恒星口语讲堂:"才怪"用英语怎么说?

2. Duh! 废话!
A: When I told my mom I would be home around 2 am, she had kittens! 我跟我妈说我会到半夜二点才回家,她气炸了。
B: Duh! 废话!(怎么会不生气?)
“Duh!” 是美国人用来表示“这不是废话吗?”、“这还用说吗?”等所发出来的一种语音。说的时候要有一种态度,有点像说中文的"废话!"或是一种语音“qi!”那样的语气。
另外“have kittens”的意思是“非常生气”,例如:The professor had kittens when the student didn't know the answer to a very elementary question. 和这个比较相近的表达有have a cow,表示“表现出非常强烈的感情,比如着急、兴奋、生气等等”,例如:Don't have a cow. I'm sure you'll find them.
