“无语”用英语口语怎么表达

“无语”用英语口语怎么表达

1. Speechless

因为厌恶或者吃惊而无语~

例：I'm so tired of my friend's excuses that I am

speechless。

我朋友总是各种理由来搪塞我，简直无语了我!

2. Bite back (something)/ bite (something) back

想说又不能说，话到了嘴边只能咽回去。英文里bite有“咬”的意思，bite back“咬回去”，这个短语形容“欲言又止”是否很生动呢?

例：I attempted to smile sweetly while biting back angry

comments。

我尽量挤出一丝讨喜的微笑，把一肚子气话都咽了下去。

3. Have nothing to say for oneself

不打算说，也不想说，总之不准备向别人透露自己的想法~

例：She doesn't have much to say for herself。

她自己无话可说。

4. Keep (yourself) to yourself

真正的“独孤求败”来啦!沉默寡言，对别人的事情从来不感兴趣。总之，自己的想法自己知道就好~

例：Nobody knows much about him; he keeps himself very

much to himself。

谁都不了解他，他这人很少与人来往。

5. Not be on speaking terms (with somebody)

这个短语的意思是因为还在生某人的气，不愿意跟他讲话。它的肯定形式则表示发生争论后愿意友好地和某人讲话。

例：She's not been on speaking terms with her uncle for

years。

她已经好几年没再跟她叔叔说过话了。

6. Lost for words

有种没话说是因为不知所措。当你感到非常惊讶或困惑时，有时真的不知道该说什么好。这个短语说的就是这种情况。

例：I was so surprised to see her that I was lost for

words。

见到她太意外了，我一下子不知道该说些什么了。
