“指手画脚”,意思是一边说话一边比画,形容随意发号施令或乱加批评(make indiscreet remarks or criticisms)。而“喜欢指手画脚的人”可以翻译为“backseat driver”,表示someone who tells others how to do things;a person who interferes in affairs without having knowledge, responsibility, or authority for doing so”。
例句:
尽管玛丽能独自完成这个项目,约翰还是忍不住指手画脚,告诉她该怎么做。Although Mary was capable of completing the project on her own, John couldn't stop himself from being a backseat driver and telling her what to do.
别再缠着我提你的建议了。没人喜欢指手画脚的人!Stop pestering me with all your advice. Nobody likes a backseat driver!
