街頭聊蜜月和看戲:a bad liar

維也納街頭,兩個剛到的人想找晚上好玩的事,被問為什麼來,有人答 We're on honeymoon(正在度蜜月)。隨後一句 You're a bad liar(一撒謊就露餡)點破,話題又轉到 a play we're both in(兩人都在演的一齣戲)。想學笑著拆臺,這幾句夠用。

發生了什麼

兩個剛到維也納的人想找晚上好玩的事,在街頭攔人問博物館和展覽,說自己只待今晚。被問為什麼來維也納,有人答 We're on honeymoon(正在度蜜月),還補上懷孕、只好結婚。隨後一句 You're a bad liar(一撒謊就露餡)點破謊話,話題又轉到 a play we're both in(兩人都在演的一齣戲),臺詞裡出現了 we would like to invite you(想邀請你)。另外 for a change 是「換換口味」,請人改說德語用的就是它。

如果有人扔根棍子,她就會叼回來。 用條件句一本正經講奶牛像狗撿棍子,冷麵幽默。

It translates as Bring Me The Horns of Wilmington's Cow.

關於這一章的問題

a bad liar 是什麼意思?

指不擅長撒謊、一撒謊就露餡的人。臺詞裡蜜月、懷孕的說法之後,出現 No, I don't believe you. You're a bad liar,是點破的語氣。

「正在度蜜月」英語怎麼說?

on honeymoon。臺詞裡 We're on honeymoon 就是「我們在度蜜月」,介詞用 on;想說「我們的蜜月」也可以說 on our honeymoon。

Sprechen sie English? 是什麼意思?

是用德語腔問「你會說英語嗎?」。臺詞裡得到 Ja. Of course. 的回答,緊接著就是 Could you speak German for a change? 這句玩笑。

21:30 為什麼要追問 It's 9:30?

21:30 是 24 小時制寫法,等於晚上九點半。臺詞裡有人重複 21:30?,得到 It's 9:30,再回 Oh, 9:30. Right, right,就是確認時間。

「想找點好玩的事做」英語怎麼說?

looking for something fun to do。臺詞裡 we're looking for something fun to do 後面還舉了博物館、展覽當例子,到新地方問路時可以直接這麼說。
