“big time” 這兩個字在口語中常出現在句尾
(線上翻譯竟然照字面翻成什麼 ”大時間”, 傻眼......)
其實 big time 是 ”真的...”, “很...” 的意思, 指在程度上很嚴重
比如: Jack screwed things up big time. = Jack really screwed things up.
(Jack 真的把事情搞砸得很嚴重)
或是 He pissed his boss off big time. = He really pissed off his boss.
(他真的把他的老板惹火了)
不過這兩個字偶爾也有別的意思
像 hit the big time 是指功成名就
比如: She is the first Asian singer to hit the big time in the U.S.
有時這兩個字用一槓連起來當形容詞
big-time 指很成功的, 大牌的
比如 a big-time lawyer 就是知名的大牌律師
也可以說是個 hot-shot lawyer 搶手的律師
