2015-01-12来源:易贤网

A: Mrs. Smith, you are always worried about your children.

史密斯太太,你总是牵挂着孩子。

B: They are my own flesh and blood. It’s hard for me to see them suffering.

他们都是我的骨肉,我不忍看到他们受苦。

A: That’s human being.

那是人的天性。

地道表达:

one’s own flesh and blood

解词释义:

flesh and blood是指“血和肉”,one’s own blood与汉语中的“自己的亲骨肉”无论是从意思上还是意义上都是相同的。

支持范例:

In fact, my son Mark is not my own flesh and blood.

实际上,我儿子马克不是我的亲骨肉。

I'll have to go to my aunt's funeral she was my own flesh and blood after all.

我得参加我姑姑的葬礼,她是我的亲人。

I must help them because they're my own flesh and blood.

我必须帮助他们,因为他们都是我的亲骨肉。
