今天我一学生生病了,远在美国念高中,倒着时差问我怎么请假,让我觉得哭笑不得。在外求学诸多不易,遇到生病的情况,若是心有余而力不足,肯定最是难受。

所以呢,我为了给广大少男少女解决这一问题,列出了一系列大家可以用上的表达,下次不要只会说I don’t feel good其他一问三不知啦。

(以下表达中Before是大家常用的,After是我改进过的。)


1.如果你的朋友生病了或者气色不好,可以这样询问:

Before: How are you? Are yousick?

After:How are you feeling?You look terrible (you look so pale)! Is everything alright?


2.感觉糟透了

Before:I feel bad.

After:I feel horrible.


3.发烧

Before:I am having a fever.

After:I am running a temperature.


4.口干头晕

After:My head is spinning and my mouth feels dry. (适用于描述宿醉hangover的状态)


5.偏头痛

Before:I have Pian headache.

After:I have a migraine.

e.g.:偏头痛是广大中年妇女普遍面临的问题。

Migraine is a problem suffered by a majority of middle aged women.


6.紧张
