“开绿灯”英语怎么说?

众所周知,交通信号灯(traffic lights/ traffic signals)有“红灯停,绿灯行(The green light allows traffic to proceed. The red signal prohibits any traffic from proceeding.)”之说。

“开绿灯”指交通路口打开准许行人车辆通过的信号(give the go-ahead signal,give the green light),后多用于比喻“允许某事(allow someone to do something or something to happen)”,或“提供方便条件(make easier for)”。



  • 官僚主义总是为腐败大开绿灯。
    Bureaucracy always gives the green light to corruption.
  • 我们永远不会给赌博开绿灯。
    We‘ll never give the green light to gambling.
