2014商務英語口語對話職場篇
核心句型:
He always gets in Dutch with the boss.
他經常得罪老板。
get in Dutch with sb. 這個俚語來源于十七至十八世紀的“英荷之戰”,當時英國人對荷蘭人非常憎恨,他們在重創荷蘭人之余,還在語言上得理不饒人,在許多場合都用Dutch一詞表示厭惡、輕蔑之意。這個俚語的意思就是:“得罪某人”。因此,當美國人說"He always gets in Dutch with the boss."時,他/她要表達的'意思就是:"He always causes offence to his boss."、"He often displeases his boss."。
