輕松日記商務(wù)職場篇第16期:這家公司很可疑
The company seems fishy.
這家公司看起來很可疑。
fishy的本意是“魚的，似魚的”，魚滑溜溜的不好抓住，于是fishy的引申意思就是“可疑的、靠不住的”。因此當(dāng)美國人說"The company seems fishy."時，他要表達(dá)的意思就是:"The company is suspicious."、"The cpmpanylooks quite questionable."。
情景對話：
Shirley : The company told me that I was hired and Ihad to pay 200dollars for training. I'm a littleconfused.
雪莉：那家公司說要雇傭我了，但是我要先交200美元的培訓(xùn)費，我有點疑惑。
Benjamin: Honey, you'd better be careful. The company seems fishy.
本杰明：親愛的，你最好謹(jǐn)慎點。這家公司很可疑。
搭配句積累：

你覺得這家公司怎么樣?
?、赥he company promised me a good salary.

?、跿his company has hired me without a face-to-face interview.

?、蹵 lot of strange people were coming in and out of the company when I was having aninterview there.
我去那家公司面試的時候，有好多陌生人進(jìn)進(jìn)出出的。
