輕松日記商務(wù)職場(chǎng)篇第26期:需要休息
I've been working hard. I need some R-and-R.
我一直干得很賣力，所以需要休息放松一下了。
R-and-R直譯過來就是："R和R"其實(shí)，這個(gè)詞原本是源于軍隊(duì)術(shù)語，它的全稱是rest and recreation或者rest and relaxation，這個(gè)短語的正確意思是：“休息和放松”。因此，當(dāng)美國人說"I've been working hard, I need some R-and-R."時(shí)，他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"I have been working hard. I need to relax myself."、"I have been working hard. I need to have a good rest."。

Shirley: Oh, hurry up, honey! It's 7 o'clock now! Don't you need to work today?

Benjamin: I've been working hard. I need some R-and-R.
