第 252 课:情感表达-5

That person may say he is green with envy. 那个人可以说其情感色彩是带有嫉妒的绿色的。

Some people are green with envy because a friend has more dollars or greenbacks. 有些人之所以这样,是因为朋友拥有比他更多的美元或美钞。

Dollars are called greenbacks because that is the color of the back side of the paper money. 美钞被称作绿色的钞票是因为其背面是绿色的。

The color black is used often in expressions. 黑色在情感表达中经常被使用。

People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a black day. 人们把不称心如意的一天描述为“黑色之日”。
