Why the long face?

an informal expression to ask why someone looks sad or upset

(非正式)询问某人为何失落或难过的表达方式

long face就像我们中文中常说的:拉着个脸,拉长脸,板着脸...总之都是脸色不大好看的形容方式。英语口语中人们就会用Why the long face?来问你是不是最近有什么烦心事儿。

A: Why the long face?

B: It's difficult to explain.

很难解释

A: Don't think too much. Maybe tomorrow will be different.

别想太多,也许明天你的想法又不一样了。
