英式开场白:天气不错,对吧?
British: 'Beautiful day, isn't it ?'
英国的天气变化莫测。因此,天气是英国人最关心的话题之一。谈论天气时有个简单的秘诀:无论你是否同意说话人的观点,都要回答“对”。这是因为英国人常以天气为开场白,以达成一致立场,继而转谈其他话题。
The weather in Britain is uNPRedictable. So, it's one of the topics the British care most about. And there's a simple rule governing weather-speak: Say, "Yes" whether you agree with the person's comment on the weather or not. That's because the British start a conversation using the weather so that they can find common ground and move on to something else.
