在英文中，"求婚"可用pop the question，ask for someone's hand in marriage，以及propose to someone等短語來表達。

"結婚"的英文表達最簡單的就是A marries/weds B，比如，Zhou Xun marries boyfriend Gao Shengyuan。其他常用的表達還有，to tie the knot, to walk down the aisle, to get hitched等。

To tie the knot(喜結連理)至少在13世紀就用來表示"結婚"的意思了，knot在很多文化中都被視為"堅不可摧的承諾"之意。

To walk down the aisle(踏上紅毯)則指舉行婚禮時，新娘由家人陪伴走過紅毯，來到新郎身旁，然后舉行儀式。

To get hitched(拴在一起)更形象地表現(xiàn)了婚姻中兩個人的關系，兩個人是拴在一起的。

結婚雖然是兩個人在一起生活，但在外人看來，卻關系到兩家人甚至更多人?？催^下面這些句子，你就知道人們眼中的婚姻有多少種了。
