英译汉常见错误 | get one's shirt off [out] 激怒某人

［例句］　My father isn't in a good mood, don't get his shirt off.
［误译］　我父亲心情不好，不要脱下他的衬衣。
［原意］　我父亲心情不好，不要激怒他。
［说明］　get one's shirt off [out]（俚语）意为“激怒某人”。若上例改成：My father isn't in a good mood, he has his shirt off [out]，则意思就变成“我父亲心情不好，他发怒了”。这种说法指自己发怒，而不是被别人激怒，也就是说，习语have one's shirt off [out]意为“发怒”。
