人山人海:在诗词用语(poetic expression)里,老外也有使用:"a (the) sea offaces",颇有咱的"人山人海"的味道。
例如:Looking out upon the sea of faces, Mr. A delivered a touchingspeech.(望着一片人山人海的听众,A先生发表一篇动人的演说。)
Standing at his podium, President Clinton saw a sea of faces waving athim.(克林顿总统站在讲台上看到人山人海的人群挥手向他致意。)
可见,说话者通常要在台上或高处,才有"人海"的感觉。因此,可以说:"I saw a sea of faces from the top of thebuilding. "但在平地的人群中,就不说:"I saw the sea of faces."也不说:"There is a sea offaces."只说:"I saw a large crowd of people."
