「连……都……」

中文最爱的夸张句式。

他连我都不认识。   He doesn't even know me.
连三岁小孩都会。   Even a toddler can do it.
连饭都没吃。       I didn't even eat.

连……都…… = even + 那个夸张的东西

英文的 even 可以站在几乎任何位置，挑那个最夸张的点。

动手

他连名字都写错了。

✅ He even spelled his name wrong.

连你都不相信我？

✅ Even you don't believe me?

我连一块钱都没有。

✅ I don't have even a dollar. / I don't have a single dollar.

连想都别想。

✅ Don't even think about it.

小卡片

连 X 都……   →  even X
一 X 都没    →  not a single X / not even one X

even 放在最夸张那个词之前，效果最好。
