用中文说一个人有钱有很多说法,比如可以说这个人很富有,稍微戏谑一点可以说这人是个土豪等等,那么“有钱”用英语如何说呢?
1. 比较常用的表达:
① Affluent adj.富裕的,富足的; n.富裕的人; 网络:富有;富;富人、
② ②well-off adj.有钱的
Her family was very well-off.
她的家庭非常富有。

2. 也有不太礼貌的表达:
He inherited the family business - he must be loaded!
他继承了家族产业——肯定富得流油!
Theyre filthy rich.
这些人都太特么有钱了。
3. 近几年又兴起了一个说法——the one percent,“财富塔顶端的那1%”:
Its easy to get by in society when youre part of the one percent.
这个社会就是富人好办事儿。
4. 如果一个人从小就有钱,可以用privileged:
She had a privileged upbringing.
她是含着金汤匙长大的。
5. “新富”和“承袭祖荫”也各有说法:
These new money millionaires have been coming in and building these huge mansions in the area.
新晋的百万富翁们不断涌入,在那个地方建豪宅。
She comes from an old money family.
