When we go shopping, it is often easy to decide what we'd like to buy and what we want to disregard or leave for another time. Other times there is added pressure from a salesperson who tries to convince us to purchase something. If we realize that the salesperson is actually lying or deceiving us in order to make a sale, then we may say, "I'm never going to buy that."
當(dāng)我們購物時，往往很容易決定買什么，但也可能看不上某些商品或某些商品決定下次再買。有時候，營業(yè)員試圖說服我們購買一些東西。如果我們意識到營業(yè)員實際上在說謊或想欺騙我們購買他們的東西，那么我們可以這樣說：“我不會買你的帳的。”
This idiom－to NOT buy something－is used not only with physical items that are for sale, but indeed in any situation where we do not trust the words or explanation that we are hearing. It means that we think the story we are hearing is not true. It may be purposely false in order to deceive us or unintentionally untrue because the speaker has mistaken the facts. In any case, it's always best to double check the facts and don't "buy" everything you hear.
當(dāng)你不是在購物時，這個習(xí)語的使用不僅可以與具體出售的東西有關(guān)，還可以用在當(dāng)我們不相信我們所聽到的話或解釋的情況下。這意味著，我們認(rèn)為我們聽到的話不是真的。這些話可能是故意欺騙我們，也可能是因為講話者的失誤而弄錯了事實。在任何情況下，我們最好仔細核準(zhǔn)事實的真相而不要輕易地“買別人的帳”。
