用turn to jelly表达“胆怯/发颤”

如果一个人由于胆怯或害怕而发颤的时候就可以使用 turn to jelly 来形容。这个短语也可形容人体的某个部位开始发颤。

  • When I saw how high up we were, I turned to jelly and I couldn‘t speak.
  • His legs turned to jelly after riding the ghost train at the funfair!

值得注意的是,形容某事为 like nailing jelly to the wall 就说明这件事让人无法理解也很难形容。



  • Writing the history of this period is like nailing jelly to the wall.
