Cannon Fodder

含义:炮灰!当我学到这个词组的时候,我真的不知道是中文先有了炮灰,还是英文先有了Cannon Fodder...

注意是Cannon Fodder,不是Canon Folder。我见过不少老外都把这个词拼成Canon Folder的,丢死人了

例句:

A: Why are we assigned to this task? I thought we're more useful than this.
B: Well that's not the point, I figure it's because you and me are the only two that does not have connections high up. We're cannon fodders man, this stupid case will drag on for ages and bury us. Time for a new job!
