    초중급이라면 꼭 알아야 할 stand의 활용법 3개

    (I can't stand~, My offer still stands, Time stands still)

    1: I can't stand ~. ~를 못 참겠어 / (견디기 힘들 정도로) 정말 싫어.
    2: My offer still stands. 아직 내 제안은 유효해.
    - I'd love to join you for a drink if the invitation still stands.
    3: Time stands still. 시간이 멈춰버린 것 같아.


    1: stand (특히 부정문에 쓰여서 싫어함을 강조) 참다, 견디다
    *Collins 사전: If you cannot stand something, you cannot bear it or tolerate it.
    *Collins 사전: If you cannot stand someone or something, you dislike them very strongly.

    come on, hurry.
    I can't stand the smell.

    <고수의 향을 못 참을 정도로 안 좋아함>
    I can't stand cilantro.

    A: Why did you leave in the middle of the meeting?
    B: I just couldn't stand his condescending tone.
    *캠브릿지 사전 condescending: treating someone as if

    you are more important or more intelligent than them (거들먹거리는, 잘난 체하는)

    I didn't mean to be condescending.

    She can't stand Tennessee.

    I can't stand her.
    I can't stand this new system. I can't find anything.

     


    2: stand (이미 했던 제안, 결정 등이 아직도) 유효하다/변함없다.
    *Collins 사전: If a decision, law, or offer stands, 

    it still exist and has not been changed or cancelled.

    My offer still stands.

    +++
    on the table (상정이되어 있는 것처럼) 논의, 고려대상인
    *캠브릿지 사전: being discussed or considered

    That offer is still on the table.

    Is that offer still on the table? 그 제안 아직도 유효해?

    Everything is on the table at this point. 모든 가능성을 다 열어두고 있다.

    off the table 논외/고려 대상이 아냐
    *macmillan 사전: If a proposal or offer is off the table, 

    it is no longer officially available or is not being considered.

    Let's take that off the table for now.
    +++

    I'd love to join you for a drink if the invitation still stands.

    My former comment still stands.
    Well, my former comment still stands.

    Now, that position still stands.

    A: Well, my former comment still stands.
    B: Then let's just agree to disagree.

    ~still stands: ~는 아직 유효해/여전히 변함없어.

    3: Time stands still 시간이 멈춰버린 것 같아.
    *캠브릿지 사전: When time stands still, everything around you seems to stop.

    +++
    still 가만히 있는, 정지한
    *캠브릿지 사전: staying in the same position: not moving.

    Now, stay still. 움직이지 마세요.
    +++

    A: You've been working for eight hours straight.
    B: I know, I feel like time stands still when I'm really focused on work.

    I'm a little fuzzy.
    I've been working 72 hours straight.

    I'm working on a design, time stands still.

    A: How was the seminar?
    B: It was so boring that I felt as if time stood still.

    It's just that moment where time stands still.
