有哪些高级的英语表达技巧,让人一听就感觉很地道英语口语表达

还请列举一些具体的句式
太多了,随便举几个例子吧。补充下:以下都是美国人跟我讲的,而且很多都是美式用法。1 电脑游戏不叫computer game,地道的说法是video game(补充:One is on the computer and the other is on the tv, but in spoken english most call both video games.刚问完美国人)2 酒可以用booze来表示,不过是指喝的酒比较多的情况下。比如:I drank way too much booze last night.3
钱不一定用dollar可以用buck来表示Do u have a few bucks u can loan me.4 形容好听的音乐用groovy music5晒太阳用catch some rays比bask更地道6 墨镜可以用shadesThose are really cool shades u r wearing!7 打篮球可以不用play basketball,用shoot hoops会更好8擅长可以用proShe is really a pro at basketball.9喧闹可以不用noise 用racketSmall kids can really make a lot of racket.10 形容抽烟,吸毒很嗨的状态用stoned11对方说话没听清很少用pardon 而要说Sorry,What did u say?12 被什么打鸡血了可以说pumped(up)I'm really pumped for the holiday break.13 糟糕可以用suck替代terribleThe whole trip sucked.14 失败可以用bust替代failureIt was a total bust.15 solid 这个词很活 形容连续的几天可以用solid days It's been raining for seven solid days.16 朋友可以用pal来代替friend(评论区有人指正:pal 有点发小、哥们儿的意思,一般是同性之间称呼。)17 catch u later可以替代see u later先写这些,想到继续补充。
1. 最重要的就是——不要用错词!!!!!当你用 a bar of cigarettes 来表示一条烟的时候,剩下的再怎么说都是逗逼了。(一条烟是 a carton of cigarettes)搭配!搭配很重要!!!2. 扩大词汇量《中式英语之鉴》里作者明确说了,一直用动词+副词的方式是很 low 的,英语里词汇那么多,十有八九有特定动词可以表示某个普通含义动词+副词walk unsteadily 可以用 totter 代替;cry loudily 可以用 wail 代替等等。一直用各种动词+副词是文化水平不高的表现除了别老用副词之外,各种同义词的替换也很重要。以《银河系漫游指南》小说的开头为例Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded sun作者一连用了三个形容词 uncharted, unfashionable 和 unregarded 来表示偏僻的,另外还有个名词 backwaters3. 用好介词最经典的例子,林肯所说的“民有、民治、民享”,如果翻回英文,大部分人恐怕都会翻译 owned, governed and shared by people. 但是英文原文用的是 of the people by the people for the people,根本就没用动词。简洁有力4. 名词化。名词化是非常重要的,英文中一个句子只能有一个谓语动词,所以每一个动词的使用都必须小心谨慎,为了让句子简洁,把动词转换为名词是十分重要的。中国越来越多地参与地区性事务说明中国是个负责任的国家 上句如果用从句的话就累赘了 That China is increasingly participating in regional affairs shows that it is a responsible country.前面的从句改成名词就好多了 China's increasing regional involvement shows .....5.原则上就这些。但是真要应用起来,还需要大量的阅读和背诵为基础才能好好运用6. 补充一下口语的一条——千万不要把能拼读的缩写词一个字母一个字母地读!联合国教科文组织 UNESCO 不要读作 "U-N-E-S-C-O",要当作一个完整的单词读作/ju:'n?sk??/==============================================================号补充~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~沉寂了一段时间之后,这两天这个回答突然又多了好几个赞。所以再补充几点吧关于3用好介词的。再给一个很有典型意义的例子他正绝食抗议,声称对他犯有谋杀罪的判决不公正如果让中国人来翻译,首先的反应差不多是这样的句子: He is on hunger strike claiming his conviction for murder is unjust(我自己翻译的句子)这样的翻译其实已经不错了,不过还可以做到更好He is on hunger strike in protest at his wrongful conviction for murder(某部英英字典给的例句。每次读到这种多个介词连用的句子都特别爽快……)7.语序/逻辑的调整(这个不像上面是词层面的,本条是句子层面的。再往上段落、修辞层面的就心有余而力不足了)中文的特点是经常用语言的内容表达逻辑性,而不是用表示逻辑关系的关联词来表达。例如这道题目的问题 “有哪些高级的英语表达技巧,让人一听就很地道?”,完整的表达应该是 “有哪些英语表达技巧很高级,高级到让人一听就很地道?”(不知道这个例子够不够好……),这个题目翻译成英文,就算不用 so ... that ... 这样的句式,最起码也要加个 and 表达句子之间的关联(看到 and 不要觉得只能翻译成和)这就造成一个问题,那就是中文的句子顺序比较固定,在不使用连接词的情况下,必须遵守先因后果,先时间再事件等顺序,否则逻辑关系就表达不出来(当然你要是用了关联词,顺序就比较自由了)。但是写英文的时候,就不能总是遵循这样的顺序(不是不可以遵循,也不是说不遵循这个顺序就一定特别地道,只是说大家写文章要有意识的调整语序,让句子读起来更灵活,而不是始终差不多)比方说“你定罪后会被判处五年”(请大家试试自己翻译这个句子,“定罪”是 convict sb 或 sb is convicted,判五年是 five years' imprisonment,不需要纠结具体的词,重点是句式)==============================================================学渣(最普通的版本): When you are convicted, you will face five years' imprisonment. (如果是写作,也许还有人能够注意到可以把 when 从句放到句尾,但是如果是口语,恐怕很少有人能够做到,因为先因后果,先时间后事件的逻辑关系已经深深印入我们的语言习惯中。)学霸(准确来说是简洁一点,不过能把英文写简洁,对于很多人来说就已经算是学霸了):When convicted, you will face five years' imprisonment学酥(表面上看起来很高端,但是实际上是错误的版本):After being convicted, five years' imprisonment is inevitable(提示一下,是语法错误,而不是翻译地不精确之类的问题。请大家努力找哦~~~)学神(这个句子当然也不至于到学神的地步,只是说以中国人的标准而言算是一个好句子):you will face five years' imprisonment on conviction当然,这个例子也是介词用法的一个例子。但是更重要的是这个句子的顺序是先果后因,先事件后时间8. 主从句关系(这个是小问题)Busy as my father is, he never seems in a hurry这样的一个句子,其实问题不是特别大。不过,习惯上,主句在句子中比较重要,因此应该把代词所代替的主语分配给主句,从句不太重要,可以用代词所以最好把 my father 和 he 的顺序换一下Busy as he is, my father never seems in a hurry(大家读英文的时候可以注意一下,有良好写作风格的作者,是不会把代词所指代的名词放在句首的从句中,而是会放在主句中)其实这个问题和 7 中的中文语言习惯也有关系,因为中文中,就算先说的句子不重要,按照逻辑顺序,也会先把关键信息放到先说的句子中,后说的句子,哪怕更重要,也只会放置代词。但是英语不一样。主从句之间是有重要性区别的,这个区别同时也会反映到遣词造句上
首先,你至少要保证用词正确哦。但是这可没有大多数人想象的那么容易,比如:- a group of bees 一群蜜蜂- break the myth 打破神话看起来没有问题哈,可是我告诉你这些用法都!是!错!的!这是受到中文思维影响的错误的英文用法,从“一群”想到“a group of”,从“打破神话”想到“break”。这种自作主张就是overgeneralisation,外国人看了要笑掉大牙哦。想要“地道”的用英文,首先记单词的时候就要知道正确的搭配(collocations)是什么,常用的搭配是什么。针对这个问题,请见我的另一个回答:下面分享一些技巧:1,用好动词。和中文相比,英语的动词非常丰富。每一个地道的句子,核心往往是一个准确无比的动词,简单有力,比如。(初级版)The dog bit the boy.(地道版)The dog tore through the boy's flesh.另外,减少程度副词的使用,比如“really”,“very”,"extremely"等等,这背后的核心还是动词的使用。比如:She was very scared,写成She was terrified更加好些。 “So avoid using the word ‘very’ because it’s lazy. A man is not very tired, he is exhausted. Don’t use very sad, use morose. Language was invented for one reason, boys - to woo women - and, in that endeavor, laziness will not do. It also won’t do in your essays.”
- N.H.Kleinbaum比如:really bad - terriblevery dirty - filthyreally tired - exhaustedvery happy -
thrilledShe's not very smart - She' ignorant.一些简单的例子,可以参考下表:一些描述感情的单词总结:一些同义词总结,写作的时候也可以借鉴哦:Amazing — incredible, unbelievable, improbable, fabulous, wonderful, fantastic, astonishing, astounding,

construction)。这里所说的Expletive construction包括:it was, it is,
it takes, here is, there is, there will be等等。it,there,here一般指代句子中之后出现的主语,频繁使用让人觉得句子没有重点,比如:There are some students who seem to have books。句子的重点是some students,而不是there be,之后的who也是不必要的词。改成Some students seem to have books简洁明了。中学英语为了让学生学习从句,有很多类似的造句,实际上地道的英语很少这样说。一些例子:It's fun to sing. 改成: Singing is fun.Here are some things to have. 改成: Some things to have are:There is nothing better
than blogging. 改成: Nothing's better than blogging.There are many people who write. 改成:Many people write.当然,不是说完全不用上面的结构。某些需要指代的情况下,是可以用的:I love reading. It's great. 这里It指代之前的句子,反而句子更加简练。3,多用比喻(similes)。这些比喻多使用as 或者like。(初级版)She has a smooth voice。(高级版)Her voice was as smooth as butter。(初级版)He was moving through the room clumsily。(高级版)He was moving through the room like an enormous trained mole collecting the empty cans.The world is bitter. - The world is bitter as a tear.一些非常好的比喻句总结在下面的链接里,大家可以借鉴:4,为了彰显B格,请善用婉语euphemism。本来你只是要写:He didn't know he was to die that day.如果你写成:He didn't know that that day was his last.感觉是不是厉害好多?一些关于euphemism的总结:5,用好倒装句。(初级版)He didn't know he was about to die.(高级版)Little did he know that he was about to die.(初级版)You can solve the problem only this way.(高级版)Only in this way can you solve the problem. 6,巧用介词。由于汉语习惯,中国人往往回避英语介词的使用,因此很多时候写出来的句子汉语味比较重。When she arrives, she will pay the money.Upon arrival, she will pay the money.错:He looked at me and felt surprised.对:He looked at in surprise.错:We were informed by those who wore red uniforms.对:We were informed by those in red uniforms.Without health, happiness is impossible.先这么多,想到再补充。----------------------------------学英语,请关注我的微信号:simon_learn。我会定期分享赏析英文原文,内容从《纽约时报》等严肃新闻到展示各种英美文化的文章应有尽有,帮助你快速提升英语。扫一扫下面的二维码也可关注。
