英文上厕所的委婉表达_口语:英文中的委婉表达---表达怀孕

【#英语口语# 导语】英语中直接表达怀孕的词是pregnant，不过在大多数情况下，对于女性"怀孕"也不会直接说"pregnant"这个字，而是绕着弯子说，好比中文里我们用"有了"来指代"怀孕"。

英语里谈到怀孕可以这样说：She is "expecting"(她在"待产"中)；She is "in a delicate condition"(她正"怀孕中")；She is "well-along"(她"心满意足")；She is about to have a "blessed event"(她不久会有"喜事");She is about to be "in a family way"(她不久就要走向"家庭之路")；She is six months gone(她已有六个月的身孕)；She has a bun in the oven(她身怀六甲)。

还可以使用这些表达：
a mother-to-be
eating for two
lady-in-waiting
to have a hump in the front
to have one on the way
to learn all about diaper folding
to wear the apron high
waiting for the patter of little feet
with child (注意：没有冠词)

另外，虽然同是"怀孕"， 但未婚的女性在不希望的情形下怀孕时，就说：She is "in trouble"(她"有了麻烦")。
