48. I didn't mean to hurt you.
點(diǎn)睛
I didn't mean to...是一個(gè)很好用的句型,用在向別人道歉時(shí),尤其是無(wú)意間傷害了某人時(shí)。如:I didn't mean to make you cry.或I didn't mean to make you crazy.還可以簡(jiǎn)單說(shuō)成I didn't mean it.
本句中,mean to意為“打算;計(jì)劃”。如:
I mean to go, but my father would not allow me to. 我想去,但是我父親不肯讓我去。
mean還可以作形容詞,表示“小氣的;刻薄的”。如:
Don't be so mean. She just forgot to bring your book—that does not mean she lost it. 別這么小氣。她不過(guò)是忘記把你的書(shū)帶來(lái)了,又不是弄丟了。
