Here is a phrase that is not praise: Back-Seat Driver
这里有一个不是赞美的短语:爱指手画脚的人
Listen to these two people talk about driving:
让我们来听一听这两个人谈论开车。
Adam's mother made him so nervous every time he took her to the store.
每次阿曼达带他的妈妈去商店时,都会非常紧张。
You're not kidding. She would tell him where to turn, how fast to go, and which road to take.
确实。她会告诉他在哪里转弯,开多快,走哪条路。
She was such a "back-seat driver"!
她真是一个爱指手画脚的人。

爱指手画脚的人

What does this phrase come from?

这个短语是怎么来的?
When cars were first invented, rich owners would often ride in the back seat.
当汽车刚被发明时,富人会坐在后座。
They would tell their drivers where to go and how to drive.
他们会告诉司机去哪里、怎么开。
Now, when someone is a "back-seat driver", he is interfering, and it is considered to be bad behavior.
现在,如果某人是个爱指手画脚的人,那么他就是在干预某事,这会被认为是一个不好的行为。
And that's English in a Minute!
