介绍： 【句子】Stu's taking us to the cleaners.   【Desperate Housewives S02E09】
【发音】/stuːz/ /ˈteɪ.kɪŋ/ /ʌs/ /tʊ/ /ðə/ /ˈkliː.nə(r)z/
【发音技巧】taking us连读；
【翻译】赔偿斯图会让我们倾家荡产。
【适用场合】
今天我们来一起学习一下take someone to the cleaners的用法，
这个短语的字面意思是“把某个人带到干洗店”，就像衣服被彻底清洗一样，“把某个人的钱财或者资源清理干净、挥霍一空”，或者“使某个人倾家荡产”，相当于：to get a lot of money from someone, usually by cheating them；或者看这条英文解释：If someone takes you to the cleaners, they make you lose a lot of money in an unfair or dishonest way.
 
eg: The feeling among many experts is that the price he paid was excessive. It sounds like he got taken to the cleaners.
许多专家认为他支付的价格过高。听起来他是被人狠狠宰了一笔。
 
eg: The insurers discovered that they had been taken to the cleaners.
保险公司发现自己被坑得血本无归。
 
eg: Paul was really taken to the cleaners on that deal.
保罗在那笔交易中，真是被坑得倾家荡产。
 
eg: The lawyers took the insurance company to the cleaners, but I still didn't get enough to pay for my losses.
律师们让保险公司赔了一大笔钱，但是我拿到手的钱仍然不足以弥补我的损失。
 
有的时候，在口语中，这个短语也可以指“在竞赛/对抗中彻底击败对方”；
eg: Look at the height they've got! They'll take us to the cleaners!
看看他们有多高！他们会把我们打得落花流水的！
