亲爱的英语怎么说 亲爱的 用英语怎么读
金钱不是万能的
但没有钱是万万不能的
每个月当工资进账,看到那个上涨的数字
心里难免感叹一句:“爱死这万恶的金钱了”
不过看到“dear money”
可别以为这是英语里对于money的爱称
dear money 是什么意思?
dear 除了表示亲爱的
还有高价的,昂贵的意思
比如:
The breakfast was good, but it cost us dear.
这顿饭不错,但是太贵了。
后来人们就把dear money
引申为高利贷,高价的利息
知识延伸:dear-money policy =高利率政策
例:
He said the bill fails to address dear money issues.
他说,这项法案没有解决高利贷问题。
