"You name it"
“你给起个名字”?
可别以为是让你给人家孩子起名字
苦苦思索人家是不是就要当爸妈了
这可真是误会大了!
来和小编看看是啥意思吧
1."You name it"是什么意思?
You name it 是很实用的口语
意思是:凡是你说得出的(我都能做);应有尽有
例句:
Beer, wine, soft drink, you name it, I've got it.
啤酒,葡萄酒,饮料,凡是你说得出的,我这儿都有。
I've tried every diet going, you name it, I've tried it.
我尝试过各种节食方法,只要你说得出的,我都试过。
2.the name of the game
the name of the game 可不是“游戏的名字”
“英文词典是这样解释的:
the most important part of an activity, or the quality that you most need for that activity
即:一项活动中最重要的部分,或该活动最需要的品质
所以the name of the game = 最重要的部分;最需要的品质
例句:
Hard work is the name of the game if you want to succeed in business.
如果你想在生意上成功,勤奋工作是最重要的。

pet是宠物

家里人都叫他的昵称。
