意思是說英文

"意思是說" 直譯成英文是 "That means" 或者 "That is to say"。這兩個短語都可以用來引出對某個詞語、句子或概念的進一步解釋或同義重述。例如:

  1. "That means..."

    • "She's leaving tomorrow. That means we won't see her again for a year."
  2. "That is to say..."

    • "He's been working on this project for months. That is to say, he's very dedicated to it."

在口語和非正式書面語中,"That means" 更常見,因為它更為簡單和直接。"That is to say" 則稍微正式一些,通常在較為正式的書面語或想要強調精確性的時候使用。
