I’m green with your ipad or I’m green with yours.
이 표현도 맞나요? 제가 영어 방송으로 공부하다가 듣게 됐는데, 꽤 오래전에서 들어서 잘 기억이 안나요 ^^
그런데 지금 한국에서 공부만하시나요?^^
Hi, Torres.
The original expression is “green with envy.”
So, you could say something like, “I’m green with envy over the way he keeps getting promoted and I’m stuck in the same position I was in five years ago.”
Bear in mind that this expression is slightly outdated.
Hope that helps.

감사합니다 ^^글구 참 한국어 실력이 한국토종인 저보다도 훨 뛰어나시네용!! 어쩜,,!!
그리고 이 참을 빌어 질문 한개 더용!! ^^;;
예를 들어, 시험에서 1점 차이로 떨어져서 “아, 아깝다,,!!ㅠㅠ” 이런 표현이 영어에도 있나요??
기대했던 상황이 무너져서 실망하거나 아쉬워 할때 쓰는 표현이 궁금해요 ^^
so close(아깝다)
I nearly passed (아깝게 떨아진거고)
I narrowly( or barely) passed( 겨우 붙은경우)
Oops, I didn’t see your comment.
Yep, Glen’s suggestions are all fine. If you want to make that into a sentence, you could say, “I was so close.”

Hello! I’ve always watched many things that you’ve made for a leaner. Thanks for your effort !!
I wonder if I could say “I was almost there” for I was so close!!
I always appreciate you!!
사람들은 우리가 항상 접하는 자극 모두를 명쾌하게 구분하려고 하는 경향이 있어요. 그러나 조심하지 않으면 이 본능은 과도한 일반화로 변질될 수 있습니다. – 이 문장을 보니 저보다 훨씬 작문을 잘하시네요. 하핫 ㅡㅜ
