“你说的没错！”-英语点津
<p>“<span word="Say">Say</span>”在英语中是十分常用的单词，我们几乎每天都离不开它，但它与汉语中“说”的意思不完全一致，在许多情况下有其习惯的用法。例如这一段对话：</p><p>-<span word="The">The</span> <span word="new">new</span> <span word="hat">hat</span> <span word="looks">looks</span> <span word="so">so</span> <span word="funny">funny</span>!</p><p>-<span word="I">I</span>'<span word="ll">ll</span> <span word="say">say</span>!</p><p>大家一定会觉得如果照字面意思去理解，这句话就说不通了。实际上，“<span word="I">I</span>'<span word="ll">ll</span> <span word="say">say</span>!”表示同意对方的话，可以表示赞同对方的话的表达方式还有不少，例如“<span word="You">You</span> <span word="said">said</span> <span word="it">it</span>.”或“<span word="You">You</span> <span word="can">can</span> <span word="say">say</span> <span word="that">that</span> <span word="again">again</span>.”，当然这与“叫对方再说一遍”“<span word="Say">Say</span>”的含义是很丰富的，不仅仅表示一般的“说”。“<span word="say">say</span> <span word="one">one</span>’<span word="s">s</span> <span word="prayer">prayer</span>”是“祈祷”；“<span word="say">say</span> <span word="one">one</span>'<span word="s">s</span> <span word="lesson">lesson</span>”是“背课文”；“<span word="What">What</span> <span word="does">does</span> <span word="the">the</span> <span word="slogan">slogan</span> <span word="say">say</span>?”的意思为“标语是怎么说的？”；“<span word="My">My</span> <span word="watch">watch</span> <span word="says">says</span> <span word="five">five</span> <span word="o">o</span>'<span word="clock">clock</span>.”指“我的表是五点钟。”；“<span word="What">What</span> <span word="do">do</span> <span word="you">you</span> <span word="say">say</span> <span word="to">to</span> <span word="a">a</span> <span word="cup">cup</span> <span word="of">of</span> <span word="coffee">coffee</span>?”则询问“来杯咖啡如何？”；而“<span word="I">I</span> <span word="can">can</span>’<span word="t">t</span> <span word="say">say</span>.”则常常表示“我不知道。/不好说。”“<span word="say">say</span> <span word="much">much</span> <span word="for">for</span>……”的意思是“认为什么非常好”，例如“<span word="I">I</span> <span word="can">can</span>’<span word="t">t</span> <span word="say">say</span> <span word="much">much</span> <span word="for">for</span> <span word="his">his</span> <span word="argument">argument</span>.”</p>
