give a dog a bad name and hang him這句直譯過來是“給狗起個(gè)壞名字,然后絞死它”,可正確的理解卻是完全不同,它可以翻譯為“欲加之罪,何患無辭;人言可畏”。
【例句】
Give a dog a bad name and hang him is true in george's case, for no in ever has a good word to say for him now.
人言可畏,喬治的情況便是如此,現(xiàn)在沒人替他說一句好話了。
Well, give a dog a bad name and hang him, right?
嗯,人言可畏,一旦有了惡名就難以洗刷掉,不是嗎?
