like hell I will想都别想

先用全名调侃，再一句 spit it out 收尾，毒舌又痛快。

so important that ..., so spit it out

调侃对方郑重其事、催他快说时用；对不熟的人别这么冲。

口语

swallowed her pride 连读，spit it out 咬清。

I think I'm supposed to be ...ing

口语

抱怨里带一句 you know，像老友撒娇，气还没消就先软了。

I'm still mad at you, you know

对熟人说气话时用；正式沟通里别加 you know。

I'm still angry with you. ／ You know I'm still upset with you.

口语

still mad at 连读，you know 放轻。

I'm still mad at you, you know, even if I came. 我跟你说，就算我来了，我还是在生你的气。

把戒酒的无奈说成药毁了酒味，惨事讲得像笑话。

make + 名词 + taste like + 名词

口语

new meds 重读，taste like 连读，mouthwash 轻挑收尾。
