我们每个人都会说的一句话,“我就说吧!”“我早就告诉过你会这样!”或者“我说什么来着!”,用英文说就是「I told you so!」,常常简略为「I told you!」或「told you!」,英文释义为“said when something bad happens after you warned someone that it would happen”。
别人不听你劝,非要做某件事情,结果栽了跟头、吃了苦头,你就可以回应——told you!
一起看看例句:
-My phone died again! I should get a portable charger.
-Told you!
-我的手机又没电了!我要买个充电宝。
-早叫你买了!
-I can’t believe the game was cancelled again.
-I told you so! The weather forecast was bad.
我真不敢相信比赛又被取消了。
我都说了,天气预报很糟糕。
-I’m really tired today. I didn’t expect the job to be so exhausting.
-Told you! It's not an easy job.
-我今天真的很累。我没想到这份工作会这么辛苦。
-我告诉过你吧,这活不简单。
