【聽(tīng)歌學(xué)英語(yǔ)】

My castle crumbled overnight

我的城堡一夜之間轟然倒塌

crumble這個(gè)動(dòng)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(kāi)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(duì)政府的支持日漸減少。

?

Cause my baby's fit like a daydream

因?yàn)樗拖裎业膲?mèng)中情人

daydream的意思是“美夢(mèng)，幻想，白日夢(mèng)”。

She stared out of the windows, lost in daydreams.

她凝視窗外，陷入白日夢(mèng)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(lái)看看stream這個(gè)詞。

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

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(dòng)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(xué)生功課落下

?

They fade to nothing when I look at him

但當(dāng)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(jiàn)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(yuǎn)都學(xué)不會(huì)

這里用到了一個(gè)習(xí)語(yǔ)“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(méi)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(diǎn)點(diǎn)的夜晚／天空

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

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