交际口语01:信任

1.信任

1.惯用口语句子:

Seem believable.

来可信。

Sounds true.

听上去是真的。

believable a. 可信的

“Seem believable.”是一个省略句,省略了复数形式的主语,若省略的主语为单数形式,则要说成“Seems believable.”;接下来的“Sounds true.”

也是这个道理。

I believe you.

I我相信你。

I have faith in you.

implicitly ad.绝对地,不怀疑地

utmost a. 极度的

I trust you completely.

= I have the complete faith in you.

我完全信任你。

completely ad.完全地,彻底地(complete是形容词)

I take your word for it.

= I believe what you said.

= I think what you said is true.

我相信你的话。

I have great belief in his ability.

我完全相信他的能力。

belief n. 信任.信心

ability n. 能力,才干

I have no doubt about it.

= There’s no doubt in my mind.

= There’s not a doubt in my mind.

我对此没什么疑问。

doubt n. & v. 怀疑,疑惑

我再相信你一次。
