Hello and welcome to Authentic Real English. I'm Neil and joining me in this programme is Feifei.

Feifei
大家好！

Neil
Beautiful day today, isn't it? Blazing sunshine…Aah,  so warm.

Feifei
Yes it is, and luckily for you. 你现在倒是可以下班了。

Neil
Yep! But you have to stay here till the evening on the late shift. Ahhh I'm off to the park to enjoy the sun. I'd better buy some sun cream, eh?

Feifei
Don't rub it in!

Neil
OK. See you later.

Feifei
Neil, 你这是怎么了？What's happened to you? You look like a lobster!

Neil
It's very hot and sunny out there.

Feifei
那你怎么不抹防晒霜呢？What about the sun cream?

Neil
You told me not to rub it in, Feifei!

Feifei
OK, I think I need to explain something. 我们用表达 to rub something in 来告诫他人不要总说别人不想听的事情，不要故意触人痛处。所以我刚才对你说“don't rub it in”的意思是“我下不了班，所以你不要总在我面前提下班去公园晒太阳的事儿”。

Neil
Ah. So I actually should have rubbed in this sun cream… Let's hear some examples. 

Examples
Don't rub it in. I know you beat me at tennis but you don't have to keep mentioning the score.

Carlos got into Oxford but I didn't. That's bad enough, but he keeps rubbing it in by talking about it all the time.

Feifei
这里是 BBC 英语教学的《地道英语》节目。我们正在学习一个日常对话中使用频率非常高的表达 to rub it in，它的意思是“反复讲别人不爱听的事情，触人痛楚”。

Neil
I want to forget that I've got such a terrible sunburn.

Feifei
Well I won't rub it in and talk about the sun cream that you should have…

Neil
You should have rubbed in. Thanks Feifei. Ouch…

Feifei
Bye-bye!

Neil
Bye!
