<< review queue entry 78916 - submitted by 'richwarm' >> 1) 想得美 is a verb phrase that often follows 你 or 他 etc. So I propose phrasing the definition likewise as a verb phrase: "to have an unrealistically optimistic expectation". Admittedly, this sounds clunky compared to 想得美, but I couldn't come up with something both pithier and correct. 2) "in your dreams!" and "You wish!" - it's not necessarily "you" (你); it can be he (他), for example. "I wish that were so"? - 想得美 is usually not something done by the speaker; the subject is usually 2nd or 3rd person (you / he / she etc). - 想得美 is a verb phrase, and its grammatical subject ("I" or "you" etc) is not part of its meaning. - 想得美 is more like *expecting* than "wishing". 3) Ex. 癩蝦蟆想吃天鵝肉 比喻痴心妄想，不自量力。 [例]癩蝦蟆想吃天鵝肉，想得美！ 說夢話 在睡夢中說話。比喻不切實際的幻想。 [例]你昨天晚上又說夢話了︱別淨說夢話了︱想得美，在說夢話吧。 B 哎，如果只涨工资，不涨价就好了。 A 你还真是想得美。 一位台灣來的女友嫁給德國醫生，老公在鄉下開診所，據說是方圓50公里內的唯一一家，生意興隆，整天病人川流不息，我看了十分羨慕：「你們一定數鈔票數到手軟！」女友卻搖搖頭苦笑：「妳想得美咧，累個半死，賺不到什麼錢。」 - 初中生：他想得美地认为他可以在比赛中取得冠军。 - 大学生：他想得美地以为他可以在毕业后立即找到一份高薪工作。 想法過於樂觀美好，常用以表示事情絕不可能。 如：「什麼！跟他借錢？你想得美呀！」 |
