英国人素以“绅士风味”出名，为了礼貌，英国人不得不把white lies挂在嘴边。最新研讨证明，英国人均匀每天要扯谎四次！可是，咱们从这些little lies中却可以学到不少简明简明的地道口语表达。让咱们一同跟着英国人学“揄扬”吧~

Researchers found the average Briton tells on average four lies every day or almost 1500 every year.

研讨发现，每个英国人均匀每天要扯谎四次，或许每年约扯谎1500次。

A spokesman for

OnePoll, which carried out the research of 4,300 adults, said: “As a nation we are obsessed with trying to be nice and not upsetting

people.

该研讨由英国商场查询公司OnePoll策划，共查询了4300位英国成年人。其讲话人对研讨成果标明“咱们民族太讲究礼貌了，（扯谎是为了）不想让别人感到不适。”

“Often little white lies can paper over what we actually want to say. Most of these were considered either completely harmless or tactically necessary depending on the situation in which they are delivered.”

“我们说的这些好心的小鬼话是为了点缀咱们真实想说的话。大大都小鬼话都是完全无害的，或许说这些小鬼话是在特定情况下有必要用的战术办法。”

He added: “It was sad to see a string of compliments in the top 50, but once again in many cases perhaps it is better to flatter with a fib than destroy someone with the truth.”

这位讲话人还标明，“在我们最常说的50句鬼话中，有许多是恭维话，这不是一件功德。可是，需要再次偏重的是，与其说真话而损伤到别人，不如说些可以让人高兴的小鬼话，这样做如同更适合。”
