“时过境迁”常见的英文表述有:“Times have changed.” 、“Circumstances alter cases.” 、“Time passes and circumstances change.”
“Times have changed.” 是一个比较直接和常用的表达,意思是“时代已经改变了”,强调时间带来的变化。
例如:“We can't do things the same way as before. Times have changed.”(我们不能像以前那样做事了。时过境迁。)
“Circumstances alter cases.” 侧重于说明情况的变化导致事物的不同。
比如:“Don't judge by the past. Circumstances alter cases.” (别用过去来评判,时过境迁了。)
“Time passes and circumstances change.” 则清晰地指出了时间的流逝和情况的改变。
像:“After so many years, time passes and circumstances change.” (这么多年过去了,时过境迁。)
