Tell Me More

A fire is more than flames in English. Another way to say you lost your job is to say you got fired. If you’re excited about a new job, your friends might say you are “fired up” about the new job. If you are about to approach a man who has a bad reputation, your mother might tell you not “to play with fire”.

If someone texts you or calls you and you reply immediately, you can say you “fired right back” with an answer. If you see your best friend flirting with someone, but you know she’s not serious, you can say, “It’s all sparks, but no fire.”

Fire在英語里不光指火焰。Got fired就是被炒了魷魚。如果你為了新工作激動萬分，你的朋友們可能會說你“fire up”（太激動了）。如果你要接近一個名聲很臭的男人，你媽媽可能會告訴你不要“to play with fire”（玩兒火）。

如果有人給你發短信或者打電話，你立馬回復，就可以說“fire right back”。如果你看到你最好的朋友在和別人調情，但你又知道她不是玩真格的，你可以說，“It’s all sparks, but no fire.”（只是有點兒來電而已。）
