That will be the day! 會有那麼一天嗎？
That will be the day是一個用得非常普遍的習慣用語。That will be the day美國人用這個習慣用語已經有四十多年了。還帶有濃厚的諷刺性。
Sure, the boss promised us a raise again, but he's done that before and then finds some excuse not to do it. This time he said we can expect a nice raise by January 1. Yeah, sure - that will be the day！ We're afraid it just won't come true!
是呀，老闆又向我們保證要給我們加工資。可是，他以前也這麼保證過，然後又找藉口不給加。這次，他說，到一月一號，我們就可以加不少工資。 哼，誰信他的！恐怕這根本不會實現。
