There are some "mouth-shaped" used in the Americans usually live in life, and there is a very simple sentence, but if you don't mention it, you will often let people "know the half solution" or "it seems to know". The examples mentioned below, that is, some of the American "Oral Zen" that often hear. 1. I couldn''t care less. This sentence means "I don't care", "lack of interest" (lack of interest ", i Don''t Care At All. Or i do''t Give A hoot. For example:
If you ask: What do you think of the budget-cut? (What do you have to cut budget?) You replied: i couldn''t care less. (I don't care) How do you like mr. Lee ''s Political Point Of View? (Do you like Mr. Li's political part?) i couldn' '''t care less. (I don't care!)
But sometimes the speaker also has a "mouth is a heart": for example: i couldn''t care reason. (I don't care about the upgrade or salary) and actually he is at all care, then people may Will answer: Yes, You do (Care).
As for i couldn''t care more. "I cared" (I Care a lot.) Or i Care Deeply. Similarly: I couldn' '''t agree more. = I totally agree. (I fully agree) I COULDN '' t please you more. = I Did my best to please you. (I try to make you happy) i couldn''t be more right. = i am Totally Right.
But for the foreigners, for "self-esteem", I don't want to emphasize my mistakes, so few people say: I COULDN' '' ''''t be morewrong. Note: The average person uses a negative sentence, but there are also foreigners to use the affirmation sentence with the negative sentence.
However, strict, I Could Care Less. = I Care to Some Degree. (Care can be reduced) i Could Care More. = I Care Some. (Care) (the subject can be used in any person ": HE , She, You, We, They, etc. But only COULD, no CAN.) 2. No bones about it. means: true, sincerely or exactly, to make no bones about it (Bone wants to add S, IT means Something) For example:
His Wife Is Beautiful; No Bones About It. (His wife is really beautiful) Mr. a Made No Bones About Ithen HE Talked About About Issue. (When Mr. A said that he is sincere when he talks about abortion, he is sincere. )W I Spoke on the topic, he said, "NO Bones About it." (That is, he agreed with me) no bones about it; the weather is very childly today. (Today is really cold) 3. Take IT On ME! Means: "This is mine, please use it!" "This is free" (Help yourself to it; it is free), this is a mean thing or some of the unusual things. For example: Here Are Some Candies from England; Take One on Me. (This is a Candy from the UK, taste one!) (One = Candy) The Restaurant Owner Said To Me, "Take The Dessert On Me." (Restaurant owner Tell me: "Try my dessert!") Please take the pencils on me. (Use some of my pencil!) (Maybe the pencil is engraved with the name, as promotional use.)
It can be seen that IT behind Take means Something, and the ON usually does not refer to others, so mostly in the first person singular ME. (If the couple are together, it can also be said: Take It on us.) 4. I am from missouri. This sentence sometimes adds a sentence: "I need to be shown." Or "You Have Got To show me." It means that people in Missouri are firmly stubborn, and they are not trusting others. They must "prove it", so Missouri is also known as "The Show Me State".
It is said that this sentence is popular (especially in the US Central Western United States) because some celebrities have lived in Missouri, including Harry Truman, Mark Twain, Walt Disney, etc. I used this sentence when I didn't easily believe in others. (Also have a half joke, for example:
He is not easily convinced Because He is from missouri. (He is from Missouri, so it is not easy to persuade him.) Don' '' 'm t 的 的 的 的 的 的;; i.... I fell, I am from Missouri.) We are all from missources. As mr. Smith Is A Tough Guy; He Must Be from missouri. (Mr. Smith is a stubborn person, he must come from Missouri.)
