名人教英文:龙搁浅水

龙搁浅水,难有作为,好惨情,用现代日常话,或就说 he's like a beached whale,一条搁浅在沙滩的鲸鱼,几乎死梗。

龙搁浅水亦可直译a dragon stuck in shallow water,这样描述,大部分人一听大概都拿得到意思,就是he is tied down,像给五花大绑,没得发挥。

若要重点带出这句话中郁郁不得志之意,可一试以下被动式用语:

?being sidelined, marginalised.
给边缘化。

例∶she was being sidelined.
?being elbowed aside.

例∶the director gets elbowed aside by the management.
?being pushed upstairs.

例∶the chairman has been pushed upstairs. he's been powerless.

整句“龙搁(游)浅水遭虾戏”,英文可以是∶
