英语中常见介词构成的短语
有人会问我，那“口头禅”的英文要怎么讲? 答案是：英文中没有所谓的“口头禅”这个词，唯一比较接近的讲法应该是 convention(惯用语)。
1. He is a nice person, you know, everybody likes him.
他是一个好人，(对吧!)，大家都喜欢他。
You know 大概可以算是美国口头禅排行榜的第一名了，有许多老美常常会不自觉的在句子中插入“you know”来转折语句气，但这跟你知不知道其实一点关系也没有，它反而有点像是中文口头禅的“对吧”，所以就算你不知道他说的这件事，他还是会说“you know”。这种词偶尔用在句子中还无伤大雅，可是要是用得太多了，反而会让听话的人分心，抓不到你讲话的重点。
另外有时候一连串的 “You know” 也代表你想要描述一件事情，但一时之间讲不清楚，但对方大概也知道你在讲也什么东西，例如“The capital of Cuba is, you know, you know.”(古巴的首都在……(我一时想不太起来)那个你知道什么地方的地方)。
2. Look, the fact is I don't like him at all.
我跟你说，事实上我一点也不喜欢他。
老美在跟别人讲话之前，特别是说一些比较认真的事情时，都会加上 Look 这个词，它的'意思是“我告诉你喔!”或是 “我跟你说”。由于Look 是一种惯用法，所以你把 Look说成 Listen也对，但如果你仔细统计一下的话，说Look的人肯定是比说 Listen的人要多。
3. I was just like, "Hey! Don't even think of parking here."
我就这样说：“喂! 你想都别想把车给停在这。”
老美在叙述某人说了某句话时，他们不会说“I said...” 或是 “He said...” 而会说 “I was just like...” 和 “He was just like...”，当然也不一定指说过的话，指当时的想法也可以，例如你曾经想“完了，我的车被吊走了”就可以说“I was just like; No way, my car was towed.”
