(<span word="say">say</span> <span word="something">something</span>!) 你的舌头被猫给吃了吗?(说点啥吧!) <span word="Its">Its</span> <span word="very">very</span> <span word="common">common</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="say">say</span> (<span word="Has">Has</span> <span word="a">a</span>) <span word="Cat">Cat</span> <span word="Got">Got</span> <span word="Your">Your</span> <span word="Tongue">Tongue</span>? <span word="when">when</span> <span word="youre">youre</span> <span word="asking">asking</span> <span word="somebody">somebody</span> <span word="why">why</span> <span word="they">they</span> <span word="arent">arent</span> <span word="speaking">speaking</span>. <span word="Its">Its</span> <span word="not">not</span> <span word="disrespectful">disrespectful</span>, <span word="and">and</span> <span word="is">is</span> <span word="often">often</span> <span word="very">very</span> <span word="effective">effective</span> <span

word="then">then</span> <span word="feeding">feeding</span> <span word="it">it</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="their">their</span> <span word="cats">cats</span>。 当问某人为什么他不说话时，我们经常说：你的舌头被猫给吃了(吗)?。这并不是无礼，而往往是非常有效的沟通。这个表达源自中世纪国王惩罚骗子的手段，他们把骗子的舌头割断，然后喂猫。 2. <span word="A">A</span> <span word="Copycat">Copycat</span> (<span word="a">a</span> <span word="person">person</span> <span word="who">who</span> <span word="copies">copies</span>/<span word="imitates">imitates</span> <span word="another">another</span>) 盲目模仿者(抄袭/模仿他人的人) <span

word="called">called</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="copycat">copycat</span>。 当孩子们之间有人抄袭别人的时候，他们就会称那个抄袭的人为<span word="copy">copy</span> <span word="cat">cat</span>。成人之间有时也会用这个开玩笑。例如，一个年轻的男孩模仿他哥哥的发型就很可能被叫做<span word="copy">copy</span> <span word="cat">cat</span>(模仿者)。 3. <span word="Its">Its</span> <span word="Raining">Raining</span> <span word="Cats">Cats</span> <span word="and">and</span> <span word="Dogs">Dogs</span> (<span word="its">its</span> <span word="raining">raining</span> <span word="very">very</span> <span

(<span word="coward">coward</span>) 胆怯的猫(懦弱的人) <span word="A">A</span> <span word="fraidy">fraidy</span> <span word="or">or</span> <span word="scaredy">scaredy</span> <span word="cat">cat</span> <span

word="known">known</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="back">back</span> <span word="down">down</span> (<span word="escape">escape</span>, <span word="run">run</span> <span

word="y">y</span>这个音节经常被小孩子使用。成年人也可能用这个来开玩笑。因为，众所周知，猫会害怕、逃避狗，于是孩子们便用这个来取笑他们胆小的同学。 5. <span word="Let">Let</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="Cat">Cat</span> <span word="Out">Out</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="The">The</span> <span word="Bag">Bag</span>?
