大家都知道 laugh(大笑) & smile(微笑) 的差別,
但只用兩個字真的無法體現現實生活中的不同情境,
I don’t know about you but, finding things that make you laugh is the best thing for my mental health!
✏️本篇料很多歡迎抄筆記,但我鼓勵多注意以下生活化片語的說法而不是單字,我會用🔥標記🔥最實用的說法!
!九月《感情價值觀》團班最後一週招生!
基本文法先搞懂 make / let me laugh?
⚠️注意千萬不是
letme laugh,let 是允許、准許的意思,所以必須用動詞 make me laugh,使我笑。同樣地,讓我哭、開心也是用 make me cry/happy。let me laugh是常見的中式翻譯錯誤喔!⚠️
The sitcom1 really makes me laugh. That's why I have rewatched it 3 times. 這個情境喜劇真的讓我大笑,這是為什麼我已經看過三遍了。
It is nice to have Amy in the office. She is funny and always 🔥cracks me up🔥. 辦公室有艾美真的很好,她這個人很搞笑且總是讓我大笑。
會心一笑
有時外表不一定看得出來,但內心被逗到的開心感覺。
You should send this meme to mom. She will 🔥get a kick out of🔥 that! 你應該把這個迷因傳給媽媽,她一定會會心一笑(被逗到笑)。
The message my daughter sent me was very sweet. It 🔥put a smile on my face🔥. 我女兒傳給我的訊息很溫馨可愛,讓我會心一笑(微笑)。

仰頭大笑是一種佛系態度?「When you realize how perfect everything is, you will tilt your head back and laugh at the sky.」像是彌勒佛般的仰天大笑,這說法在英文裡面有樂天的意思!常聽到形容老人家時用到,例如 The old man would laugh at the sky and say nothing. 😇
