恒星口语讲堂:"逼婚"用英语怎么说?

Source: 恒星英语学习网  Onion  2010-06-01  我要投稿   论坛   Favorite  
如果不出现结婚对象,只是表示“被逼结婚”的话,还可以说 force into a marriage,在英国 Citizens Advice Bureau 的网站上关于 forced marriage 有这样的陈述:It is a criminal offence to force a person to marry under duress. If you are afraid that you may be forced into a marriage in this country, the police should be contacted. This is also the case where there is concern that another person may be forced into a marriage. If you are afraid that you may be forced into marriage overseas, you should, before travelling, contact the address below for advice.

“逼婚”除了用force 表示“强迫”外,还可以用make。如果你说“make”一个人做什么事情,就有“迫使”人家的意思,例如:Why People want to make you marry?

那如果是因为怀孕了而被迫结婚要怎么说呢?就是 shotgun marriage,也叫做 shotgun wedding。Shotgun 的意思是霰弹枪,shotgun wedding 原指女方拿枪逼男方结婚,如今则指因为怀孕而被迫结婚的婚礼,也叫 military wedding。
