三思而行用英语怎么说？

中 → 英 · 俚语习语

think twice before acting

「三思而行」的英文是「think twice before acting」，劝人别冲动、动手前先掂量后果时用，语气偏口语。

详解

字面即「想三次再动手」，源自《论语》「季文子三思而后行」，现在多用于劝朋友别莽撞。口语里常缩成 think twice，也可说 look before you leap。注意别直译成 think three times，英语母语者听着别扭。

Don't sign anything yet—think twice before acting.

先别急着签任何东西，三思而行。

He should have thought twice before acting, but he just went for it.

他本该三思而行，结果还是一头冲了上去。
