“我不知道”還可以用英語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)
生活中我們常常會(huì)用到“I don't know”(我不知道)這個(gè)表達(dá),可總這樣說(shuō)似乎也太單調(diào)乏味,用其他的表達(dá)來(lái)表示相同的意思會(huì)讓你的話更加有趣和自然。下面一起來(lái)看看吧。
“我不知道”還可以用英語(yǔ)怎么說(shuō)
1. I have no idea/I haven’t a clue/I haven’t the faintest idea
這些表達(dá)通常用在你沒(méi)有任何關(guān)于這個(gè)問(wèn)題的信息,無(wú)法猜到答案的時(shí)候。
e.g. ‘What time does the film start?’ ‘I have no idea. Why don’t you call the cinema?’
例句:“電影什么時(shí)候開始?” “不清楚,你為什么不打電話問(wèn)電影院呢?”
e.g. ‘Would you by any chance know where St James’s Street is?’ ‘I haven’t a clue. Sorry.’
例句:“你知道圣詹姆斯大街在哪兒?jiǎn)?” “不好意思,不太清楚。”
e.g. ‘Could somebody please explain how this happened?’ ‘I haven’t the faintest idea.’
例句:“有沒(méi)有人能解釋一下這是怎么回事?” “我也不知道。”
2. Dunno
這個(gè)詞為非正式用語(yǔ),一般在口語(yǔ)中使用,孩子們不想回答父母的問(wèn)題時(shí)會(huì)經(jīng)常用到這個(gè)詞。
e.g. ‘When do you have to submit this essay?’ ‘Dunno. I can’t remember.'
例句:“你什么時(shí)候要交論文?”“不知道,不記得了。”
3. How should I know?/Don’t ask me/Search me
當(dāng)你不知道問(wèn)題的答案,又很反感別人問(wèn)你時(shí),可以這么說(shuō)。
e.g. ‘Who left this mess on the table?’ ‘How should I know? I’ve only just come home.’
例句:“誰(shuí)把桌子弄得一團(tuán)亂?” “我怎么知道,我才剛到家。”
e.g. ‘What time did she say she was catching her train? ’ ‘Don’t ask me. I’m always the last to know.’
例句:“她什么時(shí)候說(shuō)她在趕火車來(lái)著?” “別問(wèn)我,我總是最后一個(gè)知道的。”
e.g. ‘Why didn’t he ask you for the keys?’ ‘Search me. I’m not a mind reader.’
例句:“為什么他不問(wèn)你要鑰匙呢?” “不知道,我又不會(huì)讀心術(shù)。”
4. Who knows?/It’s anyone’s guess
當(dāng)你不知道問(wèn)題的答案,而且其他人也不可能知道的時(shí)候,就可以用這兩句。
e.g. ‘Will they ever find the missing aircraft?’ ‘Who knows? The search been going on for such a long time now.’
例句:“他們會(huì)找到失蹤的飛機(jī)嗎?” “誰(shuí)知道呢?搜尋工作已經(jīng)進(jìn)行了這么長(zhǎng)時(shí)間了。”
e.g. ‘How the situation will develop from here is anyone’s guess.’
例句:“誰(shuí)都不知道事態(tài)會(huì)如何發(fā)展。”
5. Your guess is as good as mine
如果你和提問(wèn)題的人一樣不知道問(wèn)題的答案,你就可以這樣說(shuō)。
e.g. ‘Do you think we will be able to book the restaurant for Friday?’ ‘Your guess is as good as mine.’
例句:“你覺(jué)得我們能在周五預(yù)定到這家餐廳嗎?”“我和你一樣不知道。”
6. Not as far as I know
當(dāng)你認(rèn)為某件事可能是真的但又不確定的情況下,可以用這個(gè)表達(dá)。
e.g. ‘Has Clive left the company? I haven’t seen him for ages.’ ‘Not as far as I know, but I haven’t seen him recently either.’
例句:“Clive離開公司了嗎?我好久都沒(méi)見到他了。” “可能吧,我也很久沒(méi)見他了。”
7. It beats me
這是一種表達(dá)你不知道或不懂的非正式用語(yǔ)。“it”可省去。
e.g. ‘Why did he do such a stupid thing?’ ‘It beats me.’
例句:“他怎么會(huì)做這種蠢事?” “不知道啊!”
