1、Sb / Sth is the shit.
朋友说你 you are the shit!并不是在骂你,事实上它等同于 Sb / Sth is awesome/ the coolest. 超棒超酷的,超牛X的!
相反别人是在赞扬你呢!
①Oh, my gosh! You are the shit!
天啊!你真是太牛了!②Hey! You have to try this watermelon! It is the shit!
诶!你必须得试试这个西瓜!太好吃了!
温馨提示:the 千万不能落掉,否则意思完全相反了。You are shit 就是“你是一坨翔”,属于贬义!
2、not give a shit
千万别按照字面意思理解“不给粑粑”。
shit 的用法和含义不能只看表面,实际含义是:对…丝毫不感兴趣。not give a shit≈I don't care. 但前者含有“不屑一顾”的意思,比I don't care情感还要强烈。
①I don't give a shit what he thinks.
我TM才不管大白怎么想的。②I don't give a shit about sleeping. I want love or death.
我不管将来如何,我只要爱或死。

别让我发飙。
5、shit-hot
这表达非常棒的人(或物),并不是“热的粑粑”

同样的合成词:shit-faced,表示烂醉的、
