愚人节,似乎是为了给爱恶作剧的人们一个“大展身手”的机会。
April Fool's Day is traditionally a day to play practical jokes on others, send people on fool's errands, and fool the unsuspecting. No one knows how this holiday began but it was thought to have originated in France.
传统上来讲,愚人节这一天,人们可以相互搞恶作剧,骗人跑腿,欺骗不知情的人。没人知道这个节日是怎么来的,但人们普遍认为它源自法国。
Play jokes on sb 开某人玩笑。除此以外,make fun of sb; play a trick on sb皆可表示开某人玩笑的意思哦,但是要注意后面介词的不同~
短短的一段出现了三次fool,不妨来了解一下它们的词性哟~
April Fool's Day是愚人节的表达方式,这边的fool很显然是名词啦,表示愚人。
send people on fool's errands,errand是“差事、使命“的意思,这里意译为骗人跑腿,直译就是派某人去做愚蠢的事。因此这边的fool是形容词,“愚蠢的“意思。
fool the unsuspecting这里译为欺骗不知情的人。可见,这边的fool是动词哦,有“欺骗,愚弄”的意思。
想必,大家都了解了吧,fool有名词、形容词、动词三种词性呐!
April Fools' Day, sometimes called All Fools' Day, is one of the most light-hearted days of the year. Some see it as a celebration related to the turn of the seasons, while others believe it stems from the adoption of a new calendar.
