意思是買的起,付得起、花得起時(shí)間、金錢(qián)、精力等。
但是afford只能表示能力,不表示意愿。例如我們可以說(shuō)i'm willing to pay, but i really can't afford it,而不能說(shuō)i'm willing to afford it。
用好這個(gè)詞,我們的水平就會(huì)提高一個(gè)檔次,讓你的同學(xué)打心底里佩服。
我們來(lái)看一些例子:
1、這頂帽子貴得也太離譜了,我買不起。
chinglish: this hat is extremely expensive, i can't buy it.
revision: this hat is so expensive that i can't afford it.
2、這個(gè)村子里好多兒童都上不起學(xué)。
chinglish: lots of kids can't go to school because they're poor. (意思表達(dá)出來(lái)了但是不精練)
revision: plenty of kids in this village can't afford to go to school (can't afford education).
3、抱歉,我跟你玩不起。
chinglish: sorry, i can't play with you.
revision: i can't afford to play 'games' with you, sorry.
這 100詞到底要寫(xiě)多長(zhǎng)時(shí)間,我也不知道。現(xiàn)在工作太忙了,老板要知道我偷偷干別的,還不炒了我,所以我還得慢慢寫(xiě),i can't afford to lose my job, because i'm the bread-winner and i have a big family to support.
