说起“羊”，大家会想到什么呢, 还记得当时被喜羊羊霸占了的电视, 一直纠结灰太狼为什么一直没吃到他们, 羊还是非常可爱的动物

外有小羊肖恩内有喜羊羊

不过听到英语“You are like sheep”，可别以为是在夸你像小绵羊一样可爱，这其实是句损人的话哦。

like sheep是一个固定短语。

If people behave like sheep, they all do what the others are doing, without thinking for themselves.

翻译过来就是盲从，没有主见，即墙头草。

You are like sheep.=你真没主见。

如果跟朋友聚会，问去哪、吃啥，人家都回你个Whatever或Anyway（随便），你就可以说“You are like sheep.”

例句：

Most of the people follow the media like sheep and never question their truthfulness.

大多数人盲目的相信媒体的报道，从不怀疑它们的真实性。

此外sheep还有胆小鬼的意思，意思大多都是不好的，所以英文里听到用sheep来形容人，就先别往好处想了。

例句：

Are you a man or are you a sheep?

你是个男子汉，还是个懦夫？

The sheep always say they are careful, the cheapskate always say they are scanty.

胆小鬼往往自称心细，吝啬鬼往往自称节省。

英语里还有许多关于sheep的表达，并且都不能简单的从“羊”理解，赶紧往下看，认识他们吧。
