看影视剧的时候经常听到有人说：“酒能壮人胆。”不少主人公在踏上冒险之旅前都会喝上几杯。这样看来，勇气可能也不是与生俱来的哦。
Liquid courage is a nickname for alcoholic drinks. It is so named because alcoholic drinks seem to have a fortitude-enhancing effect, making you courageous enough to talk to people you wouldn't otherwise talk to, and not care about things you ordinarily would.
Liquid courage（字面意思为“液体勇气”）是对酒精饮料的一个戏称。之所以有这个戏称是因为酒精饮料似乎有助长勇气的功效，喝了之后能够让人有胆量跟平时不太接近的人搭话，或者变得对平时很在意的事情不那么关注了。
来看下面这个例子:
Adam got some liquid courage up and tried to ask Lisa out, but he was turned down.
亚当喝了几杯酒壮胆之后试图约丽萨出去，可惜被拒绝了。 |
