輕鬆日記商務職場篇 第114期:別把腳蹺在椅子上
核心句型：
Don't prop your feet up.
不要把腳蹺在椅子上。
prop your feet up直譯過來就是：“把你的腿撐起來”，這個短語的正確意思是：“把腳蹺在椅子上”。因此，當美國人說"Don't prop your feet up."時，他/她要表達的意思就是:"You'd better keep a good sitting posture."、"Put your feet down from the chair."、"Don't put your feet on the chair or the desk."。
情景對白：
Benjamin: Terry, we have clients here. Don't prop your feet up. That's not polite.

②Nobody is here. It's OK.

③It's none of your business.
