　　承认你另一半所取得的成就对你而言意义重大。无论其成就大小，你只需告诉你的爱人他是你的骄傲。达成目标是极具挑战性的任务，我们需要他人的鼓舞。各种各样的激励格外促使我们前进。说句“我以你为傲”并不损失什么，但这些字句却能使一个人变得更积极。

　　3. “I believe in you”

　　Be thankful for what your partner does for you. Being grateful is very important. Let your significant other know that you appreciate his efforts. It does not really matter how small the thing is.

　　对你的伴侣为你做的一切心怀感激。感激之心极为重要，让你重要的另一半知晓你欣赏他为你付出的努力。事情大小并不重要，关键是你要明白：他为你做的所有这些事都是为了让你开心。别把所有事都想得理所应当，（要知道）有很多人，没什么人关心爱护他们。

　　让我们一起来聊聊那些表示‘感谢’的短语：

　　文章中一共出现了三组：Be thankful for something, be grateful for something and appreciate somebody’s efforts.

　　除此之外，表示‘感谢、感激’的表达还有：

　　A) Gratitude⁴: the feeling of being gratefulPhrases： Express or show your gratitude to someoneIn gratitude for something

　　Eg: we would like to express our gratitude to everyone for their generous donations.

　　我们想要对每一位捐赠者致以最诚挚的谢意

　　B) Be obliged to somebody

　　Eg: I am much obliged to you (Used to thank someone very politely)请大家注意区别：Be/Feel obliged to do something，表示‘to have to do something because of a legal, professional or social rule.’有责任义务做某事Eg: Members of parliament are obliged to declare all their financial interests.

　　议会成员有义务申报个人的所有财产状况

　　Take somebody or something for granted

　　Definition：To expect that somebody or something will always be there when you need them or never think how important or useful they are. 表示：‘认为…理所当然’

　　Eg: One of the problems with relationships is that after a while you begin to take each other for granted5. “You are handsome”

　　5. “你好帅”

　　You might at first think that this kind of expression is too shallow and primitive⁵. We don’t judge books by their cover, do we? Well, the truth is that we do pay attention to people’s appearance. Men need to know that they are desired. If you see that your man looks good, then why not tell him that he is attractive?

　　你开始可能会认为这样的表达太肤浅、太古老。我们不以貌取人，不是么？其实呢，我们确实会在意人们的长相。男人需要知道他们是为人们所期望的。如果你觉得你的男人很帅，那为什么不告诉他，他很有吸引力呢？

　　最后，咱们来聊聊那些夸人好看的话：

　　A) 最为常见的：You look good; attractive, handsome‘诶哟，不错哦~’

　　B) 升级版：You are gorgeous or amazing!

　　C) Local 版：You are a good catch! 你很迷人 & You are polished 你变帅了6. “You are so talented”

　　6. “你太有才了”

　　Talents and skills are all our strengths. How good is he at cooking? Maybe your man loves gardening or taking pictures while travelling. Or, which is even more important, he is a professional who knows his job better than anyone else! No doubt there are plenty of activities he is good at – that's why you love that person. Acknowledge his talents and tell him that what he does makes you happy and means a lot to you.

　　天赋和技术都是我们的优点。他有多擅长烧菜？也许他热爱园艺，或是喜欢在旅游时摄影。或是更重要的，他很专业，比任何人都更了解自己的工作！毋庸质疑，你的另一半有很多擅长的东西，这便是你爱他的原因。承认他有才华，让他知道他所做的事让你开心，且对你意义重大。
