Shrugging your Shoulders来源:考试大
在美国文化中,耸肩既可以表示无能为力,也可以表示不在乎、无所谓。其意义为:“别问我,我可不知道说什么好。”或者是:“我无能为力。”耸肩表明一个人感到无能为力或者不能确定自己能否对特定的情形做出确切的反应,即感到未置可否。来源:考试大
In American culture shrugging the shoulders can indicate either a feeling of helplessness or of unconcern : "Don't ask me, I don't know what to say, " or, "I couldn't help it." The shoulder shrug shows that a person feels incapable or uncertain of responding positively to a given situation.
