格言必修 【49】

字號(hào):

A liar is always lavish of oaths. —— Corneille
    騙子從不吝嗇誓言。 —— 高乃依
    lavish in/of /with sth means giving or producing generously or in large quantities. 是指慷慨的,大方的意思。
    例如:
    He was lavish with his praise for/lavish in praising the project.
    他對(duì)那計(jì)劃贊不絕口。
    另外,lavish sth on/upon sb/sth 也是一個(gè)固定的用法。It means give sth to sb/sth abundantly and generously.是指慷慨而大量地將某物給某人(某事物)。
    例如:
    lavish care on an only child.
    對(duì)獨(dú)生子女關(guān)懷備至。
    這句話直譯為:騙子一直慷慨于誓言。當(dāng)然,這樣的譯法就沒有上面的好了。
