生活里我们都有着“怕冷”的时刻
用英语怎么表达?
一起来看看吧
01“怕冷”英文怎么说?
be afraid of是“怕”
“我怕冷”可以说 I'm afraid of cold??
理论上没错,但这里的“怕”是指“恐惧,害怕”,尤指心灵被恐惧的情绪所控制,表示非常不安、恐慌而我们日常生活口中说“怕冷”多指容易感到寒冷,经受不住冷,一般没到那种程度来看看美剧中都是怎么说的:
① be not good with cold
《生活大爆炸》:
I'm not good with cold, Leonard. How often have we had to leave a movie theater because I got a headache from drinking the Icee too fast?
但我怕冷啊,莱纳德。我们都多少次因为我喝冰吸太快,结果头疼,提前离开电影院了。
②hate the cold
《驻院医生》:I wanted a summer wedding. Eva hates the cold.
我想在夏天办婚礼,伊娃很怕冷。
《暮光之城 》:

③can't stand the cold
《查理和巧克力工厂》
I have to keep it warm here. Because my workers are used to an extremely hot climate. They just can't stand the cold.我必须确保这里长年温热,因为我的员工习惯极度炎热的气候,他们怕冷。

“冷空气”用英语cold front
也有“寒潮、冷锋”的意思
front 是专门的气象用语,指冷暖空气的交锋

除了“cold front”外
