If you have ever heard American English, you have probably heard this before: I'm a Jack-of-all-trades.
如果你曾经通过美语的话，可能会听到过这句话：I'm a Jack-of-all-trades（我是万事通）。

在美语中，这句话包含了一个人的大量信息。意思是这个人无所不能。
So what do you do for a living?
你是做什么工作？
I'm a handy woman. I fix and replace just about anything, from computers to showers drains.
我可是一个心灵手巧的女人。我会修理所有的东西，上至电脑下到淋浴排水。
I guess you could say I'm a Jack-of-all-trades.
你可以叫我万事通。（a Jack-of-all-trades）
Basically, when you say "Jack-of-all-trades" in a conversation, it's another way to say that someone has many professional talents.
一般来说。如果你在交流中使用“ Jack-of-all-trades”，意思是某人掌握了很多专业技能。
You may also hear this phrase used "Jack of all trades, master of none," it was used to describe people who learned how to do a lot of different things, but, they weren't able to focus on doing one thing correctly.
你可能也听过这个短语“Jack of all trades, master of none”。（万事通，万事都不通）这是用来描述某人学了很多东西，但是他们却无法专注把一件事做好。
And that's English in a Minute.
