或許大家都有過這樣的經(jīng)驗(yàn),當(dāng)你很開心、過度傷心、過度生氣的時(shí)候會(huì)突然啞口無言,無言以對(duì)。此時(shí)可以叫做:I'm at a loss for words.(我無言以對(duì))。雖然是無言以對(duì),也可以說:I'm speechless.(我講不出話來),I don't know what to say.(我不知道該說什么),I'm flabbergasted.(我目瞪口呆)。
對(duì)話

George: At a loss for words because she's so hot and so wild?
Bill: No George, I'm at a loss for words because she's my sister.
George: Now, I'm really at a loss for words.
