Donny: 呃....I think you better say "Honey, I'm really sorry. How can I make up to you?"
Jimmy: 呵呵,我开玩笑的。
Donny: Oh, speaking of the word "chill", you can also say "take a chill
pill". It's another way of saying "calm down".
Jimmy: Take a chill pill. Pill, p-i-l-l, pill是“药丸”的意思,所以, take a chill pill字面意思就是“吃个冷静药丸”,就是叫人别激动,别慌。
Donny: You got it. So what are you going to do for tonight's date?
Jimmy: 还能怎么办,抓紧这两小时,赶紧去买礼物呗! 走啦!
Donny: Before you go, tell me what you've learned today!
Jimmy: 今天学了让人别慌的三种说法。第一,Don't have a cow; 第二,Chill out; 第三:Take a chill pill.

cow is an interesting word----"-she is a cow" means she is a shrew---of course a rude and impolite word!!I hope boys will never use them. "have a cow" means being very angry,in Chinese we say发飙。-----yeah,,funny作者: 陈秀玲 时间: 2011-6-28 19:36

Don't have a cow!
Why ?it seems that those Europeans like the cows so much!In French,there are also many expressions about the cows (les vaches)...why...I can't get it !作者: 珊裳旖旎 时间: 2011-7-13 12:26
