一場正式談話裡,有人一條條念出投訴:深夜來電、威脅、還要用廣場酒店的套房去賄賂議員。一句 peeling the first layer of the onion(只是冰山一角)把案子說得深不見底,一句 get someone on a wire(給某人秘密錄音)點出查案關鍵。想聊竊聽、爆料或層層挖內幕,這兩句都用得上。
一場正式談話裡,有人一條條念出投訴:深夜來電、威脅、還要用廣場酒店的套房去賄賂議員。一句 I am so sorry(非常抱歉)打斷陳述,接著有人說想 talk from my heart(說心裡話)、get vulnerable(袒露脆弱),場面很快失控,甚至有人掏槍。等大家坐回去,案子越談越大:peeling the first layer of the onion(只是冰山一角)說明才揭開第一層,get someone on a wire(給某人秘密錄音)則成了辦案關鍵。想學查案、談判或形容事情才剛開始,這幾句都能直接搬用。

程式自有其意義
袒露脆弱
只是冰山一角

What's the end of the ice fishing story?"Procedures exist for purposes that we must respect.程式之所以存在,自有我們必須尊重的目的。 把官僚腔說成一句原則宣言,冷靜、完整,適合拿來背正式表達。

可以說 peeling the first layer of the onion,也就是「只是冰山一角」;臺詞裡用它說明這案子才揭開第一層,後面還有更多。

是反話式誇獎。前面先列保住飯碗、別進監獄、別被黑幫幹掉,最後才說除此之外你幹得漂亮,明顯是在挖苦。
用 get vulnerable,意思是袒露脆弱。臺詞裡有人說,不想把話正式記錄在案,只想 get vulnerable,說說真實感受。
