오늘의 영어표현은 Blessing in Disguise입니다. ‘Blessing in disguise’ is something good that isn't recognized at first. 변장한 축복이라…뭔가 말이 알듯 말 듯하죠? 하지만 Jason과 Mike의 대화에서 알 수 있듯이 처음에는 불행한 것 같았지만 알고 보니까 좋은 일인 경우와 또 아주 안 좋아 보였지만 결국에는 긍정적인 결과가 나올 때를 말하는 것입니다. 사자성어로 말하면 전화위복 혹은 새옹지마 정도가 되겠네요. 어떤 식으로 사용할 수 있는지 예문으로 알아볼까요? Mom's illness was a blessing in disguise; it brought the family together for the first time in years. 엄마가 편찮으셨던 건 불행한 일이었지만, 몇 년 만에 가족들이 한자리에 모일 수 있었던건 좋은 점이었어. 라고 말할 수 있답니다.
오늘의 표현, ‘Blessing in disguise’꼭 기억하시고요. Now we’ll listen to this conversation for the last time.
