본문에서 Jason이 제게 “What’s going on with you? You’ve been angry the whole day. That’s not like you so snap out of it. “무슨 일 있니? 하루 종일 화가 나있잖아. 너답지 않으니까, 기운을 내”라고 하자, 저는 “I’m trying to snap out of it but I can’t! I’m just having a horrible day. “나도 기운을 내려고 하는 데, 잘 안 돼. 정말 끔찍한 하루를 보내고 있거든.” 이라고 말합니다.

Today’s expression is snap out of it. Snap out of it means to force yourself to stop behaving in a negative way or to stop from experiencing something, especially something unpleasant. Snap out of it은 ‘기운을 내’ 혹은 ‘정신 좀 차려’라는 뜻입니다. 그러니까 축 처져있는 사람에게 기운을 내라고 한다던가, 쓸데없는 생각이나 몽상에 빠져있는 사람에게 정신을 차리라고 할 때 쓰는 표현이죠.
In today’s conversation Jason notices that I am very upset, which is very unlike me. So he tells me to snap out of it. 오늘 본문에서 제가 평소와 달리 하루 종일 화가 난 모양입니다. 이를 본 Jason은 저를 보고 기운을 내라고 하네요. “That’s not like you so snap out of it.”라고요.
