關(guān)于顏色的英文諺語
A.red(紅色)
無論是在英語國家還是在中國,紅色往往與慶?;顒踊蛳矐c日子有關(guān)。因為日歷中,這些日子常用紅色字體。因此, red letter day指的是“紀(jì)念日”或“喜慶的日子”。
紅色還指“負(fù)債”或“虧損”,因為人們總是用紅筆登記負(fù)數(shù)。于是就有了這些詞組:
red figure赤字;red ink赤字;in the red虧損;red-ink entry赤字分錄;red balance赤字差額。除此之外,還有如:red cent一分錢;red gold純金;red tip on stock market指股票市場的最新情報。
B.black(黑色)
在英語中經(jīng)常有“不好的”“壞的”“邪惡的”這種意味。例如:black money黑錢(指來源不正當(dāng)而且沒有向政府報稅的錢);black market黑市交易或黑市(意為暗中進行政府禁止買賣的商品或外匯的交易,或指進行違法活動的投機市場),由此派生出black market price黑市價格。
另外,英語中,和紅色墨水是“赤字”的意思相反,黑色還可表示盈利。例如:black figure/in the black盈利、賺錢、順差;black figure nation國際收支順差國;interest in the black應(yīng)收利息 。
C.blue(藍色)
在英語中通常表示“不快樂、憂郁”的情緒。如:in a blue mood情緒低沉 。
還常用來表示社會地位高、有權(quán)勢或出身貴族或王族。如 :He is a real blue blood.(他是真正的貴族);blue-eyed boys(受到管理當(dāng)局寵愛和特別照顧的職工);a blue moon千載難逢的機會。
經(jīng)濟詞匯中blue表示許多不同的意思。如:blue book藍皮書;blue-sky market露天市場;blue-collar workers從事體力勞動的工人;blue chip熱門證券;blue button喻指有權(quán)進入股票交易的經(jīng)紀(jì)人;blue return藍色所得稅申報表(專供誠實的納稅人申報用);blue-chip rate英國的優(yōu)惠的信貸利率;blue laws藍法(指禁止在星期日從事商業(yè)交易的美國法律)。
D.green(綠色)
英語中的green常用來表示“嫉妒”,如 :greeneyed嫉妒/眼紅。
green還表示“新鮮”或沒有經(jīng)驗、缺乏訓(xùn)練,如:green meat鮮肉;a green hand新手。
green在財經(jīng)領(lǐng)域還有下列意思:如:green back美鈔(因為美元背面為綠色)(用于口語);green power“金錢的力量”或“財團” ;green stamp指美國救濟補助票,因印成綠色而得名;green sheet指政府預(yù)算明細(xì)比較表;green pound綠色英鎊(指共同體內(nèi)部計算農(nóng)產(chǎn)品價格而規(guī)定的高匯率英鎊)。
E.white(白色)
在英語中white常使人聯(lián)想起清白,如:white war沒有硝煙的戰(zhàn)爭,常指“經(jīng)濟競爭”。
有些事物因其顏色為白而得名,如 :white goods指的是體積大、單價高的家用電器用具,這類物體常刷成白色,故名;white money銀幣;white coal水力;white elephant昂貴卻派不上用場的物體或物主不需要但又無法處置之物 ;white sale大減價 ;the white way白光大街(指城里燈光燦爛的商業(yè)區(qū))。
