“不用急”用英语怎么说?
·1. (There’s) no rush.·
我们之前看过rush /rʌʃ/ 作为动词的用法,它可以用作名词(用作单数名词或者不可数),表示a situation in which you are in a hurry and need to do things quickly,着急,紧急,需要快速做事情。
常用搭配:
▶ There's no rush.
类似固定表达,used to tell someone that they do not have to do something quickly or soon,用来告诉别人这件事情不着急,可以慢慢做,等于中文的“没事,不急”,口语里经常省略说成No rush,同义表达还有There's no hurry.
A: Do you need the book back soon? I can return it tomorrow.
这本书你急着要吗?我可以明天还你。
B: No rush, just whenever you're done with it.
不急,你什么时候看完再还。
A: Do you need these files right away?
这些文件你急着要吗?
B: No. The deadline is next month, so there's really no rush.
不,截止日期是下个月,一点都不急。
▶ What's the rush?
急什么呢?
例:You're packing for a trip that's two months away. What's the rush?
两个月后的行程你现在就开始打包东西。急什么呢?
A: Come on, hurry up! We need to go!
快点,快点!我们得走了!
B: But we still have an hour. What's the rush?
还有一个小时。急什么?

例:I did my homework in a rush last night, so I made a lot of mistakes.

▶ be in a rush (to do sth)
急着要做某事,赶着去做某事

·2. Take your time.·
固定短语,表示said to mean that you can spend as much time as you need in doing something,告诉别人慢慢来,不用急,需要花多少时间就花多少时间吧。
There's no rush侧重的是事情本身不急,比如说项目时间很宽裕,而take your time是祈使句,告诉别人慢慢来,不用匆匆忙忙的,实际使用时两个短语意思很接近。
A: Sorry, the traffic is so bad. I might be late for the concert.
抱歉,路上很堵,音乐会我可能会晚到。
B: It's OK. Take your time. I'll wait near the entrance.
