成功求婚林有慧!
“求婚”英语怎么说?pop the question
其实是“求婚”的地道口语说法,
这里的the question特指:
“Will you marry me?”这个问题。
例句:
She waited for years for him
to pop the question.
她等了好多年等他求婚。
propose
英 [prəpəʊz],美 [prəpoz]
除了“提出、提议、建议”,
还有“求婚”的意思。
例句:
He had proposed to Isabel on her birthday.
他在伊莎贝尔的生日向她求婚。
另外,“求婚”还可以用下面这个表达:
ask for someones hand in marriage
例句:
Stuart asked for her hand six months later.
斯图尔特6个月后就向她求婚了。
“订婚”英语怎么说?engaged英 [ɪngeɪdʒd; en-],美 [ɪngedʒd]
表示:订婚了的,已订婚的。
get engaged
订婚
be/get engaged to sb
与某人订婚
例句:
They were not officially engaged.
他们没有正式订婚。
Shes engaged to Peter.
她与彼得订了婚。
betrothed英 [bɪtrəʊðd], 美 [bɪtroðd]
形容词:已订婚的;名词:已订婚者。
be betrothed to sb
与某人订婚
例句:
She was betrothed to his brother.
她与他的兄弟订了婚。
She is here without her betrothed.

“闪婚”英语怎么说?flash marriage
flash除了表示“ 闪光、闪现”,
还有“突然行动”的意思。
例句:
Are you in favor of “Flash marriage”?
你赞成“闪婚”吗?
“催婚”英语怎么说?“催婚”不是ask you to get married,
这个说法,相当于“求婚”。
其实,“催婚”可以说:
push sb to get married
pressure sb to get married
encourage sb to get married
“催婚”最经典的,应该是下面这一句:
Youre not getting any younger,
youd better get married.
岁数不小了,赶紧结婚吧。
