同學(xué)們還在Dumpling、dumpling、dumpling地跟外國人安利我們大天朝的餃子包子嗎?然而你知道其實(shí)國際上早都有ravioli這種通用表達(dá)嘛?其實(shí)實(shí)際上，許多我們自以為順暢的表達(dá)在老外聽起來可是一頭霧水的呢!今天出國留學(xué)網(wǎng)的小編就來為大家奉上各種常用英語口語的正式表達(dá)，幫大家糾正中式英語，早日跟Chinglish說再見!
在各個(gè)英語學(xué)習(xí)論壇上，經(jīng)?？梢钥吹接嘘P(guān)Chinglish(中式英語)的文章，但一般都是中國人寫的。不過小編最近看到過一篇長文，也是有關(guān)Chinglish的，但卻是美國人寫的，很有意思。這篇長文的標(biāo)題是Chinglish2English(從中式英語到標(biāo)準(zhǔn)英語)，作者是浙江大學(xué)的美國外教Chuck Allanson，內(nèi)容則是Chuck在中國五年任教期間所聽到、所看到的各種Chinglish說法。比如Chuck第一次來中國，下飛機(jī)后，負(fù)責(zé)接待他的東北某大學(xué)英語系陳老師說：
您剛到，我們吃點(diǎn)飯吧。我們要點(diǎn)Chinese dumpling(餃子)和Chinese bean curd(豆腐)，您看可以嗎?
Chuck以前從未聽說過這兩種東西，但出于好奇，就說可以，結(jié)果飯菜端上來一看，原來就是ravioli(餃子，來自意大利語)和tofu(豆腐，來自日語)。Chuck當(dāng)時(shí)心里暗想，這兩種東西，國際上早已經(jīng)有通用的說法(ravioli和tofu)，他們中國人為什么還要用那種生僻的說法呢?
以后Chuck跟陳先生混熟了，就問他，當(dāng)初你為什么不說ravioli和tofu呢?陳先生聽了大吃一驚，連忙解釋說，我真的不知道這兩個(gè)詞，而且我們的《英漢詞典》上也沒有這兩個(gè)詞。于是Chuck開始意識(shí)到，中國的英語教師、英語課本、甚至英語詞典肯定存在問題，否則不可能發(fā)生這種事情。
于是在中國五年的任教期間，Chuck收集了大量的Chinglish說法，從中挑選出一組最常見的，編寫了上面提到的那篇長文。下面就是這些Chinglish說法：
其中每行①第一部分是漢語說法
②第二部分是Chinglish說法
③第三部分則是英語的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)說法。
①歡迎你到...②welcome you to...③welcome to...
①永遠(yuǎn)記住你②remember you forever③always remember you(沒有人能活到forever)
①祝你有個(gè)...②wish you have a...③I wish you a...
①給你②give you③here you are
①很喜歡...②very like...③like...very much
①黃頭發(fā)②yellow hair③blond/blonde(西方人沒有yello whair的說法)
①廁所②WC③men's room/women's room/restroom
①真遺憾②it's a pity③that's too bad/it's a shame(it's a pity說法太老)
①褲子②trousers③pants/slacks/jeans
①修理②mend③fix/repair
①入口②way in③entrance
①出口②way out③exit(way out在口語中是crazy的意思)
①勤奮②diligent③hardworking/studious/conscientious
①應(yīng)該②should③must/shall
①火鍋②chafing dish③hotpot
①大廈②mansion③center/plaza
①馬馬虎虎②so-so③average/fair/all right/not too bad/OK(西方人很少使用so-so)

①盡我最大努力②try my best③try/strive(try的本意就是try my best)

①欺騙②to cheat③to trick/to play a joke on/to con/to deceive/to rip off
①車門②the door of the car③the car's door

英語中12個(gè)典型的中國式錯(cuò)誤
1.這個(gè)價(jià)格對(duì)我挺合適的。
誤：The price is very suitable for me.
正：The price is right.
提示：suitable(合適的、相配的)最常見的用法是以否定的形式出現(xiàn)在告示或通知上，如：下列節(jié)目兒童不宜。The following program is not suitable for children.這句話用后面的說法會(huì)更合適。
2.你是做什么工作的呢?
誤：What's your job?
正：Are you working at the moment?/What kind of work are you?
提示：what's your job這種說法難道也有毛病嗎?是的。因?yàn)槿绻恼勗拰?duì)象剛剛失業(yè)，如此直接的問法會(huì)讓對(duì)方有失面子，所以您要問：目前您是在上班嗎?Are you working at the moment?接下來您才問：目前您在哪兒工作呢?Where are you working these days?或者您從事哪個(gè)行業(yè)呢?What line of work a -re you in?
3.用英語怎么說?
誤：How to say?
正：How do you say this in English?
提示：How to say是在中國最為泛濫成災(zāi)的中國式英語之一，這絕不是地道的英語說法。同樣的句子有：請(qǐng)問這個(gè)詞如何拼寫?How do you spell that please?請(qǐng)問這個(gè)單詞怎么讀?How do you pronounce this word?
4.明天我有事情要做。
誤：I have something to do tomorrow.
正：I am tied up all day tomorrow.
提示：用I have something to do來表示您很忙，這也完全是中國式的說法。因?yàn)槊繒r(shí)每刻我們都有事情要做，躺在那里睡大覺也是事情。所以您可以說我很忙，脫不開身：I'm tied up.還有其他的說法：I can't make it at that time.I'd love to，but I can't，I have to stay at home.
5.我沒有英文名。
誤：I haven't English name.
正：I don't have an English name.
提示：許多人講英語犯這樣的錯(cuò)誤，從語法角度來分析，可能是語法功底欠缺，因?yàn)閔ave在這里是實(shí)義動(dòng)詞，而并不是在現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)里面那個(gè)沒有意義的助動(dòng)詞。所以，這句話由肯定句變成否定句要加助動(dòng)詞。明白道理是一回事，習(xí)慣是另一回事，請(qǐng)您再說幾話：我沒有錢;I don't have any money.我沒有兄弟姐妹;I don't have any brothers or sisters.我沒有車。I don't have a car.
6.我想我不行。
誤：I think I can't.
正：I don't think I can.
提示：漢語里說“我想我不會(huì)”的時(shí)候，英語里面總是說“我不認(rèn)為我會(huì)”。以后您在說類似的英語句子的時(shí)候，只要留心，也會(huì)習(xí)慣英語的表達(dá)習(xí)慣的。
7.我的舞也跳得不好。
誤：I don't dance well too.
正：I am not a very good dancer either.
提示：當(dāng)我們說不擅長做什么事情的時(shí)候，英語里面通常用not good at something，英語的思維甚至直接踴躍到：我不是一個(gè)好的舞者。
8.現(xiàn)在幾點(diǎn)鐘了?
誤：What time is it now?
正：What time is it，please?
提示：What time is it now是一個(gè)直接從漢語翻譯過的句子，講英語的時(shí)候沒有必要說now，因?yàn)槟豢赡軉杦hat time was it yesterday，或者what time is it tomorrow?所以符合英語習(xí)慣的說法是：請(qǐng)問現(xiàn)在幾點(diǎn)了?還有一種說法是：How are we doing for time?這句話在有時(shí)間限制的時(shí)候特別合適。
9.我的英語很糟糕。
誤：My English is poor.
正：I am not 100% fluent，but at least I am improving.
提示：有人開玩笑說，全中國人最擅長的一句英文是：My English is poor.外國人遇到自己外語不好的情況，他們會(huì)說：I am still having a few problem，but I am getting better.
10.你愿意參加我們的晚會(huì)嗎?
誤：Would you like to join our party on Friday?
正：Would you like to come to our party on Friday night?
提示：join往往是指參加俱樂部或者協(xié)會(huì)，如：join a health club;join the Communist Party.事實(shí)上，常常與party搭配的動(dòng)詞是come或者go。如go a wild party，或者come to a Christmas Party。
11.我沒有經(jīng)驗(yàn)。
誤：I have no experience.
正：I don't know much about that.
提示：I have no experience這句話聽起來古里古怪，因?yàn)槟恍枰f那方面我懂得不多，或者這方面我不在行，就行了。I am not really an expert in this area.
12.——這個(gè)春節(jié)你回家嗎?——是的，我回去。
--Will you be going back home for the Spring Festival?
誤：--Of course!
正：--Sure./Certainly.
提示：以英語為母語的人使用of course的頻率要比中國的學(xué)生低得多，只有在回答一些眾所周知的問題時(shí)才說of course。因?yàn)閛fcourse后面隱含的一句話是“我當(dāng)然知道啦!難道我是一個(gè)傻瓜嗎?”因此，of course帶有挑釁的意味。在交談時(shí)，用sure或certainly效果會(huì)好得多。同時(shí)，of course not也具挑釁的意味。正常情況下語氣溫和的說法是certainly not。
