交谈中听到Off the hook可不是离开钩子的意思啦

from 早餐英语|实用英文口语

"Off the hook" 可不是 “离开钩子”!很多人第一次听到 “off the hook”,会以为是“离开勾子”的意思。但它的真实含义是“摆脱困境;逃脱责任;不再受束缚”。为什么是这样的意思呢?我们可以想象:“hook”指 “鱼钩”,鱼被钩住时会挣扎,一旦“off the hook(脱离鱼钩)”,就意味着逃脱了被捕的命运。所以到了19 世纪中期,这个短语从钓鱼引申到日常生活,用来形容人从困境中解脱。例句:After the client canceled the meeting, I was finally off the hook from preparing the urgent report.客户取消会议后,我终于不用赶工写报告了。The teacher forgot to collect the homework, so we all got off the hook today.老师忘记收作业,我们今天都逃过一劫。原声再现:I'm gonna do you a favor: You're off the hook.If you don't want 50-50 custody, you don't need to have it.我打算帮你个忙,放你一马,如果你不想要50%的监护权,那就随你。Let yourself off the hook.放过自己吧!更多卡卡老师分享公众号:卡卡课堂 卡卡老师微信:kakayingyu001送你一份卡卡老师学习大礼包,帮助你在英文学习路上少走弯路
