看绝望的主妇学高频短语:Ring a bell

Ring a bell: To seem familiar, remind one of something, or stimulate an incomplete or indistinct memory. If something rings a bell, it is slightly familiar to you and you know you have heard it before, but you do not remember it fully. Fig. [for something] to cause someone to remember something or for it to seem familiar.


中文释义:ring a bell意思是似曾相识,使人回想起。生活中,如果对事情或者对一个人一时想起,但并不十分确定,就可以用这个短语来表达。例句:Do you know Thomas Clyde? That name rings a bell.(你知道托马斯克莱德吗?这名字很熟悉。)看到ring a bell是不是想起了ring the bell,形式上一字之差,含义上毫无关联,可别混淆啦。ring the bell意思是铃响了,按响门铃。
