I have a toothache.
# m" Y( I4 m, t1 T牙痛的时候令人不想开口说话，不想吃东西，很不自在，你可告诉别人：I have a toothache. (我现在牙痛)。牙齿的毛病有很多， 例如：I have a cavity(我有蛀牙) 、 I have sensitive teeth that hurt easily (我的牙齿很敏感，容易受损)、 I need to have a tooth pulled /extracted (我需要拔牙)等。

' f1 y/ q6 ^1 t, xKate: Why re you pulling such strange faces?
% \/ a4 w- A+ x, RRonald: I'm in a lot of pain. I have a toothache.
0 S" f5 X* a+ \3 KKate: Well stop putting up with the pain and go see a dentist.
Ronald: The pain of getting his bill will be far greater than this. Here, hold this string. (Ronald has string tied to his tooth to do a DIY extraction) I'll show those over-priced quacks.
4 q! f% i6 A& r; a凯伊：为什么你的样子那么古怪?
" i4 R( P9 e$ z, {罗讷德：我很痛苦，我的牙很痛。
  k, N9 Y) o0 l1 q" q0 }, E" Q$ `' t凯伊：那么别再撑了，去看牙医吧。wｗw.ExamＷ.CoM
/ N0 _0 b/ i$ F9 B' i罗讷德：收到他的账单比现在更痛苦，来吧，拿着绳子(自行拔牙)，我要叫那些收费高得离谱的庸医看看我的手段。
罗讷德牙痛，凯伊劝他说：Stop putting up with the pain and go see a dentist.(别再撑了，去看牙医吧)。但罗讷德决定自己脱牙：I'll show those over-priced quacks.(叫那些收费高得离谱的庸医看看我的手段)。
I'll show you/him等是成语，直译是‘我要向你/他证明’，有‘要证明自己并非那么不济’含义，例如：Do you think I won't be able to take revenge? I'll show you!(你以为我没法报复?你等着瞧吧!)
6 y5 ?, K5 e6 C0 VPut up with是动词词组(phrasal verb)，意思是‘忍受’，例如：He had to put up with an overbearing boss(他那个上司很横蛮，他也只好忍着)。‘忍痛’可以叫做to put up with/endure/bear pain，例如：The pain he was subjected to was more than a man could put up with/endure/bear(加在他身上的痛苦，非人所能承受)。
( r& a: c& r7 l1 K, b; q6 |留意go see a dentist这说法。Go、come二字之后，可用‘to+原形动词(infinitive)’，例如：(1) I went to see a dentist(我去看牙医)。(2) Tom came to talk to me about the matter(汤姆来找我谈这件事)。随便一点的说法，则是用‘and+动词’取代‘to+原形动词’，例如：(1) I went and saw a dentist。(2) Tom came and talked to me about the matter。美式英文有时更会把and或to略去，以go或come和另一动词连用，例如：(1) I will go see a dentist。(2) Come talk to me about the matter。但这个说法的go、come必须用原形(infinitive)，不可说I went see the dentist等等.
