Answer 1

To pull one's leg 初看起来好像和中文里的"拉后腿"的意思差不多。但是真正意思是逗别人，开别人玩笑的意思。

例句: "My roommate said this girl had told him she wouldn't mind going out with me. But when I invited her to a movie, I learned he was just pulling my leg."

这个大学生说："我的同房间同学说，那个女孩愿意和我一起出去玩。可是，当我请她去看电影的时候，我才发现我那同学是逗我，开我的玩笑。"

Pull one's leg 乍看起来似乎和中文里的“拉后腿”的意思差不多。但是 pull one's leg的真正意思是逗别人，开别人玩笑的意思。

用英语解释就是 to lead someone on; to kid someone

例子的话，
Hey, stop pulling my leg, will you! （喂，你别逗我了，行不行！）

Are you for real, or are you just pulling my leg?
你说真的，还是逗我玩的？
