"thread of thought" in Chinese (Simplified)

思路

Definition

“思路”指的是人的思考过程或想法之间的连贯性。如果你失去思路，就是忘记自己刚在想什么或说到哪了。

这个表达常用于“我忘了刚刚想到哪了”，搭配“lose”、“pick up”、“follow”等动词，略带正式但日常也适用。和“train of thought”（思路）类似，但“thread”重在连接感。

I lost my thread of thought during the meeting.

Can you follow my thread of thought so far?

你能跟上我的**思路**吗？

She picked up her thread of thought after the interruption.

被打断后她又找回了**思路**。

Wait—where was I? Oh, I just lost my thread of thought.

等等——我刚才说到哪了？啊，我**思路**断了。

It can be tough to keep your thread of thought when there are lots of distractions.

有很多干扰时，很难保持**思路**连贯。

他的故事跳跃太多了，我都跟不上他的**思路**。
