看绝望的主妇学英语习语:Heads up
Heads up: Used as a warning to watch out for a potential source of danger, as at a construction site. Used as a warning to look out for danger especially overhead or to clear a passageway; a warning that something is going to happen, usually so that you can prepare for it; If you give someone a heads-up about something that is going to happen, you tell them about it before it happens.
中文释义:Heads up的字面意思“头顶上”,那肯定是小心为妙,所以这个词组的意思是“小心、当心”,一般是关键时刻、急促情况下用来迅速提醒别人。例句:Heads up, boys! a train is coming.(孩子们,当心点,火车开过来了。)跟take care、be careful相比,heads up更显得口语化,且发音更高昂。另外,需要跟head up区别开来,head up是“领导,主管”的意思。另外,heads up也有“提前告诉、提前通知”的意思。例如:I want to give you a heads up,I will not work tomorrow.(我想提前告诉你我明天不工作。)
