poor mouth 哭穷鬼
分类: 实用英语
Poor mouth refers to someone who continually complains about a lack of money, often as an excuse for not contributing to charities, paying bills, etc.
Poor mouth指那些老抱怨自己没钱、并以此为借口逃避付账单或者为慈善事业捐款的人,我们可以称之为“哭穷鬼”。
For example:
She is a real poor mouth. She has a brand new car in her driveway, but always delays paying her rent.
她是个不折不扣的哭穷鬼。她家门口停着崭新的车,但总是拖着不付房租。
