●今日习语 – Idiom Today

Save for a rainy day

●词源典故 Etymology and Origin

释义：put something aside for a future time in which it may be needed; to save some of your money in case there are serious problems in the future.

这个短语直译“为雨天准备”，其实就是我们说的“未雨绸缪”。“Rainy day”就是下雨天。它在英语中通常有“贫困时期、困难、不幸的日子”的意思，因此save sth for a rainy day指的是“以备不时之需、有备无患”。在《剑桥英语词典》中，它可以直接搭配为 save money for a rainy day，释义为to save money for a time when it might be needed unexpectedly，即存钱以备不时之需。
