Once In A Blue Moon

中秋前,再來一個關於月亮的英文諺語 “once in a blue moon”。

Moon 月亮在晚上看上去,多是淡黃色的。在罕有的情況下,月兒在某一個角度用肉眼看會呈淺藍色。故 once in a blue moon 解作罕有一次。

【例句】

After I graduated, I only see my school friends once in a blue moon.
畢業後,我已絕少見我的校友。

Jack leaves his house only once in a blue moon.  What makes him out of town today?
傑克鮮有離家,今天是甚麼把他請到鎮外?
