BBC地道英语 – Be joined at the hip

Be joined at the hip

Be joined at the hip:
(Of two people) be inseparable.

“Be joined at the hip(臀部连在一起)” 实际所表达的意思是 “某人和自己的一个朋友总是形影不离,密不可分”,因此人们经常看到这两个人在一起。它也暗示若见到其中一个人单独行动是很反常的。

例句
My best friend from high school and I did everything together – we were joined at the hip.
我上高中时最好的朋友和我曾经做什么事情都一起,那时我们俩形影不离。

Where is Tom? You two are normally joined at the hip.
汤姆在哪儿?你们俩通常是形影不离的。

Whenever you see Sarah, you know Lucy isn’t far away – they’re joined at the hip, those two!
你一看到莎拉,就知道露西肯定在不远的地方,她们俩真是密不可分!
