【聽歌學英語】

My castle crumbled overnight

我的城堡一夜之間轟然倒塌

crumble這個動詞的意思是“崩潰；弄碎；破滅”。

The?cliffs?on which the?houses?are?built?are?starting?to crumble.

上面建有房屋的懸崖開始傾頹瓦解。

也可以形容力量和影響力減弱，崩潰，瓦解，敗落。

Support for the?government?is crumbling.

對政府的支持日漸減少。

?

Cause my baby's fit like a daydream

因為他就像我的夢中情人

daydream的意思是“美夢，幻想，白日夢”。

She stared out of the windows, lost in daydreams.

她凝視窗外，陷入白日夢中。

?

My baby's fly like a jet stream

他就像急流般翱翔于高空?

jet stream的意思是“急流；噴射氣流”，來看看stream這個詞。

它的名詞含義是小河；水流，作動詞的基本意思是“流動”，也可以指大量不斷地流動，引申可指“飄動”。

最近很流行的“網(wǎng)絡(luò)直播”就翻譯為live video streaming，這是名詞含義，動詞就翻譯為live-stream。

live-stream classes?to keep students from falling behind

利用網(wǎng)絡(luò)直播授課，以防學生功課落下

?

They fade to nothing when I look at him

但當我看到他的身影，他們都不復(fù)存在

fade的意思是“?逐漸消失；褪色；凋謝”，看一下常見搭配：

fade into darkness消失在黑暗中

fade into obscurity化為一片朦朧

fade to silence變得沉寂

fade from mind從腦海中消失

?

Bridges burn, I never learn

破釜沉舟，我永遠都學不會

這里用到了一個習語“burn your boats/bridges”，意思是自斷退路；破釜沉舟。

Now you have resigned your position in the company; you have burned your boats.

現(xiàn)在你已經(jīng)辭去了公司中的職務(wù)，你沒有退路了。

?

Starry eyes sparking up my darkest night

他清澈明亮的眼眸劃亮了我的黑暗夜空

starry的意思很好理解，就是“星光照耀的；象星星一樣閃亮的”。比如：

a starry night/sky

繁星點點的夜晚／天空

spark做不及物動詞，表示“閃爍；冒火花；熱情回應(yīng)”；做及物動詞，表示“激發(fā)；引起；向...求愛”。

spark用作名詞時意思是“火花”，也有衍生義為“導(dǎo)火線，誘因”。

That small incident was the spark that set off the street riots.

那件小事是街頭暴亂的誘因。
