Shownotes Transcript

【句子】It makes you realize we’re all just hanging by a thread. 【Modern Family S1E6】【发音】 [ɪt] [meɪks] [ju:] [&&rɪəlaɪz] [wɪə(r)] [ɔ:l] [dʒʌst] [hæŋ.ɪŋ] [baɪ] [ə] [θred]【翻译】命悬一线。【适用场合】hang by a thread 是一个英语中的俚语,而且很符合字面意思:被一根线悬挂着;引申为千钧一发、岌岌可危、摇摇欲坠。eg: The mayor&&s political future has been hanging by a thread since the fraud scandal.自从被卷入舞弊丑闻,这位市长的政治前途已经岌岌可危了。
