口语小词误用大总结:Afford(11)

意思是买的起,付得起、花得起时间、金钱、精力等。

但是afford只能表示能力,不表示意愿。例如我们可以说i'm willing to pay, but i really can't afford it,而不能说i'm willing to afford it。

用好这个词,我们的水平就会提高一个档次,让你的同学打心底里佩服。

我们来看一些例子:

1、这顶帽子贵得也太离谱了,我买不起。

chinglish: this hat is extremely expensive, i can't buy it.

revision: this hat is so expensive that i can't afford it.

2、这个村子里好多儿童都上不起学。

chinglish: lots of kids can't go to school because they're poor. (意思表达出来了但是不精练)

revision: plenty of kids in this village can't afford to go to school (can't afford education).

3、抱歉,我跟你玩不起。

chinglish: sorry, i can't play with you.

revision: i can't afford to play 'games' with you, sorry.

这 100词到底要写多长时间,我也不知道。现在工作太忙了,老板要知道我偷偷干别的,还不炒了我,所以我还得慢慢写,i can't afford to lose my job, because i'm the bread-winner and i have a big family to support.
