Written by Ethan 今年三四月的天氣一整個讓人很困惑~~ 一下攀升到30度又艷陽高照, 一下跌到15度又颳風暴雨, 完全不像印象中的春天那種.舒.適.和.煦.的感覺。(好久沒有這樣的春天了) 更慘的是梅雨季又要開始逼近~~ (準備發黴+倒霉的天氣) 既然台灣的天氣這麼詭譎多變,我們看看有什麼不同的詞句來描述天氣! 天氣很熱的時候,如果只會說 It's hot就low掉了 ●It's boiling hot. 熱到水就要沸騰了 ●It's baking hot. 熱到和烤箱一樣 ●Its burning hot. 熱到快燒焦了 ●It's scorching hot. 熱到不行 ●This weather is killing me. 這天氣快把我搞死了 天氣很不好的時候,如果只會說The weather is bad就out了 ●It's drizzling. 下毛毛雨了 ●There are thunder showers now. 現在下雷陣雨 ●It's pouring rain. 傾盆大雨,意同It's raining cats and dogs. 相信連阿公阿媽都會 ●It's raining like hell. 大雨下得很誇張 比較粗俗的說法 限熟人 ●There is a light wind. 微風吹拂 ●There is a gusty wind. 強風呼呼吹 ●The wind is picking up. 風開始增強 pick up增加/增強 ●There are a gusty wind and rain. 颳風又下雨 天氣很冷的時候,除了It's cold還可以說 ●It's chilly. 很冷 ●It's freezing (cold). 好凍 ●It's freezing to the bone. 冷到刺骨 ●It's brass monkey weather. 冷到不行 brass monkey黃銅猴 ●I'm freezing my butt off. 我冷到屁股快凍僵了 此用法,限熟人 ●It's bracing. 冷得很清爽,代表說話者喜愛寒冷的天氣 還有什麼常見的詞句和天氣有相關或是引申的意思? ●Indian summer. 印地安的夏天;形容秋末冷了一陣子後突然天氣很溫暖 ●It's warm and clear. 天氣溫暖又放晴 ●There's not a cloud in the sky. 天空一朵雲都沒有;萬里無雲 ●I'm soaking wet. 我渾身濕透 ●I got caught in a downpour. 下大雨的時候我剛好在外面 downpour傾盆大雨 ●The sun is trying to come out. 開始放晴了 ●It might drop below freezing. 可能會降到零下 freezing (point)冰點,也就是零度 ●I am/ feel under the weather. 我身體不舒服 ●May I take a rain check? 我可以延期嗎? rain check (運動或電影等的) 延期票 ●She's totally an ice queen. = She is beautiful but cold. 她簡直就是冰山美女 ~以下是Lucas和Cheryl的對話~ Situation: Lucas is waiting for Cheryl at Taipei Arena. It's pouring rain outside. L: Hey, ice queen. Look at you. You're soaking wet! C: I got caught in a downpour. The wind is also picking up. L: Didn't you check the weather forecast? There are thunder showers throughout the whole week. C: I thought the sun was trying to come out this morning. There's not a cloud in the sky. Who knows the weather can change in a moment?! L: It's April in Taiwan, you know. Last week it was only 15 degrees Celsius. I was freezing my butt off! C: It's bracing to me, and that's nothing compared to Canada. It might drop below freezing in spring. L: Are you kidding? I can't even imagine what it's like. C: Actually we experience Indian summer there in winter. It can remain warm and clear for a few days. L: So this weather is nothing for you, I guess. C: Well, I just can't stand the summer in Taiwan. It's so scorching hot that all I want to do is stay in an air-conditioned room. L: No wonder people call you "ice queen". C: You can say that again. I feel a bit under the weather. (sneezing) L: Put this scarf on. We can take a rain check if you need a rest. C: How sweet. The weather is killing me! 情況:Lucas在台北體育場等Cheryl。外面正在傾盆大雨。 L:你怎麼啦,冰山美女。你渾身濕透了! C:下大雨的時候我剛好在外面。風也開始增強。 L:你沒有看氣象報告嗎? 這週一直有雷陣雨。 C:我以為今天早上要開始放晴了。而且萬里無雲。誰知道天氣瞬息萬變?! L:沒辦法,現在是台灣的四月。上禮拜只有15度。我冷到屁股快凍僵了! C:對我來說冷得很清爽,而且和加拿大比這不算什麼。春天都可能降到零下。 L:真假? 我無法想像! C:其實在冬天我們還會體驗到"印地安的夏天"。有幾天會持續溫暖又放晴。 L:那麼這種天氣對你來說沒什麼。 C:我只是無法忍受台灣的夏天。熱到不行讓我只想待在有冷氣的房間。 L:難怪人們叫你冰山美女。 C:沒錯。我有點不舒服 (打噴嚏) L:穿上圍巾。你需要休息的話我們可以延期。 C:你真貼心。這天氣快把我搞死了!
