我一直很好奇,
为什么很多中国的北方人都很豪爽,说话很直接?
直到有一天一个东北的女汉子告诉我:
“天寒地冻的,哪有时间跟你在那儿磨叽!”
Well it's starting to get cold here in China.
What about your city?
How would you describe the temperature?
那今天我们来学一下用不同的姿势表达“冷”
我们可以说:
Chilly/Cool
Cold
Freezing
If you want to get dramtic you can even add a 。。死了
onto the end to say it is 冷死了
“I’m freezing to death!”
我经常听到有人说“今天冷死了”
但是注意英文里不可以说“the weather is freezing to death”
freezing只是用来表示你自己的感受
Imagine you are on a vacation of the entire US and your friends call to see how you aredoing, you might say something like this:
Situation1
How is New York?
CentralPark is beautiful,but starting to get chilly.
纽约天气怎么样?
中央公园很美,但是天气开始变冷了
Situation2
How is Alaska? See any bears?
I haven’t gone outside to look, I’m freezing to death!!!
阿拉斯加天气怎么样?看到熊了吗?
我没出去,冻死了。
来看一下地道表达吧
1. It's freezing/chilly out there!
外面冷死了!
2. It's a bit nippy today, but I will still run my usual distance.
虽然今天有点冷,但我还是会坚持和往常跑一样远的。
3. There is a real nip in the air today.

4. It's brass monkey weather today. You'd better wrap up warm!
今天真是冷得要命,你最好穿暖和点。
5. Tomorrow is supposed to be mind-numbingly cold. I need to get out my heavy winter jacket.
明天应该非常冷,我需要拿出我的厚棉袄了。
6. The wind really chills me to the bone. / The wind is bone-chilling.
