got carried away一时冲昏了头

拒绝说得直白却不刻薄，先讲清感受再道歉，边界立得干净。

I don't have those kind of feelings for you.

婉拒追求者时说，适合私下场合；别在众人面前说，会让人下不来台。

I only see you as a friend. ／ My feelings are not romantic.

中性

feelings for you 连读，sorry 前稍停，语气放软。

I value our friendship, but I don't have those kind of feelings for you. 我很珍惜我们的友谊，但对你没有那种感情。

一句温柔夸奖里全是舍不得放手的孤独，听着体贴又让人心酸。

It's so lovely having you here ...

对帮过你的朋友表达不舍时说；对不熟的人说会显得太黏人。

It's so nice having you here. ／ I wish you could stay and guide me.

中性

lovely 重读，telling me 连读，句尾放软。

It's so lovely having you here to show me around. 有你在旁边带我认路，真好。

两个短句一认一补，把越界说成一时冲动，既道歉又给自己留了脸。

Sorry, I got carried away. I didn't mean to.

话说重了或做得过火后道歉用；真造成伤害时，别只说这句就完。

I overstepped; I'm sorry. ／ That came out wrong, my fault.

口语

carried away 连读，didn't mean to 放轻带过。

Sorry, I got carried away and said too much. 对不起，我一时上头，话说过了。

用一句英式庆幸把后怕说成笑谈，倒霉事也有了台阶。

It's a good job + 从句

事情没出大岔子时用，熟人之间最自然；对客户或正式汇报别这么随意。

Good thing it didn't get nicked. ／ Lucky nobody walked off with it.

口语

good job 连读，pinched 重读，isn't it 上挑。

It's a good job I didn't leave the keys in the door, isn't it? 幸好我没把钥匙插在门上，是吧？
