Day 9 “你讲真的?”用英语怎么说?

A: Dude,Angelababy started following you on Weibo.

D: What? Are you for real?

A: No. Of course not. She just followed me.

D: Seriously?

A: In my dreams.

D: Shut up!

听完今天的对话之后,我们要来学习一个非常地道的表达:“Are you for real?”

Yeah,so older people in English-speaking countries might just say“Really?”.

But younger people right now really like to say:“Are you for real?”

And you usually say it with that kind of emphasis. It just mean…Allow me to show off my Chinese:“真的假的?

OK,“Are you for real?”就是“真的假的?”在今天的对话当中,我跟大白说,Angelababy关注了他的微博,他不是很相信,所以他就说了这句话:“Are you for real?

So it's time for our bonus. You heard Alex say:“In my dreams.” It means “I really wish this happened,but there is no chance that it would ever happen”.

Usually we say:“In your dreams!”(Alex:想都别想!)Yeah,for example,Alex says:“I'll beat you in a badminton contest.” I could say:“In your dreams! I'm way better than you at badminton.”

在生活当中我们经常用这句话,“你想都别想,不可能”,就是“In your dreams”。

—Uh,Alex,I've been working really hard. 涨工资?

—In your dreams! Bye.

—Bye.
