| 释义 |
time ， serve ～： serve one's ～— 1062
serve time 这个短语动词作“坐班房”或“吃官司”讲， serve one's time 这个短语动词作“满师”或“见习期满”讲，不容混淆。
例如：
The blackguard has served time for three years. 这个坏蛋已坐了 3 年牢房。（就是说，已服刑 3 年，快要开释了。）
Your boy has served his time, I suppose. 据我看，你的孩子已可转正了。（不说… served time ），
比较：
He has served time, I suppose. 据我看，他曾坐过牢房。
He has served his time, I suppose. 据我看，他已转正了。
