在汉语翻译成英语时，某些场合的汉语的“白”字虽然是颜色，但英语应词中并没有white一词。
如：***（Chinese cabbage）、白熊（polar）、白蚁（termite）.但在另一些场合，白字与颜色毫无关系，表示徒劳（in vain）。如：白费事（all in vain , a waste of time and energy）,白送（give away, free of charge ,for nothing）.此外，白字还可以表示“单纯的”“不掺杂的”。如白开水（boiled water）,白烧肉（plain boiled pork）.在某些场合甚至很难概括出某种涵义。如坦白（to confess, to make a clean breast of something ）,***（idiot ）,白话（vernacular）.应当记住的是：“白”字并不都是“white”
Blue(蓝色)在英语中通常用来表示不愉快。
如：
in a blue mood 和h***ing the blues表示“情绪低落”“忧郁”“沮丧”“烦闷”；
在a blue Mon(倒霉的星期一)中，“blue”也表示类似的意思----过了愉快、幸福的周未，星期一又要上班或上学了，所以情绪不佳。
如：it was blue Monday and he just didn，t feel like going back to work.倒霉的星期一，又该上班了，他真的不愿意。
在美国英语中blue book（蓝皮书）是刊载知名人士，尤其是***高级官员名字的书。
h***e a green thumb 擅长园艺

这可能是你要找的外国人的说法: the ***le in one's hand. 或者 the ***le in one's eyes.
问题五：你是我的掌上明珠英语怎么说？ You are the ***le of my eye.

有趣的英语短语如下：
1. To walk on air 洋洋得意：
在形容一个人很高兴，很得意的时候，中文经常说这个人走路轻飘飘，好像腾云驾雾一样。英文里也有类似的说法，就是to walk on air。

California. 苏珊收到加州大学正式通知书录取她为研究生以后，她就一直很得意洋洋的。
2. To walk the plank 被解雇：
Plank就是很厚的木板。据说，过去海盗拦截船只后会逼迫没有利用价值的人们走到一块木板上，然后将他们推进海里。To walk the plank的说法由此得来，现在多指“被除名”。
When you take over the store, think twice about making the
manager walk the plank. It may not be easy to find another one as honest and efficient as he is.?
你接管店铺的时候，解雇经理这个问题要三思而行。因为要找一个像他那样老实又有效率的经理恐怕不是那么容易的。
