The story so far
Everything you need before watchingAladdin finishes the song: he cannot play a prince, even if Jasmine walks away. Jafar will not leave. He already holds the lamp, and the city, he says, belongs to him. First wish: sultan of Agrabah. The genie obeys. Palace guards must now follow the new sultan. Next he orders an army against Shirabad and tells the princess to stay silent — seen, not heard. Watch how he turns the law into a gag order.

Golden lines
A great line in its own right — why and how to use it“I wish to be sultan of Agrabah!”
我要当阿格拉巴的苏丹!
第一愿不绕弯,直接改国体,三个词完成政变。
I wish to be + 身份
许愿、谈目标、把想成为的身份说死时。
I want to be the one in charge. / Make me the boss.
neutral
wish 稍顿,sultan 咬重,句末上扬。
“Stay silent.”
保持沉默。
两个词把封口令钉死,像盖章,不解释。
Stay + 形容词
要人别开口、别动、别插手时。
Keep quiet. / Don't say a word.
informal
两词平均用力,句末下沉。
“to be seen and not heard.”
只许被看见,不许出声。
旧谚语改刀,把女人说成摆设,冷而完整。
be seen and not heard
批评有人被当成摆设、不准发言时。
Look pretty and keep quiet. / Present, but voiceless.
literary
seen 和 heard 两端重,and not 轻轻带过。
