【新鲜口语】if worse comes to worst
记得有一次实验室一个机器部件坏了,于是去找老板,老板说:“Check with the company to see if they can fix it, if worse comes to worst, we’ll just buy a new one.”意思很明显,老板说和公司先确认一下看能不能修这个部件,实在不行的话,就重新买一个。这里if worse comes to worst 就是假设最坏的情况如果发生,该/会怎么样。英语的解释就是:if the least wanted situation develops…这个比较简单,就不多说了:)
又学一句地道话!!!
