Get lost 是什么意思?迷路,也可能是很不客气的“走开”

Get lost 可以表示迷路或丢失,但单独喊 Get lost! 就是在粗鲁地赶人。说自己迷路要用 I got lost,单说 I lost 会改变意思。

Get lost 表示迷路或不见了;作为感叹句时,Get lost! 则是不客气地让别人走开。第一种意思既可以用于陌生地方迷路的人,也可以用于旅途中丢失的物品:my luggage got lost。第二种意思语气很重,常出现在争吵中。礼貌地请别人别打扰,可以说 Could you leave me alone, please?

修改原因

修改前On my first day in London I lost near the station.

修改后On my first day in London I got lost near the station.

很容易直接说 I lost,但 lose 可以表示失去某物或输掉,因此 I lost 听起来像“我输了”。表达迷路,要用 got lost。

Cambridge Dictionary

I'm lost 表示现在不知道自己在哪里。I got lost 则说明在某个时候迷了路:We got lost on the way to the hotel。Get lost in a book 又表示读书读得完全入迷。

动手练习

got lost — 行李箱不是失去了某样东西,而是它本身不见了,因此需要 got lost。My suitcase lost 会像在说行李箱丢了什么东西,或者输掉了。
