"I gave myself an Engpsh name" 可以用 "I chose an Engpsh name for myself" 或 "I named myself in Engpsh" 来表达。
这个短语的来源是因为有些人喜欢用英文名字来给自己取名字,这样在国际交往或使用英语时会更方便。
例句:
"I gave myself an Engpsh name because it sounds more professional in international business meetings." (我给自己起了个英文名,因为在国际商务会议中会听起来更专业。)
"I named myself in Engpsh because it makes it easier for my Engpsh-speaking friends to pronounce." (我用英文给自己起名字是因为这样我的英语朋友发音会更简单。)
