Feifei
Hello,大家好,欢迎收听 BBC 英语教学的《地道英语》节目,我是冯菲菲。

Neil
And I’m Neil. 

Feifei
All well, Neil? 

Neil
Not great, Feifei. 

Feifei
What’s up? 

Neil
I’m just so done with writing this report. 

Feifei
You’re done with it? You’ve finished? 

Neil
I wish. No, the opposite. Lots more to do. 

Feifei
Neil 说他“so done with”一份报告,可是他并不是想表达“写完了”的意思。So you’re not done yet?

Neil
No, sadly. If you say you’re ‘so done with’ something – it means you are irritated and bored by it! Often it’s a task that you don’t want to do.

Feifei
原来是这样,在英语里,当我们说“so done with”的时候,并不是说“完成了一件事情或任务”,而是感叹这件事情特别枯燥、无聊,让人厌倦,再也不想干了,就好比汉语里所说的“受够了”。举个例子,我可以说:“I’m so done with recording with Neil.”。

Neil
You could say it, Feifei. But it wouldn’t be true!

Feifei
Of course it’s not true. Let’s hear some examples. 

Examples
I need a new job. I’m so done with delivering pizza.

I need to get to bed earlier. I’m so done with feeling like a zombie every day.

I’m so done with learning Hungarian. The grammar is so hard! 

Feifei
So Neil, do you need some help with the report?

Neil
Ah, that’s kind. I just need to sit down, focus, and write the thing. It’s just boring.

Feifei
我在做一个特无聊的表格。I’m so done with it. 我也受够了。 

Neil
Tell you what. Let’s work hard all afternoon and then treat ourselves to dinner. 

Feifei
Done! Which means, of course, that I agree to your suggestion.

Neil
Perfect. Bye for now.

Feifei
See you later!
