Some love radishes and some love cabbages? 你是这么翻译的吗? 恐怕这句直译出来就很Chenglish了,那我们到底该怎么表达呢?让我们听听Joy and Chris是怎么用的!
J: Hi guys I’m Joy.
C: And I’m Chris. Today’s idiom is: to each his own. It’s usually used as a sentence by itself. Some people also use: to each their own.
J: It means that everyone is free to like different things, have their own opinions and make their own choices. Maybe you and your friend don’t agree on the same style of clothing, car brand or taste in food. It’s OK for people to be different. So when you learn about other people’s preferences, you can always say: to each his own. Here’s an example of it:
C: Hey Amanda. Did you see the new scary movie that just came out in the movie theater?
J: Oh gosh. No I didn’t. I don’t really like watching scary movies. It gives me nightmares.
C: Really? But this movie is so great. You really gotta see it!
J: Umm...I’ll pass. Wow, you like scary movies? To each his own, I guess.
C: Well, just for the record. I don’t actually like horror movies. Do you and your friends enjoy different things? Let us know in the comments below.
J: And if you are looking for private English classes, feel free to contact us! Talk to you next time! Bye!
