輕松日記商務(wù)職場篇 第32期:心情不好
I'm having a bad hair day.
我今天很不順。
a bad hair day直譯過來就是：“今天的發(fā)型很糟糕”，這個(gè)短語的正確意思是，“很不順利的一天”。因此，當(dāng)美國人說"I'm having a bad hair day."時(shí)，他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"I am so unlucky today."、"I'mhaving a bad day."、"I am in a bad mood today."。
情景對(duì)白：

簡：我現(xiàn)在一句話都不想說，我感覺今天很不順。

?、赪hat's wrong with you? You screwed up the presentation.
你今天是怎么了?這次發(fā)言都搞砸了?
