Felicity:Oops,l'm sorry.I do hope you meetTHE one (哎呀,不好意思。我希望你真的遇到你的那一位!) 除了普通的take something with a grain of salt,我们还可以在grain前面通过big. huge之类的形容词来加深程度, Shirley: Yeah.you are right.only time she does up is when she get 100. She's simply too good.(你说得没错。她只有考100分的时候才叫“没有考砸”。她的成绩实在太好了。)Theodore: Congrauilaiions on thebahy!(恭喜你的宝宝!)Sibyl: Excuse me? What baby?(嗯?什么宝宝?)
Theodore: Aren't you pregnant? (你不是怀孕了吗?Sibyl: Not at all Wherc did you哪里听来的?)Theodore: Randolph . (Randolph那里 )Sibyl:No wonder. He's neverescrious. You should take anything he savs with a huge grain ofsalt!(难怪了。他从来没个正经。他说的任何东西你都别相信!) 另外,这个短语中的grain也可以用pinch(小撮)
意思和用法不变。总体上来看,美国人还是更用grain。
