在家里可以go to bed 在上课时会doze off 最普通的睡觉即sleep, 高级点的有slumber 当然你也可以fall asleep, take a nap. 至于kick the pillow我也不清楚，看高手解答了。 英文有很多变化，需要积累。 最后修改于 2008-2-2 18:38:09
fall asleep go to bed go to sleep take a nap doze off Kick the Pillow 9 thumbs up 1: to warn a person about something after it is far too late for them to do anything about it 2: to attempt (generally poorly and without success) to cover up something (often done at the time of the commission of the act which is to be covered up or immediately after) Etymology: "Kick the Pillow" is derived from a practice of Feudal Japan. It was considered dishonorable to kill a sleeping enemy, so a warrior would kick his enemy's pillow in order to wake him just before chopping off his head. This allowed the warrior to maintain his honor (at least by the literal letter of the rules) while preserving the advantage of taking an enemy completely unawares. 1: (Historical) The Japanese sent a telegram to their embassy in Washington D.C warning of their impending attack on Pearl Harbor, which was intended to be delivered to the US Government just minutes before their attack began. Unfortunately the ambassador was too slow in decrypting the message, and the US had already decalred war on Japan before he finished, so it was never delivered. 2: "I'm back. Gotta love taking long lunch breaks." "Yeah, well the boss wants to see you in his office. Last week I heard him saying he was thinking about firing you for taking extended lunch breaks." "Oh, fantastic! Thanks for kicking the pillow, jerk!" 3: "Surprise! My mother is moving in with us! She just pulled into the driveway." "Thanks for kicking the pillow, honey." (Guess who's not getting laid until she moves out?) 4: "You slept with her?!" "Well... I did say I wanted to talk about seeing other people." "Oh yeah, good job kicking the pillow." turn in也有睡觉的意思 特定的场合可能可以吧，语言应该当作一直文化，一直交流的方式来学，大家听得懂，多用，也就有了！！ 只听说过hit the pillow可以是睡觉。。。应该不行吧用kick 貌似有一个类似的说法是： hit the sack go to bed doze off sleep slumber fall asleep, take a nap 至于kick the pillow我想应该不行 表睡觉意思的词组有： to go to bed to go to sleep hit the sack fall asleep 不过没有听说过你的那种表达法。 |
