對某人有好感/讚賞
My mother was very impressed with you.Blue Jasmine · 2013 — 第 13 / 15 章 · 3'33" · B2
正聊到興頭上,一句「嘿,茉莉」把人叫住——來的是她前妹夫奧吉,人還站在街上就翻起舊賬。有人勸他 put this behind you(把這事放下),他頂回去:有些人就是沒那麼容易放下;想插嘴的,被一句 stay out of it(別插手這件事)擋回去。想勸人往前看、想讓人少管閒事,這兩句都能直接用。
街上兩人正聊著父母對另一方的印象,又拿鑽戒大小開了句玩笑。一句「嘿,茉莉」打斷氣氛,來的是茉莉的前妹夫奧吉。他沒打算客氣——舊賬一筆筆翻出來,說自己本來能有自己的公司。有人勸他 put this behind you(把這事放下),得到的回答是「有些人就是沒那麼容易放下」。話題又轉到丹尼,也繞不開哈爾自殺的事。對方一頭霧水,追問到底怎麼回事;一句 in that tone of voice(用那種口氣)頂了回去,兩人隨後上了車。車門一關,爭執變成 up and down the line(從頭到尾)的指責:你騙了我,難道以為我遲早不會發現?

有人插話勸 Take it easy(消消氣),又說不認識對方;被勸的人就著這句甩出 stay out of it,當場劃出硬邊界:這是我的事,你別插手。
Take it easy. I don't know who you are-- Right, you don't, so stay out of it.過得還不錯

Let me tell you something, Jeanette, Jasmine, whatever it is you call yourself these days.自由關係從句:whatever 引導名詞性從句,等於“你自稱的那個名字”,這裡帶譏諷。

Can we just--? Not until you tell me what's going on.省略回答:Not until 加從句構成省略回答:你先說清,否則免談。
Can we just--? Not until you tell me what's going on.what's going 連成串,on 輕輕收。
Can we just--? Not until you tell me what's going on.用那種口氣
上車前,一方用命令口氣讓人 get in the car(上車),對方立刻覺得被居高臨下地使喚,用 in that tone of voice 頂回去;爭的不是音量,是口氣和尊嚴。
Don't talk to me in that tone of voice. Okay.從頭到尾
婚禮話題徹底崩掉,有人用 up and down the line 把對方的隱瞞說成整段關係裡的欺騙;不是抱怨一次,是全盤否定。
Of course we can't get married. You lied to me up and down the line!不是今天,遲早也會
Didn't you think I would find out, if not today, eventually?否定反問句:否定反問句不是問資訊,而是責備對方沒想過會被發現。
Didn't you think I would find out, if not today, eventually?等到為時已晚
Like after we were married? Is that what you wanted, to wait until it was too late?純屬偶然
I found out by chance, by sheer chance. Okay, if it's over, it's over.自作自受 字面把一切帶到自己身上,這裡指自作自受
I get it. You're not marrying me. I brought everything on myself.只能怪自己 字面只有自己能怪,這裡指責任全在自己
I've only got myself to blame. I did it to myself again, as usual.重讀 only 和 self,got 快帶。
I've only got myself to blame. I did it to myself again, as usual.妓女;賤貨(辱罵)——極度侮辱,現實爭吵別說
You and your stupid little French whore.將要(口語縮略)——口語和歌詞裡常見,寫作別用
Let me out of the car. How are you gonna get home?Some people, they don't put things behind so easily.有些人,就是沒法那麼輕易把過去放下。 用‘他們’作話題標記,把抽象傷口說成日常動作,冷靜卻扎人。
Of course we can't get married. You lied to me up and down the line!我們當然不能結婚。你從頭到尾都在騙我! 先用 of course 堵死退路,再用 up and down the line 把謊言拉成整條時間線。
Didn't you think I would find out, if not today, eventually?你就沒想過我總會發現嗎,就算不是今天? 把 find out 放進反問,再補 eventually,逼對方承認僥倖心理。
I've only got myself to blame. I did it to myself again, as usual.只能怪我自己。我又一次自己害了自己,跟往常一樣。 把責任全攬到自己身上,as usual 一落,委屈和自嘲同時出來。
意思是把某件事放下、不再糾纏,往前看。戲裡有人勸對方把舊賬翻過去,得到的回答是「有些人就是沒那麼容易放下」。勸人 move on(往前走)時常用,賓語放中間:put it behind you。
You lied to me up and down the line. up and down the line 就是從頭到尾、處處,說的是謊撒得徹底,不是隻瞞了一件事。
不是。它多半反著用,意思是「意外才怪」「果然如此」,帶諷刺。戲裡那句 Yeah, surprise, surprise, huh? 就是這種口氣。
用在讓對方別插手的場合,語氣很直接。戲裡有人說 I don't know who you are(我不知道你是誰),對方接的就一句 Right, you don't, so stay out of it——「對,你不認識我,那就別管」。
說的是「用那種口氣」跟人講話,聽著像在壓人。戲裡有人被一句 Get in the car(上車)使喚,回的就是這句。想提醒對方把態度放尊重點,比 Don't be rude(別這麼沒禮貌)更具體。
都有點,是「對…很有好感」。戲裡說她父親平時挑剔,卻 he was very taken with you,意思是「對你特別有好感」,比 like(喜歡)更書面一點。
