100个最常用的英语短语（十个简单好用的英语小短语）

憋了一肚子的话，却担心说不清楚？

其实没你想的那么难。英语里有许多简单、好用的小短语，能帮你表达千言万语。

快听Jenny、Spencer分享吧！ >>

英语有句俗话：

A picture is worth a thousand words:一张图胜过千言万语

#1. No sweat &＃2. No biggie 没关系、别客气、举手之劳

"No sweat" is a short version of "no sweat off my back."

"No sweat" 是 "no sweat of my back" 的缩短版

"sweat" 是流汗的意思，紧张的时候是不是会汗流浃背啊？

这时候一句No sweat，就能让人平静不少。

"No biggie" comes from "No big deal".

"No biggie" 是从"No big deal" 演变而来，也是“不是个事儿”的意思。比如：

怎么用？

A: I'm sorry I'm running a few minutes late. 不好意思，我要迟到几分钟。

B: No sweat. 没事的啦/不要紧。

A: Thank you for your help.谢谢你帮我！

B: No biggie. 小事一桩

更多类似说法：

• Don't worry.

• No problem.

• No big deal.

• It's all good.

#3. You bet! 当然啦、必须的！

"You bet" is similar to "No sweat". But it also has other usages:

"You bet" 和"No sweat"很像，但还有别的用法

This phrase can be used in a variety of situations across the board: 很多广泛场景下都可以用

怎么用？

A: Do you like living in Shanghai？ 你喜欢住在上海吗？

B: You bet. I love it! 当然咯，我非常喜欢！

A: Wasn't the performance last night awesome? 演出真精彩！

B: You bet! 当然！

A: Thank you for treating me to that performance. 谢谢你请我看演出。

B: You bet. 别客气，很乐意。

＊Bet是赌博、猜测的意思＊

You can bet your money on something (it's a safe bet): 你可以堵, 而且这是一个安全、肯定的赌注

#4. Totally 绝对的！

Americans totally love using "totally": 美国人绝对很喜欢用“绝对的”

Totally绝对是美国人的口头禅，用来表达认同和强调

A:Her skirt is too short.她的裙子太短了。

B:Totally. 就是啊!

A: This hamburger is delicious.这个汉堡太好吃了

B: Totally. It's mouthwatering.绝对的！让人口水直流

The term first came from valley girls: 这个表达最早是起源于“山谷女孩”。

Valley girls are girls from Socal (Southern California) “山谷女孩”是南加州的女孩们，因为南加州被称为“山谷”

#5. literally 真的，毫不夸张的！

"Literally" 也是美国人最爱的口头禅之一

Literally means "actually", without exaggeration: literally的意思是“字面上讲”，指很真实、不夸张，用来强调真实性。

但是实际使用起来却通常相反，超级夸张！

对比一下：

• The office is so hot. I'm literally sweating. 办公室真热，我真的在流汗，一点都不夸张

• It's so hot in the office. I'm literally dying. 办公室真热，我是真的要热死了，一点都不夸张。（但明显就是夸张）

还有一些词，比如"practically"，用起来也同样矛盾。下次有机会跟大家分享。

#6. Likewise 我也是

I literally can't recommend this phrase more: 毫不夸张，我真的太推荐这个词了

"Likewise" is used to agree with someone or express a mutual feeling: 它用来赞同别人的意见、或者表达同感

It's very useful in social networking situations: 社交场合很有用

It will help you sound very authentic: 它能帮你听上去很地道

怎么用？

A: It's a pleasure to meet you. 认识你很高兴

B: Likewise. 我也是

A: It's been great talking to you.跟你聊的很高兴

B: Likewise. 我也是

但是有种情况千万不能用！

A: I love you! 我爱你。

B: Likewise. 我也是。

Don't say that! 有人跟你说我爱你，千万别回答“likewise”

It's too cold and lighthearted: 太冷淡、太漫不经心了

帮你长话短说的小短语

#7. Long story short 长话短说

If you don't want to go into too much detail, you can summarize or sum things up: 如果不想赘述很多细节，那可以概括总结一下。

比如，Jenny常被问：

A: When did you start OpenLanguage? How did you started OpenLanguage?

你什么时候开始创办开言英语的？你怎么会创办开言英语的？

B: We started three years ago. Long story short, we are the leading English podcast in China now. 我们三年前开始的, 长话短说, 现在开言是国内最受欢迎的英语播客之一

如果觉得自己说得太多、或者说不下去了，

Long story short 也非常适合！

#8. In a nutshell 简单来说

It's similar to "long story short": 这个短语和“long story short”很接近

It can help you move the conversation forward. 可以帮你推进谈话

Use "in a nutshell" if you want to skip detailed description or put a complex idea in simple words: 如果你不想讲很多细节、或者想把复杂的事情用简单的话表达，可以用这个短语

It's a great snapshot: 是个很好的概括

#9. The rest is history 其它的都已是历史（就不多说了）

“The rest is history" is often used to describe past achievements: 常用来描述过去的成就

怎么用？

Steve Jobs started Apple in his garage with some computer parts and a little bit of passion. As they say, the rest is history: 乔布斯当年在自家车库靠一些零件和热情起步。

其它的都已成为历史，言下之意就是大家都知道苹果后来成为了伟大的公司

演讲时很常用

Speech/public speaking: 演讲

It's often used when people talk about a successful person or company: 常用来描述成功的人或公司

Everyone knows their success now, so there's no need to go into details: 大家都知道他们的成就，不用说很多过程中的细节

另外还有个说法，也有相同意思：

Fastforward to today：快进到今天

＃10. Well said! 说得很好
