"It didn't go anywhere." 是很值得学的口语说法, 意思是 "Nothing happened between us." 什么事也没发生. 比如说你跟一个美眉打情骂俏好一段时间了, 但就是无法跨越普通朋友的鸿沟. 别人问你有什么进展没有, 你就可以回答说, "It didn't go anywhere." 或是也可以这么说, "It didn't work out."
为什么说它是很值得学呢? 因为我知道这句话大多数的人听得懂, 但说不出来. 你可能会说 "Nothing happened between us." 但我想你大概不会说, "It didn't go anywhere." 吧! 以此类推, 你要问人家「有没有什么进展?」最口语的说法是什么? 想个三秒钟. 1,2,3 时间到! 答案是, "How did it go?" 答出来了没? 因为你说 "How did it go?" 所以别人正好可以接, "It didn't go anywhere."
