[時事英文] Keep away from me?
完整影片: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-\-\_57Y4DzvY
想必大家看完影片後就知道柯市長已經說「不用」婉拒好幾次了，使用Keep away from me 時個人推測是有一點在開玩笑吧。
我們在看英文短語時不可斷章取義，而是一定要看完整的語境!
如果柯市長真的是要表達不耐煩，那Keep away from me 用法是正確的，因為短語的意思是「與我保持距離」。Leave me alone (別打擾我)也是雷同的，通常是不想受到干擾才會用到這兩句。
比較婉轉的說詞去婉拒空服人員應該是No, thanks. 、I’m fine, thank you、I'm good, thanks、Thank you, but I’m good。
I’m good字面上的意思是「我很好」，但是實際的意思是「我很好了，不用再麻煩了」。通常我們在拒絕別人之前都會先感謝，所以常會先說一句 thanks 或 thank you。
但是說真的，柯市長已經非常客氣了 🙂
