A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
可怕
Awful

巴黎做得对的地方是，让开车出行变得很糟糕，而让乘坐公共交通工具或自行车出行变得非常容易。
I'm not a good time-off person. I'm awful on holiday. It comes from having that period when I didn't work. That really was the worst bit.

I had an awful first quarter but I picked it up. To all you single guys out there, it's not how you start the date, it's how you finish it sir. A lot of people can, you know, start the date with flowers and candy, but if you don't finish the date - you know what I mean?
我第一节打得很糟糕，但我又振作起来了。对所有单身男士来说，重要的不是如何开始约会，而是如何结束。很多人可以用鲜花和糖果开始约会，但是如果你没有结束约会，你知道我的意思吗?
