迷你对话学地道口语第256期:可不傻 不易上当
迷你对话：
A: Who broke the glass, Peter?
Peter，是谁打破了杯子。
B: That cat.
是猫。
A: I was not born yesterday. It must be either you or Adam.
你变不了我，不就是你就是亚当。
B: It’s me, mun, I am sorry.
是我，妈妈，对不起。
地道表达：
not born yesterday
解词释义：
改习语的字面意思是“不是昨天才生出来的”，常用来比喻“老于世故的”、“不容易上当的”或“一点儿也不傻”。
支持范例：
However young she is, she wans’t born yesterday.
无论她年纪对么小，你骗不了她。

我想提醒你，我并非是个乳臭未干的孩子。
