有些朋友喜欢烫发,有些喜欢漂染,大家知道这些在英语中如何表达吗?今天,普特君就来跟大家分享一些关于“美发”的实用表达。 做头发用“do”还是“make”? 答案是do. 一般来说,在表示“做”的时候,“make”更倾向于结果,表示“制造出;生产出”,以下场景比较常用:食物、金钱、或者一些手工等等。 make/cook breakfast 做早餐 make money 赚钱 但英文中确实有“do breakfast”这个表达,比如会有老外问你:Do you do breakfast?这里其实不是问你做早饭吗,而是问“你一般吃早餐吗?”表示经常性、习惯性的动作。 我周天一般不吃早餐。 如果表达一次性的动作,直接说“have breakfast”就好了。 而“do”在表示“做”的时候,更注重于动作本身。常用于以下场景:做作业、做家务、做头发等。 Let me do your hair. 让我来给你做头发。 I do her hair, and it has to be just so. 我必须得按她的要求为她做头发。 同样的道理,“我剪头发了”就应该说:I got/had my hair cut. 或者也可以用名词“haircut”来表示:have/get a haircut. “简单修一下”怎么说? 我该理发了。 His hair needs a trim. 他该理发了。 trim也可作为动词使用: My friend trims my hair every eight weeks. 我朋友每8个星期为我修剪一次头发。 “洗头”怎么说? 很多朋友,有时候可能只是去理发店洗个头发,可以直接说: I need a shampoo. 我要洗头发。 染发 很多女孩子为了更加时尚或好看经常会把自己的头发染成各种颜色,给人眼前一亮的感觉。“染发”英文可以这样说: dye one’s hair have my hair dyed dye:v. 给…染色;染 If you dye something such as hair or cloth, you change its colour by soaking it in a special liquid. I want to dye my hair. have a tint 染发 tint:v&n. 染发 an artificial colour used to change the colour of your hair; the act of colouring the hair with a tint 你已经染过头发了。 挑染 说到“染发”,就不得不说“挑染”这个词了,挑染会让头发更有吸引力,也更加灵动特别。“挑染”英语怎么说呢? n. [pl.] 挑染的头发 areas of hair that are lighter than the rest, usually because a chemical substance has been put on them v. 挑染(将部分头发染成浅色) to make some parts of your hair a lighter colour than the rest by using a chemical substance on them 烫发 再来说说“烫发”,你更喜欢小卷还是大卷呢?烫发一直都很流行,男女不限,老少皆宜。“烫发”英语怎么说呢? perm:n.&v. 烫发,卷发 If you have a perm, your hair is curled and treated with chemicals so that it stays curly for several months. have a perm/have your hair permed 烫发 She had her hair permed. 她烫了发。 我要烫头发。 “烫发”还可以用“permanent”这个单词,这个单词最常见的意思是“长久的,永久的”,但也可以表示“烫发”哦: A permanent is a treatment where a hair stylist curls your hair and treats it with a chemical so that it stays curly for several months. |
