🔎 Full Meaning | 完整释义

English:
This is a basically understandable but non-native Chinglish question. The more natural native English is "Do you take me for a three-year-old?".

中文:
这是基本能理解但非母语者的中式英语疑问句,更地道的英文表达为「Do you take me for a three-year-old?」。😤

📜 Origin & Background | 词源与文化背景

English: This phrase is a literal translation of Chinese rhetorical questions. Merriam-Webster Dictionary records that native English uses the fixed collocation "take sb for..." to express the meaning of "regard sb as", which is more in line with English expression habits.
Chinese: 该短语是中文反问句的直译表达,《韦氏词典》权威记载,英语母语者使用固定搭配「take sb for...」表达「把某人当作」的含义,更符合英文表达习惯。
