---It's pouring/coming down in buckets outside.

真是倾盆大雨呀。

---Yes. I got soaked when I came back from the market.

是啊，从超市回来，我的衣服都湿透了。

---I hate such nasty weather. For me, I'd rather stay at home and do some reading.

我讨厌这样糟糕的天气，我宁愿待在家里看看书好了。

平时想形容雨下得很大时，不妨使用上面对话中出现的：

It's pouring/coming down in buckets.

真是倾盆大雨呀。

相似的表达还有：

It rains cats and dogs.

真是倾盆大雨呀。

（这里提醒一下：童鞋们不要因为看到cats and dogs，就把这句话翻译成“天空下着猫和狗”了，这样不仅会引起尴尬，还会引起笑话的）

The rain came down in torrents.

大雨如注。

（torrent有急流的意思，用在这里，可见雨下得有多大了吧）

It was pouring down.

天空下着倾盆大雨。

我们知道怎样形容雨下得很大了，那么怎么用英语表达毛毛细雨呢？

春天来了，携着细雨而来，润物细无声......

---The rain has almost stopped, it's just drizzling now.

雨几乎停了，现在只是在下毛毛雨了。

---Look, the rain has sprouted the seeds overnight.

看，雨一夜就使种子发芽了。

有没有发现怎么用英语表达关于“毛毛细雨”的呢？

It's drizzling now.

现在下起了毛毛细雨。

The rain has become a light drizzle.

雨减弱成毛毛细雨了。
