释义:
I can tell you... 可以说……也是……
比起对某事实给予断言,不如加上 I can('t) tell you that 的包装,委婉地传达自己的意向。不过 I can('t) tell you what (how) 等则表示“我(不)可以告诉你某事”。经常会用到 I can('t) tell you that (可以那么说)的句型。
例句:
I can tell you that the prices of cars are a bit high.
我跟你说,汽车的价格有点高。
I can tell you what he's going to find.
我可以告诉你他会找到什么。
I can't tell you how sorry I am.
真不知道怎么表达我的歉意。
对话:
A: I really need to make some money fast.
我非常需要一些救济的钱。
B: I can't tell you how to make money.
我可不能告诉你怎么赚钱。
