时光一逝永不回,往事只能回味,每个人的心底都藏着很多陈年往事,回忆起来,也都成了过眼云烟,没有必要再去纠结。
那么这个过眼云烟用英语该怎么说?
在翻译这个词时,可不要用eye, cloud, smog哦!正确的说法是:water under the bridge~
这样说非常形象、好理解,如桥下流过的水,一去不复返。来看一下权威的解释吧:
It is used to say that something happened in the past and is no longer important or worth arguing about.
表示对于过去已经发生的事情,没有必要或者不值得再争论了。
我们一起来看两个例句:
We did have our disagreements but thats water under the bridge now.
我们确实有过分歧,但对我来说那已经是过眼云烟了。
Its water under the bridge now. We broke up years ago and married different people.
早就过去了,我们早已经分手另结新欢了。
在美剧《摩登家庭》中,Jay偶然遇见了前女友,于是有了下面的对话:
Dottie: Jay! Its so nice to see you!
Jay: Is it? Oh, why wouldnt it be?
Dottie: That was a long time ago. Water under the bridge. Were good.
Jay: Oh, thats great.
-杰,见到你可真开心。
-是吗?当然开心了。
-都是陈年旧事,过眼云烟了。
-哦,那就好。
如果想表达过去的就让他过去吧,木已成舟,我们可以用这个表达:whats done is done.
先来看一个例句:
Im really disappointed in what you did, but whats done is done—lets just forget about it now.
我对你所做的事情非常失望,但是木已成舟,我们暂时先别提这事了。
在美剧《马男波杰克》中,马男和电影导演闹翻了,于是他和旺达有了这段对话:
Wanda: Why did you have to antagonize him?
Bojack: I wasnt trying to antagonize him.
Wanda: Well, whats done is done.
Bojack: Of course youre happy about it. You didnt want me to go to New York in the first place.
-你为什么要跟他唱反调。
-我没有跟他唱反调。
-木已成舟。
-你当然高兴了,一开始你就不想让我去纽约。
