【绝望的主妇】“说到底，能让你的生活往前走的，只有你自己。”
英语老师瑶瑶
【句子】... but at the end of the day, she is still a woman, just like me. 【Desperate Housewives S2E10】
【发音】/bət/ /æt/ /ðiː/ /end/ /əv/ /ðə/ /deɪ/ /ʃiː/ /ɪz/ /stɪl/ /ə/ /ˈwʊm.ən/ /dʒʌst/ /laɪk/ /miː/
【发音技巧】but at连读+闪音；at the不完全爆破；the end当中the重读；end of连读；still a连读；just like me两处不完全爆破；
【翻译】但是毕竟，她还是个女人，跟我一样。
【适用场合】
今天我们来重点学习这个表达，叫做at the end of the day；
这个短语的字面意思是：“在一天要结束的时候，”
eg: I will have an answer at the end of the day.
今天傍晚我会得到一个答案。
eg: I'm usually tired at the end of the day.
一天结束时我通常很累。
但是事实情况是，在口语运用场合中，它相对来说很少被理解成字面意思。
更多的情况下，它的意思是ultimately，或者看这条英文解释when everything else has been taken into consideration，所以可以理解成“最终；终究；说到底”的含义；
eg: At the end of the day, family is the most important.
说到底，家人才是最重要的。
eg: At the end of the day, we all want the same thing.
归根到底，我们想要的都一样。
eg: At the end of the day, it's just a job.
说到底，这不过是份工作。
eg: That's just how I feel about your girlfriend. At the end of the day, your relationship is your business.
我对你女朋友就是这种感觉，不过说到底，你们的感情是你们自己的事。
eg: At the end of the day you will have to decide where you want to live.
归根到底，还是得你自己决定想住在哪里。
eg: At the end of the day the only person who can take your life forward from here is you.
说到底，能让你的生活从这里往前走的，只有你自己。
