你的男朋友給你買過(guò)“消氣戒指”嗎？

約會(huì)遲到？說(shuō)話不算數(shù)？打游戲忘了你？男朋友總是有各種各樣的原因會(huì)惹女友生氣，但是，如果他能送你一枚enragement ring（消氣戒指），估計(jì)大多數(shù)女生都會(huì)陰轉(zhuǎn)晴吧！

An enragement ring is a piece of jewelry, typically a ring that is purchased for a girlfriend in an effort to make her happy after you have made her angry.

“消氣戒指”就是男朋友在惹女友生氣后買來(lái)給女友讓她開(kāi)心的一件首飾，通常是一個(gè)戒指。

Boyfriends are likely to make their girlfriends angry all the time. Apparently oral apologies are not sincere enough. Thus buying their girlfriends an enragement ring, a gift that they couldn’t resist, would distract their attention and make them happy while help boys pull through. However, a ring might not be enough if the boy made a huge mistake.

惹女朋友生氣一定是男生身上經(jīng)常發(fā)生的事，光是口頭道歉顯然缺乏誠(chéng)意，因此如果給女朋友買一個(gè)像首飾這種讓她毫無(wú)抵御力的小禮物，即能轉(zhuǎn)移她的注意力，讓她心情愉悅，也能讓你度過(guò)她生氣的“難關(guān)”，何樂(lè)而不為呢？當(dāng)然如果你犯了大錯(cuò)，那一個(gè)小戒指可能就不夠咯。

Example:

A: Wow, your girlfriend is pretty pissed that you were out all night and didn't call her. What are you going to do?

B: Yeah, you're right, she's pretty mad. I might have to buy her an 'enragement ring' to smooth things over.

A: 哇，你女朋友一定對(duì)你在外過(guò)夜沒(méi)給她打電話很生氣。你準(zhǔn)備怎么辦？

B：你說(shuō)的沒(méi)錯(cuò)，她非常生氣。我可能要給她買一個(gè)消氣戒指讓她平息一下怒火了。
