輕松日記商務(wù)職場篇 第36期:火上澆油
You don't have to rub it in. I already feel bad enough as it is.
不要再火上澆油了，我已經(jīng)夠難過了。
rub it in直譯過來就是：“反復(fù)摩擦它的里面”，這個短語的正確意思是：“火上澆油，故意觸人痛處”。因此，當(dāng)美國人說"You don't have to rub it in. I already feel bad enough as it is."時，他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"Don't pile on. I've felt bad enough."、"You make it worse, and I am upset enough."。
