「不在状态」的 7 种英语说法

今天有读者在群里问:「不在状态用英语怎么说?」

1、最常用的是「not (feeling) oneself

含义是「Not feeling as one normally should, either physically, mentally, emotionally, etc」,即「身体/精神/心理状态不如平常」。例句:

  • I’m sorry for getting upset at you earlier, I’m just not myself today.
  • I know Mary hasn’t been herself ever since she lost her job.
  • I haven’t been feeling myself lately / I haven’t been myself lately.

星球大战:天行者的崛起》中,Rey 在训练中心神不宁,见到 Leia 公主后她抱歉地说:「I’m just not feeling myself」,就是「我(今天)状态不好」的意思。

2、可以考虑「not (one’s) day」

含义是「A day that has been particularly stressful, difficult, disappointing, or filled with unfortunate events for one; not a good day」,但这更常用于表达「诸事不顺/运气不佳」。例句:

  • I can’t believe I got locked out of the apartment. This is just not my day.
  • I’m sorry, sweetie, I know you studied hard for that test. It just wasn’t your day.
  • It’s not my day. It hasn’t been my day / week / month / year.

3、可以说「I’ve been feeling stuck / (stuck) in a rut / Nothing is going as planned / I need a change」

Rut 是车辙,stuck in a rut = Seemingly trapped or stuck in a mundane, non-changing pattern of life, work, or personal behavior,「(主要是心理上)困住了」。注意 Rut 还有「发情期」的意思, eg. hunt deers during rutting season, 在鹿的发情期狩猎。

4、可以说「I’ve been on an emotional roller coaster.

Roller coaster 是过山车。Emotional roller coaster 就是「情绪波动、如过山车」。

5、可以简单说「Off

Off 的一层含义是「below the usual standard or rate」,「不如平常」、「(脑子)不大在线」,或「characterized by performing or feeling worse than usual; unsatisfactory or inadequate」,比如:

  • I’m having an off day today – I just can’t seem to do anything right!
  • I’m a little off today, not really feeling very good.
  • Even the greatest athletes have off days.

6、可以考虑「Brain is not functioning

My brain is not functioning today — 我今天脑子不大好使/有点犯糊涂了。

7、可以考虑「I‘m / My brain is mixed up / messed up」,有「(脑子)糊涂了/一团糟」的意思。
