【句子】Look, I said a lot of things I wish I could take back but I can’t. 【Modern Family-S1E7】
【发音】[lʊk] [aɪ] [sed] [ə] [lɒt] [əv] [θɪŋz] [aɪ] [wɪʃ] [aɪ] [kʊd] [teɪk] [bæk] [bʌt] [aɪ] [kænt]
【发音技巧】a lot of 可做连读;take back当中take末尾的[k]完全失去爆破,只做口型不发音;but之前停顿;
【翻译】听着,我说过很多让我追悔莫及的话。
【适用场合】本句中有一个定语从句,当中又包含了虚拟语气;take back的意思很多,今天句子中的意思是:① If you take something back, you admit that something that you said or thought is wrong. 承认之前的所想所思有错误,撤回之前说的话。
eg: Take back what you said about Jeremy! 收回你之前说的那些关于Jeremy的言论!
再补充一个take back的用法:② If you say that something takes you back, you mean that it reminds you of a period of your past life and makes you think about it again. 让人回忆起以前的事情。
