  • 工作学习 / 外语学习 / 跟大夫说孩子走路不稳,容易摔倒。怎么说? 好象"He easily falls""He is easy to fall" 都不合适, 感觉根本就不能用easy这个词。
    • He has a tendency to fall.
      • I will use this one.
    • he is wobbly when he walks.
    • He doesn't balance himself well for some reason.
    • You can say "his gait is unsteady" or "he has poor balance". And then tell the doctor how manys falls he has in the past week.
      • nice, thanks for sharing with us here.
    • 关键是中英语中"容易"一词的用法区别:英语中easy好象只修饰褒义的词, 而汉语中"容易"也可修饰贬义的词,如"容易生病","容易摔倒"等,这种情况下不能用easy,用什么最好?
      • prone (to lose balance)
        • I think this is the best translation so far...
      • 某某 IS FALLING DOWN A LOT .问了我儿子,供参考。
