【原】“你家有金矿啊？”用英语怎么说？

“你家有金矿啊？”用英语怎么说？

如果你家养了一头牛，而且还是一头cow(奶牛)，Cow又每天没月不断产奶(milk)，把milk变现(cash)，那么，你家这头cow是不是可以称作You have a cash cow?

所以，可以根据不同语境把英语a cash cow翻译成中文“你家开有金矿啊？”等时髦的中文表达，其实就是过去人们说的“摇钱树”，“一铺养三代”等等表示“很有钱”的意思。

不过，从加强自身英语语言理解能力和英语表达能力角度出发，如果你是用中文“开金矿”，“摇钱树”来学会英语a cash cow什么意思，我却是把它说成下面你都能理解也会说的“高中英语”：

1. Well, if you call someone or something a cash cow, you mean that it makes a lot of money.You're very rich and very wealthy.

a cash cow就是make a lot of money(A cash cow means making a lot of money,you are very rich and wealthy)，这句英语你不会说吗？

既然它可以用来理解同样的英语cash cow的含义，而且还都是我们学过的英语，为什么不把它们用起来却偏偏“说”中文“摇钱树”呢？

如果make a lot of money太口语化了，我们可以说的更书面些(对你的英语作文有用)：

A cash cow means a product that provides a steady income or profit.

我们还可以把a cash cow说得“拓展”一些，从business角度表达：

2. Well,when we say：This product is our cash cow in our company,we mean This product has a large market share.

这样“用”英语能对你今后用英语跟人讨论a cash cow话题“有(英语)话可说”有帮助吧？

什么是a maket share吗？

你说中文，是“市场份额”。

我说英语：a market share is the percentage you have in the market for a product.Is it 10 percent? Is it 20 percent? and so on.

现在轮到你用英语a cash cow“说英语”1. Investment in houses in China is a cash cow.2. A player like Rooney is a potential cash cow to many people.
