今天我们学习一个短语,叫做get away with something
在英文中,get away本来有“逃脱”、“脱离”的意思;
所以get away with sth. 字面的意思,本来是:
“带着某个东西逃离、逃脱”;
to escape, taking something with one
eg: The burglars got away with a lot of cash and some diamonds.
那些强盗逃跑的时候带走了一大堆现金和一些钻石。
eg: The robbers got away with the TV but not much else.
那些盗贼跑的时候带走了电视机,但是别的东西没拿多少。
但是今天视频中是这个意思吗?显然不是:
get away with sth. 可以用来表示:
If you get away with doing something wrong or risky, you do not suffer any punishment or other bad consequences because of it.
或者
to do something and not get punished for it
“某个人做了某个行为,但却避免结果;逃脱处罚”;
eg: You'll never get away with cheating—one of your teachers is bound to figure it out.
撒谎/作弊这事儿,你跑不脱的!你的老师当中肯定会有人发现的。
eg: You got lucky when you ran that red light. Next time you might not get away with it.
你闯那个红灯,没被罚真走运,下次你就没那么走运了。
eg: You made that huge mistake! You can't get away with that!
你犯了那个大错,你跑不掉的!
eg: Bill often cheats on exams but usually gets away with it.
Bill经常考试作弊,但总没有被抓到处罚。
eg: This is one of the few jobs you can do and get away with being completely drunk.
这是为数不多的你能做的工作,喝得烂醉如泥也没人管。
