标题: 打开话匣子之一[英语]
You flatter me.
过奖了

A: Gail. I saw your art show last night, and I must let you know how amazed I was by your incredible accomplishments.
A: Gail, 昨天去参观你的美术展,我一定要让你知道我对你的卓越成就感到多么惊讶.

B: Oh, you flatter me.
B: 哎呀,你真是过奖了.

老外从不吝啬夸奖别人.他们夸赞的话,也往往让人听了飘飘然.重要的是他们这种能够欣赏别人忧点的性格是很值得称道的.



alive and kicking
活着呢

A: How is your boyfriend doing?
A: 你男朋友好不好啊?

B: Still alive and kicking. Thank you.
B: 活得好好的.谢谢

因为脚还能踢,表示还很健康.呵呵

谢谢二师兄,long time no see, how are you doing?

关于flatter, 还有一个用法是 I am flattered.

在Friends一个episode里,一个陌生人和monica调情,monica就说Iam flattered, however, I am engaged....blah, blah...and then showed the man her engagement ring.

So if you are a MM and do not like the man who flirts with you, this word may be a polite way to decline him.

What really flatters a man is that you think him worth flattering.
