英语中有很多贬低人的语言，比如“老顽固”可以表达为a hard nut (硬坚果)，所谓的害群之马“败家子”则是a black sheep(一只黑羊)，而让某人十分厌烦则和“关掉(电视机、水龙头)”的表达无异:turn sb. off。这些使表达富于联想，生动活泼。
朋友之间
A: But I don't like her boyfriend. He really turns me off.
B: You mean Jack?
A:Yeah. He's a tartar. Each time I met him he would jump down my throat.
I can't understand why Linda should love a man like him.
B:That's what things are like. A nice girl usually married herself off to a man!
whom other people dislike. I hope you wouldn't marry a tartar like Jack.
A:我不喜欢她男朋友。他让我很厌烦。
B:你是说杰克?
A:是，他很难对付。每次我遇见他，他都让我大跌眼镜。我不明白琳达为什么喜欢这样的男人。
B:事情应该就是这样。一个漂亮的女孩通常嫁一个别人不喜欢的男人。我希望你不会嫁个像杰克一样难应付的家伙。
同事之间
A:What happened to Joe? He seems unhappy.
B:That black sheep? The one who almost ruined his father's business?
A: Yes. How do you know that?
B:Everybody in this company knows that he is a black sheep of his family. He splashed nearly a hundred thousand U. S. dollars in a few year.
A:His brother is also a black sheep，always bringing trouble to his family.
B:I will never do like him!
A:乔怎么了?他看上去不高兴。
B:那个败家子吗?他几乎毁了他爸爸的产业。
A:是的。你怎么知道的?
B:这个公司的每个人都知道他是他家的败家子。这几年他挥霍了几十万美元。
A:他的哥哥也是个败家子，总是给他家惹麻烦。
B:我永远也不要像他。
伴侣之间
A: Honey, why are you so angry?
B:It is all because of John. I cannot imagine how could he think I would go back on my words? I am not his sort.
A:But he is that sort. He is always keeping harping on things and trying to find fault with others.
B:Yes，I think so. He is always doing things like this.And he is always ready to get the best of others.
A:Yeah.
A:亲爱的，你为什么生气呢?
B:都怪约翰。我简直不能相信他怎么说话不算话。我就不是他那类人。
A:但他就是那类人。他总是对事情很挑剔而且总是试图找出别人的错误。
B:是啊，就是这样。他总是这样做事，而且他总想占别人的便宜。
A:是的。
熟人之间
A:Her dress looks funny.
B:I wouldn't say that. It looks fine to me.
A: Are you kidding. She's behind the times. That style went out last year.
B:Oh，come on，as long as it looks good on her.
A:Wow, you're really as out-dated as she is.
B :You're dam right. I'm out of style. So what? What's the point of keeping yourself in style?
A: No wonder you never buy me a new dress.
A:她的衣服看上去很有趣。
B:我不这么认为。我看上去很好。
A:你在开玩笑。她太土了。这种潮流去年就过时了。
B:哦，只要她穿着好看就行了。
A:哇，你跟她一样落后了。
B:你真对。我是落后了。怎么?保持自己的风格有什么不对?
A:怪不得你从来不给我买新衣服。
