let one’s hair down千万不要直译为“把头发放下来”。这个短语的由来是这样的,17世纪时期,英国女性多留长发,她们外出参加活动的时候,习惯盘起头发,做出各种造型,晚上回到家后会取下发夹,把头发放下来,让它舒舒服服发的披在肩上。引申为“卸下包袱,彻底放松,不拘礼节”。
【例句】
It's wonderful to let your hair down at the weekend after you've been working hard all week.
辛苦工作一周后在周末能不拘礼节真是太好了。
That kind of music will surely let your hair down.
这种音乐一定能让你放松下来。
