第 337 课:像蜜蜂一样-5

Butterflies are beautiful insects, but you would not want to have butterflies in your stomach. 蝴蝶是很漂亮的昆虫,但你不会想让“胃里有只蝴蝶”(做事前紧张忧虑)。

That means to be nervous about having to do something, like speaking in front of a crowd. 意思是因为必须做某事而感到紧张,像要在一大群人面前做演讲这种情况。

You would also not want to have ants in your pants. 你也不想“裤子里有蚂蚁”(坐立不安)。

That is, to be restless and unable to sit still. 它的意思是坐立不安,坐不住。

Here are some expressions about plain old bugs, another word for insects. 这里是一些关于关于 bug 的俗语,( bug )是昆虫的另一个单词。
