得饒人處且饒人

　　BEC商務(wù)英語(yǔ)核心句型：

　　Get off the doggie's tail.

　　得饒人處且饒人，放他一馬吧!

　　Get off the doggie's tail. 直譯過(guò)來(lái)就是：“放過(guò)狗尾巴”，顯然不能這樣望文生義，這個(gè)句子的正確意思是：“得饒人處且饒人，放別人一馬”。因此，當(dāng)美國(guó)人說(shuō)"Get off the doggie's tail."時(shí)，他/她要表達(dá)的意思就是:"Let him off."、"Let's forgive him if possible."、"Let's be lenient whenever it is possible."。

　　情景對(duì)白：

　　Terry: That guy betrayed us. I hate his guts. It's not enough to just fire him.

　　泰瑞：那個(gè)家伙背叛了我們。我對(duì)他恨之入骨。炒掉他還不夠解恨。

　　Benjamin: Enough, Terry. Get off the doggie's tail.

　　本杰明：行了，泰瑞。得饒人處且饒人，放他一馬吧!

　　②I said I would never forgive him and he would pay the price for what he had done.
