说曹操,曹操到:Speak of the devil.
刚刚提到某人,某人就出现。以前的传说是如果你提到魔鬼,魔鬼就可以听到,同样的,你提到一个人,一个人就出现,那么就可以说speak of the devil。
所以下次,当你谈到某人,某人就正好出现时,你就可以说Speak of the devil. 或是Talk of the devil.
例句:
A: Hey everyone, sorry I'm late!抱歉,各位,我迟到了。
B: Well,speak of the devil! We were just talking something funny you were saying the other day.说曹操,曹操就到了。我们正聊着你那天说的趣事儿呢。
