轻松日记商务职场篇 第55期:千万别说漏了嘴

推荐人: 来源: 阅读: 2.6W 次

核心句型:
Don't spill the beans.
别说漏了嘴。
Don't spill the beans字面意思是:“不要把豆子给揪出来了”,这个习语起源于古希腊,人们通过往罐子里放豆子的方式来选举,不要将豆子撒出来,以免泄露选举结果。所以这个习语的意思是:“泄露秘密,说漏嘴”。因此,当美国人说"Don't spill the beans."时,他/她要表达的意思就是:"Don't give away the secret."、"Don't let the cat out of the bag."。
情景对白:

雪莉:我说的可全都是秘密,从没对别人说过,记住,千万别说漏了嘴。
