恒星口语讲堂:"搞砸了"英语怎么说?

Screw up 搞砸了

今天是星期六，Michael和李华一起到纽约的 Meadowlands去看冰球。可是主场球队打得不好，Michael很生气。

M：I can't believe how poorly they are playing.

L：你说他们打得不好呀？ 说实话，我根本看不懂。我只知道当地的球队输了三分，这就输了很多啦！

M：Yeah, they have really managed to screw up this game.

L："Screw up"? 我不懂，这是什么意思？

M："Screw up" means not to play well. The home team is certainly messing up.

L：噢，"Screw up" 就是打得不好。

M："Screw up," it means to mess up.

L：是不是只能说打球时，或参加运动比赛时犯了错误？

M：No, it can be used to describe a lot of things. For example, I screw up on tests all the time.

L：噢，你考试老考砸也能用screw up来表示呀！这么说，"screw up" 可以用的范围很广。 要是说一个人工作没有做好呢？

M：He screwed up at work.

L：你老是和别人的关系搞不好，也能说是screw up吧？

M：Yes, that's why I don't date anymore. Because I screw up all the time.

L：原来是因为老跟别人搞不好关系，所以你就不交女朋友了。 Michael，你也别跟自己太过不去了。

M：I do screw up a lot; I make mistakes all the time.

L：我们都犯错误的，谁能不犯错误啊！我来给你介绍个女朋友吧！

M：Look, they are playing like that! What is wrong with these players.

L：嗨， 这些球员真的很糟糕，你看，他们已经输了四分啦！

M：I hate this! They can't manage not to screw up tonight.
