英语中有个十分形象地道的表达,“be/live in each other's pockets”,表示“形影不离”。按字面理解,“pocket”表示“口袋”,“住在对方的口袋里”,亲密程度可见一斑,形容“过从甚密;形影不离”。比如,班主任见你跟班里谁谁谁走得太近了,唠叨一句“I don't think it's good the way you two are always in each other's pockets.”,是说“我觉得你俩老是形影不离,这样不太好”。嗯,距离产生美。
例句:They have such a close relationship that they seem to live in each other’s pockets.
他们关系太好了,貌似每天都黏在一起。
Being in a relationship doesn't mean you have to live in each other's pockets.
恋爱了并不意味着你们要形影不离。
类似短语:
inseparable形影不离
be joined at the hip形影不离
out of pocket没钱了
