老外对你说:“The answer is zero”是什么意思?

“The answer is zero”

这几个单词真是再熟悉不过

组合一块看起来的意思好像也就那么回事

“答案是零”

但想起中文里那些和数字相关的成语

“不三不四”、“五花八门”...的意思

这么简单直白的翻译好像不对劲

The answer is zero

“The answer is zero”其实是表示白忙一场、毫无结果

例句:

No matter what you have done, the answer is zero.

无论你做了什么,都是白忙一场。

“白忙一场,徒劳”还可以怎么说?

1️⃣in vain

徒劳、无用的、白费力气

eg:My efforts were not in vain.

我的气力没有白费。

2️⃣for nothing

无结果、无酬劳

eg:All my trouble went for nothing.

我的一切辛苦都白费了。

3️⃣futile effort

徒劳

eg:You do be make a futile effort so, who can care?

你这样做是徒劳无功的,有谁会在乎呢?

4️⃣be of no effect

无效

eg:If policy holder cheats to obtain premium, due to the malice, the insurance contract signed will be of no effect.

凡是投保人出于恶意。以骗取保险金为目的订立的保险合同无效。

除此之外,我们再来了解一些zero的用法吧~

zero out

取消;归零

例句:

This program will be zeroed out in the budget for next year.

这个项目将不会再出现在明年的预算中。
