英语趣味小知识让我们学习一些有趣的小知识吧 。
以下是一些的英语和汉语对手指的称呼： 1.thumb ：大拇指 。与汉语相映成趣的是，英语的all(fingers and ) thumbs也表示"笨手笨脚"的意思，例如：（1）I'm all fingers and thumbs this morning. I don't seem to be able to button up my shirt.今天早上我的手怎么这么笨呢，好像连衬衫都扣不上了 。
（2）He was so excited that his fingers were all thumbs and he dropped the teacup.他激动得手都不好使了，竟把茶杯摔了 。2. forefinger ：又称index finger，即食指 。
前缀fore-表示"位置靠前的"（placed at the front），所以从排位上说，forefinger应为"第一指" 。从功用上看，此手指伸出时有标示或指向的作用 。
在一些英语工具书中，我们会见到这样的表示"参见"（index）含义的手型符号 。3. middle finger ：中指 。
此指居中，名正言顺，且与汉语说法也一致 。4. ring finger：无名指 。
从世界各地的婚俗习惯来说，结婚戒指（wedding ring）戴在这一手指（通常指左手）之上，表示已婚 。5. little finger： 顾名思义为小指 。
在美国和苏格兰，人们又赋予它一个爱称，管pinkie(pinky)，后缀-ie(-y)有"小巧可爱"之意 。和时间有关的英语趣味小知识职场英语 2010-02-24 17:52:16 阅读264 评论0 字号：大中小 订阅 （一） 时间是金，其值无价1. Time is money.（时间就是金钱或一寸光阴一寸金）2. Time flies.（光阴似箭，日月如梭）3.
