“恍然大悟”用英语怎么说?

当我们对思考已久的事情,突然明白或醒悟时,可以说是“恍然大悟”了。那么问题来了,“恍然大悟”用英语该怎么说呢?

① it occurs to me

这是一个使用频率很高的表达,日常生活中经常会用到。

在美剧《摩登家庭》中,Cameron对Mitchell道歉时,就用到了这个表达:

It occurs to me that I may have gotten a little too upset and jumped to some conclusions that were perhaps not true. I just wanted to say I'm sorry for accusing you.

我觉得,我可能有点过于不安了,还得出了某些或许不正确的结论。我想说,我很抱歉,我指责了你。

② it hit me
hit 表示“击打”,但这个表达可不是“它打我”哦。
在美剧《马男波杰克》中,马男对卡洛琳告白时,就用到了这个表达:
Carolyn: They didn't give you fake bourbon on set?
Bojack: Oh, they did, and then I just mixed it with bourbon. And it hit me. Why was I so upset about Diane getting engaged? You're the one who's always been there for me.
-他们拍摄没用假的波本酒吗?
-用了,我自己掺了真的而已。然后突然想到,戴安订婚我有什么好伤心的,你才是一直陪着我的那个。
③ epiphany /ɪˈpɪfəni/ n. 对事物真谛的顿悟

在美剧《生活大爆炸》中,Sheldon免费去Penny的店里帮忙,接着就出现了下边的对话:

Sheldon: Since I don't need to be paid, I didn't need to be hired.

Penny: Sheldon, this is ridiculous.

Sheldon: Is it? Just a moment ago, I had a minor epiphany regarding the polymer degradation phenomenon while scraping congealed nachos off a plate.

-既然我不领薪水,也就不需被录用。

-谢尔顿,这太荒谬了

-是吗?就在刚刚,在刮掉盘子里凝结的玉米脆饼时,我突然间就顿悟了,聚合物降解现象。
