美日一句：

１) 就是說嘛
(美)
A: Gosh! The gas price is outrageous!
B: Tell me about it. It used to cost me 50 dollars to fill the tank. Now I have to pay 80 to fill up.
A: O-ba-ma! O-ba-ma! O-ba-ma! O-ba-ma! O-ba-ma!........
B: Are you sure it's going to solve this problem just to vote for a president candidate that promises "change"?

(中)
甲：天啊！汽油的價錢太離譜了！
乙：就是說啊。以前我加滿一缸油只要50美元，現在竟然要80美元才能加滿。
甲：歐巴馬！歐巴馬！歐巴馬！歐巴馬！歐巴馬！……
乙：你確定投給一個口口聲聲說「美國需要改變」的總統候選人就能解決這個問題？


２) 說來聽聽
(美)
A: Hey, how come you didn't pick up your phone last night?
B: I went to Linkin Park's concert in downtown.
A: Really? Really? I LOVE Linkin Park! Tell me about it! How was it?

(中)
甲：喂，你昨晚怎麼沒有接電話？
乙：我跑去城裡看聯合公園的演唱會了。
甲：真的嗎？真的嗎？我超愛聯合公園的！跟我說，演唱會怎麼樣？


Tell me about it. = １) 就是說嘛；我有同感 ２) 說來聽聽


寨主解：Tell me about it 是口頭上常常掛著的一句話，常常表示深有同感。例如公司實行了一項新政策，同事之間私下抱怨「This policy is ridiculous!」你可以滿臉哀怨地接著說「Tell me about it. I've already heard so many people complaining.」


寨主曰：老師有教過，天底下最美麗的動作就是查字典！
