That ship has sailed. 船已經開走了，木已成舟，為時已晚。白話一點就是說，太晚了啦！

丁老師時間錄音：

例句：

I think that ship has sailed, it's too late for me.
我想船已經開了，對我來說太遲了。

They have said that ship has sailed. There's nothing we can do about it.
他們說船已經開了。我們對此無能為力。

We think that ship has sailed but it hasn't sailed. Because that ship hasn't even started. It hasn't even been built yet because there's so much opportunity.
我們認為船已經啟航了，但它還沒有出發。因為那艘船還沒啟動呢。它甚至還沒有建造，因為有太多的機會。

實用場景：

拿到考卷分數時說：「我昨晚真該唸書的。」旁邊就可以出來潑冷水…That ship has sailed.

煮飯煮糟了，說自己真應該看食譜做的！老公就可以冒著生命的危險說…That ship has sailed.
