喜樂美語

You can think of nuts as a screw that has worked loose inside someone. While it is tight, everything stays in place. Once it comes loose, whatever is inside comes straight out and nobody is steering any more: the sense comes loose and the person seems crazy, the feeling comes loose and a crowd screams or a parent shouts, the liking comes loose and someone cannot stop talking about what they love. Even the shout Nuts! is a word that slips out before you have decided to say it.

nuts 可以想成「裡面有顆螺絲鬆掉了」。螺絲鎖著的時候，一切都固定在原位；一鬆開，本來被壓住的東西就直接跑出來，也沒有人在掌舵了。理智鬆了，人就顯得瘋；情緒鬆了，全場尖叫或是大人發火；喜歡鬆了，就是擋不住地迷上一個人、一樣東西。連感嘆詞 Nuts! 也像是一句還沒決定要說、就先滑出口的話。
