CRAZY TEACHER 的瘋狂英語教室 : 美國人這樣說
第二十四課 drama queen
有些人神經質,一點事情就大驚小怪,疑神疑鬼,搞得旁人不得安寧,跟這種人交往得成天安撫她們的情緒,更是一件辛苦的事。這種人就是drama queen。
drama queen n.
Definition :
Someone (usually a female) who always gets upset or angry over small problems; Someone who turns something unimportant into a major deal.
喜歡小題大作的人
Example:
Megan: You are late again. Do you know I have been wait 15minutes?
又遲到!你知道我已經等了15分鐘嗎?
Keith: I told you the traffic was bad....
跟你說了嘛!交通一團亂啊!
Megan: It's always the traffic...how could you make your girlfriend wait for you?
又推給路況,你怎麼可以讓女朋友等?
Keith: Gosh ! stop being such a drama queen.
天啊!別小題大作啦!
