编辑:chaxungu时间:2022-10-13 04:13:57分类:英语技巧

“未雨绸缪”,汉语成语,意思是趁着天没下雨,先修缮房屋门窗(repair the house before it rains)。比喻事先做好准备工作,预防意外的事发生(take precautions beforehand,provide against the future,save (something) for a rainy day)。

例句:

我打算未雨绸缪,作好应对准备。

I'm trying to look ahead at what might happen and be ready to handle it.

目前还未出现这种情形,但我们需要未雨绸缪。

This has not happened yet. But we need to prepare.
