短语 money doesn't grow on trees 的字面意思是"钱不会长在树上",实际想表达的意思是不要乱花钱,因为挣钱不容易。
例句:
My daughter Claire wants a car for her 17th birthday, but I can't afford it. Money doesn't grow on trees!
"Mum, can you give me some more pocket money?"
"No I can't – money doesn't grow on trees, you know."
请注意:
短语 money is no object 的意思是说你有很多钱,所以钱不是问题。
He lives in a mansion, has three sports cars and goes on holiday every month. Money is no object for him.
小常识:
You can often see Buddhist 'money trees' in Thailand. The tree above was part of a ceremony to mark Vesak Day, the annual celebration of Buddah's birth, enlightenment and death.
