第 135 课:嘴这个词-1

People use their mouths for many things. They eat, talk, shout and sing.They smile and they kiss. 人们常用嘴做很多事。人们用嘴吃喝,说话,叫喊,唱歌,亲吻和微笑。

For example, if you say bad things about a person, the person might protest and say " Do not bad mouth me ." 例如,如果你说关于某人的坏话,那人可能会抗议的说:"不要说我坏话(Do not bad mouth me)".

Sometimes, people say something to a friend or family member that they later regret because it hurts that person's feelings. 有时,人们会在说了关于朋友或家人事情后,感觉很后悔。

Or they tell the person something they were not supposed to tell. 因为这伤害了他们的感受.或者,他告诉了别人一些原本不期望被说出的事。
