的歉意
