英语中形容一个非常耗钱的东西，叫money pit. 科林斯的解释如下：You can refer to a place or project as a money pit if you keep having to spend large amounts of money on it. 科林斯上有个例句： Make sure the property you buy isn't going to turn into a money pit.因为教育内卷的关系，现在很多父母戏称孩子是“吞金兽”，我很好奇money pit是否可以用来形容人，我问了一下ChatGPT，回答如下： Yes, you can refer to a person as a "money pit" in a figurative or humorous way, but it's important to be mindful of the context and tone. "Money pit" usually describes something (like a house or a car) that continually requires money to maintain or fix. However, in casual or lighthearted conversation, you might hear someone refer to a person as a "money pit" if they constantly need financial support or have high expenses associated with them, like a child whose education, activities, or lifestyle are expensive.For example:
"My son's private school tuition and extracurricular activities are turning him into a real money pit!"
However, keep in mind that calling a person a "money pit" can sound a bit harsh or negative, so it's usually used in a playful or joking manner when referring to loved ones. If used seriously, it could come across as insensitive.
