高中英语之巧记颜色俚语color idioms(课件)

（3）yellow 黄色
黄色是太阳公公的本色，它饱含智慧与生命力，让人显得年轻有朝气，它被认为是知识和光明的象征。黄色在英语和汉语中的引申含义差别比较大。在英语中，yellow可以表示“胆小、卑怯、卑鄙”的意思，例如： a yellow dog 可鄙的人He is too yellow to stand up and fight. 他太软弱，不敢起来斗争。汉语中黄色一词有时象征低级趣味、色情庸俗的意思，如黄色电影、黄色书刊等。这些名称中的“黄”与英语中的“yellow”无关。能够表示汉语中这些意思的词汇应该是：pornographic、vulgar等。然而，英语中另一个颜色词blue却常用来表示汉语中这类意思，如blue jokes（下流的玩笑）， blue films（黄色电影）等。
Yellow is often associated with happiness, optimism, and cowardice. Here are some common yellow idioms:Yellow-belly: coward胆小鬼Example: He was a yellow-bellied cowboy. He always ran away from a fight.Belly means stomach. If your belly is yellow, you are not brave. This idiom isn’t used as much nowadays as it was in the past.
卑鄙无耻的小人
brown(棕色）
brown sugar
红糖
brown nose
献殷勤，拍马屁
颜色的具体含义
红色是一种热烈的颜色，它象征着鲜血、烈火、生命和爱情。红色的热情让人有一种勇敢的冲劲，它能鼓舞人的情绪。在我国，红色是火，是吉庆、热情的象征，但在英语国家的人眼中红色则意味着流血、危险或暴力。同时在英语和汉语中，红色有时可以完全对应，有时却大相径庭。红旗 red flag 红糖 brown sugar 红茶 black tea 红榜 honour roll 红豆 love pea 红运 good luck

口译课件4 Idioms

In both cases, we might as well borrow them directly from the target language so as to retain their vividness and achieve equivalence in effect. For example: Where there’s a will, there’s a way.有志者事竟成。 Strike while the iron is hot.趁热打铁。 Make hay while the sun is out. All good thinቤተ መጻሕፍቲ ባይዱs must come to an end.天下没有不散的筵席。 A fall into the pit, a gain in your wit.吃一堑，长一智。
each other. This can be seen in two well-known phrases, (1) give up the ghost and (2) spill the beans. The meanings are (1) to die and (2) to reveal something; make something known. These meanings are quite different from the literal meanings of the words in the phrases. The man gave up the ghost=the man died. He spilt the beans (=revealed the secret) over my plans to find a new job. But practice has led us to believe that we can present an adequate rendition of an idiom (either C-E or E-C) provided we manage to get an accurate comprehension of the meaning or implication and, on this basis, put across the idea or meaning properly in the light of the context.

Idioms谚语PPT

• He knew that to ask for higher pay would displease his boss, but anyway he decided to take the bull by the horns. • 他明知道要求提高工资会使老板感到不高兴，但无论如何，他决定冒一次险。

Bull,calf,cattle,cow,ox • take the bull by the horns 出勇敢地克服困难，挺身而
• 牛给人的印象恐怕还算是一种比较驯各的牲畜，但一旦使起性子来，它却变得凶猛异常，再加上它那强壮的身躯，对人是一种不小的威胁。在斗牛时，和被惹火了的牛去比试，有不少斗牛勇士还为之受伤丧命呢！可见take the bull by the horns（抓住牛角）是要有相当的胆量和冒险精神的。因而这个成语所表达的就是不畏艰险，敢于面对困难的精神和行为：
bull,calf,cattle,cow,ox • to cast the pearls before swine对牛弹琴 • 这个成语源自《新约。马太福音》第7章：“Give not that which is holy unto the dogs,neither cast ye your pearls before swine,lest they trample them under their feet,and turn again and rend you”.由于to cast pearls efore swine,比喻确切，在后世不断引用中而成为一个国际性成语，常用来表示to offer sth valuable or beautiful to those who can't appreciate it;to give what is precious to those who are unable to understand its value等意思，含有轻蔑嘲笑色彩。按其字面意义，这个成语与汉语成语“明珠按投”相似，但是寓意不同，基本上不对应；按一比喻意义，它相当于“对牛弹琴”，“向驴说经”“一番好意给狗吃”“狗咬吕洞宾，不识好人心”等。
