【翻译】这又是在搞啥花样?/ 这是怎么回事?

【适用场合】

今天节目中我们来学习一个短语,What's the deal with sb./sth.?

可以理解成:“这是怎么回事儿?为什么会这样?搞什么名堂?什么情况?”这样的意思;

来看看对应的英文解释:What is going on with someone or something? What's wrong with someone or something? What's the matter with someone or something?

所以这些表达都可以算作是近义表达。

 

eg: What's the deal with this meeting? Why was it suddenly canceled?

这个会议是怎么回事?为什么突然被取消了?

 

eg: What's the deal with this traffic? We've been stuck for an hour!

这交通是个什么情况?我们已经堵了一个小时了!
