John wasn't making much sense on the phone
sb doesn't make sense 什么意思?我只知道,sth doesn't make sense . 說不通,解釋不過去.沒道理的意思.
還有They rated him highly as a colleague. 什么意思? him是不是他們的同事還是 ,把他當做一位同事. 怎么翻譯啊 。
謝謝了
■make sense 有時也可以用“人”作主語,表示沒有把話說請楚等。John wasn't making much sense on the phone 的意思是“約翰在電話沒怎么說清楚”。又如下面這個句子,摘自《當代美國英語學習詞典》:
Talk slowly; you’re not making sense! 請慢些講,你沒說清楚意思。
■They rated him highly as a colleague. 的意思是:作為同事,他們對他評價非常高。
句中的 highly 修飾 rate,不是修飾 as a colleague。
