真正的“伪装者”：英文你该怎么说人“装”？

蓝丝巾1

明明有一颗再真实不过的内心，却偏偏要把它隐藏起来。生活中有太多戴了面具的人，你能将他们一一识破吗？英文又有哪些表达可以帮你拆穿他们？

1. 装无辜
Butter wouldn’t melt (in sb's mouth)
黄油含在嘴里不会化？如果这样理解你就太天真了。这个俗语的意思是指“假装天真”“看着老实其实不是”。

例：-He looks so innocent.
他看着很无辜。
-Yes, butter wouldn't melt, I'm sure.
是啊，肯定是装的。

2. 装有范
Put on airs
总是显得高人一等，故意摆架子，装腔作势，英文里是这样说的。
例：Some of her old friends have accused her of putting on airs since she became wealthy.
她的一些老朋友都指责她发财以后就开始摆架子了。

3. 装糊涂
Play dumb
Dumb意指“不能说话的”、“愚笨的”。Play dumb就是“假装愚笨”“装聋作哑”，总之有想法但不告诉你，揣着明白装糊涂。
例：Jenny knew where the sweets were but was playing dumb to tease her little brother.
詹妮知道糖放在哪儿了，但她故意装傻逗她的弟弟。

4. 装嫩
Mutton dressed as lamb
虽然上了岁数但是还是爱把自己往年轻了捯饬，英文形容这样的女性就是“装嫩”。
例：She's far too old for that - she looks like mutton dressed as lamb.
她岁数太大了，这么打扮跟她年龄不符，明显就是老黄瓜耍绿漆装嫩。

5. 装厉害
All bark and no bite
只见嚷嚷不见咬人，如果这是在形容汪星人，那它一定是虚张声势，光说不练~
例：John talks big about how much money he'll make someday, but he's all bark and no bite.
约翰总是说有一天他会赚大钱，但是只见他说没见他做啊~（爱思英语）
