写作文时发现这几句话英文不会表达...大家帮帮忙，谢谢！

miss_steps

"难能可贵"英文怎么说？特别是“可贵”用什么单词？

我们不能...,他们也是: "we cannot ..., either do they"? or "neither do they"?

对某人的欣赏是 appreciation of 还是 to sb?

enjoylife517

1、deserve praise for one's excellent performance or behavior，比较难，参考

2、they can't either也行啊，或者就是neither can they

3、to比较好

miss_steps

谢谢！其实“可贵”我自己连中文意思都解释不清楚，难道英文里没有类似的词语么？

以下是另一些写作或看例文是碰到的问题。多谢各位了！

以下是引用miss_steps在2004-8-10 8:57:00的发言：

at the risk of sounding too direct 什么意思？

看不懂，一些范文中的个别语言可能有错，不要太计较

in his quest to do sth. 什么意思？

大概是在他的要求下

timber不可数？

要看具体情况，表抽象集合概念时不可数

At the risk of address the issue too direct 什么意思？‘

不是很顺的表达，大概意思是处理问题过于直接的风险

At the first thought, it may seem to be an attractive idea, but it does not bear closer analysis when we find +反对的理由？

也许可以这样说吧

how to say 一车接一车?

最好提供完整的句子

工业垃圾是 industrial garbage 还是 industrial refuse?

industrial waste

tons and tons of 有没有这种说法？

tons of 就可以了

only if you are really lucky won't you be trapped in a traffic jam 语法对么？lucky后面要加逗号么？

可加可不加

miss_steps

谢谢各位！

“一车接一车的工业垃圾”怎么说？

miss_steps

再问一个问题：着手去做，英文里面有没有get/make/put your hands dirty的表达方法？似乎曾经记得有的，但是翻遍词典也找不到。如果有的话，应该用哪个动词的？这里的dirty没有不好的意思吧？
