在我每周訂閱的英文片語裡,
有一周,出現了--The bee's knees--蜜蜂的膝蓋,
一直沒有時間好好研讀一下它的意思是啥~

剛剛洗澡時,
又想起這件事,
仔細讀了EMAIL,
哦~是Excellent - the highest quality的意思.

但為什麼呢?
往下看....
Bees carry pollen back to the hive in sacks on their legs. 
It is tempting to explain this phrase as alluding to the concentrated goodness to be found around the bee's knee. 
嗯~
看圖說故事吧~

多麼辛苦的蜜蜂啊~
膝蓋上的甜甜花蜜,
是它辛苦換來的,
回到蜂巢,
必也是論功行賞的依據,
所以啊~
The bee's knees就被引申成了...
Excellent - the highest quality

有意思~
