开会时,讨论时,聊天时,人一多你一言我一语的,说着说着就会发现“跑题了”。当你意识到自己跑题你会说,对不起咱们跑题了。那么我们用英语怎么去描述呢?可不要说“run off the topic”哦。
跑题,就是从原来的话题上跑开了,也就是离开了中心思想的话题。
一般会说:get off the track / topic / point
get off是离开的意思;track-正轨;topic-话题;point-中心
例:
(1) I think we're getting off the track here.
我觉得我们离题了。
(2) You're getting off the topic,get back on track.
你跑题了,快回正题上来。
(3) I think we're getting off the topic,we're supposed to be discussing the group work.
我觉得我们跑题了,我们应该在聊小组作业的事儿。
知识拓展:
1. 切题 to the point
例:Her comments on my work were very apt and to the topic.
她对我工作的评论十分贴切中肯。
2. 转移话题 change the subject
例:Mike tried to change the subject.
迈克试图转移话题。
