“指手畫腳”，意思是一邊說話一邊比畫，形容隨意發(fā)號(hào)施令或亂加批評(píng)（make indiscreet remarks or criticisms）。而“喜歡指手畫腳的人”可以翻譯為“backseat driver”，表示someone who tells others how to do things；a person who interferes in affairs without having knowledge, responsibility, or authority for doing so”。

例句：

盡管瑪麗能獨(dú)自完成這個(gè)項(xiàng)目，約翰還是忍不住指手畫腳，告訴她該怎么做。Although Mary was capable of completing the project on her own, John couldn’t stop himself from being a backseat driver and telling her what to do.

別再纏著我提你的建議了。沒人喜歡指手畫腳的人！Stop pestering me with all your advice. Nobody likes a backseat driver!
