内容提要：BBC杂志发表了一篇关于美式英语入侵英国的文章，引起了很多英国人的共鸣。读者纷纷发来电子邮件，说出最困扰自己、最让自己恼火的美式英语表达。
47. To "medal"instead of to win a medal. Sets my teeth on edge with a vengeance.
“medal(赢得奖牌)”而不是win a medal。我差点要破口大骂了。
48. "I got it for free" is a pet hate. You got it "free" not "for free". You don't get something cheap and say you got it "for cheap" do you?
“I got it for free(我免费得到它)”是我最讨厌的表达。你是“免费(free)”得到它，而不是“为了免费(for free)”。你不会买到一个便宜的东西，然后说你买到它“为了便宜”，对吧？
49. "Turn that off already". Oh dear.
Turn that off already.(把那个关掉)。天呐！
50. "I could care less" instead of "I couldn't care less" has to be the worst. Opposite meaning of what they're trying to say.
用“I could care less(我一点也不在乎)”，而不是“I couldn't care less”，是我见过最糟糕的表达。与他们想要说的意思完全相反。
