big break出头成名的机会

先退一步再亮底牌，把自荐说得既客气又不容拒绝。

I wouldn't ... if I wasn't ...

要证明自己够格时用，对面试官、客户都行，别拿它去压朋友。

I wouldn't say this if I didn't mean it. ／ I wouldn't ask if I weren't serious.

中性

wouldn't 轻读，if I wasn't 连读，后半句往上顶。

I wouldn't bother you if I weren't sure I can do the job. 要不是我确信自己能干这活，我不会来麻烦你。

用一句身体感受写出被偶像点亮的瞬间，比直说热爱更有画面。

I walked out ... like I was in a dream.

形容经历大事后恍惚又激动时用，正式报告里不适合。

I left that place feeling like I was dreaming. ／ I floated out of the theater in a daze.

中性

walked out of 连读，like I was 一口气带过，句尾轻收。

I walked out of the concert like I was in a dream. 看完演唱会我走出来，像在做梦一样。

满口铺垫和口头禅，正好暴露他说得又急又没底气。

What I'm trying to say is (that) ...

要把话绕回正题时用，写正式邮件别这么啰嗦。

What I mean is ... ／ The point I'm making is ...

口语

trying to 连读成 tryna 的感觉，you see 轻轻带过。

What I'm trying to say is that we need more time. 我想说的是，我们需要更多时间。

把心声摊在偶像车座上说出口，big break 和 big chance 叠用，急切的野心全露在重复里。

maybe this is my big break, my big chance

向看重的人当面说出自己的期待时用，适合求职或求机会，别在已经有结果或正式宣判的场合再讲。

I keep thinking this could be my one shot. ／ Maybe this is finally my moment.

口语

as I'm sitting here 连读，big break 与 big chance 两处都重读。

Sitting here, I keep thinking maybe this is my big break. 坐在这儿我一直想，也许这就是我的大机会。
