Corsica's a bore. The weather's nice, but it's nothing like Sardinia.Blue Jasmine · 2013 — 第 4 / 15 章 · 2'59" · B2
派對上,有人提起雷琳整晚跟哈爾顯得很親熱,一句 Hal's not the roving type(哈爾不是到處留情的人)把話擋了回去。後來有人反覆追問:看見朋友妻子親別人,會不會告訴朋友?最後一句 looking the other way(裝作沒看見)點破有人寧願迴避。想學怎麼體面否認、怎麼委婉提醒,這場對話夠用。
派對上,有人提起雷琳整晚跟哈爾顯得很親熱;有人用 Hal's not the roving type(哈爾不是到處留情的人)否認,也有人拿自己丈夫打比方,說會 keep an eye on(看緊、留意)他。後來有人反覆問:要是看見朋友妻子親別人,會不會告訴朋友?有人說 a passing thing(一時的事)也許不提更好,也有人堅持 have his back(挺他、護著他)。最後一句 looking the other way(裝作沒看見)點出面對不想知道的事時的習慣。想學體面否認、委婉提醒和看穿不說穿,這些說法在聚會、夫妻矛盾和日常聊天裡都用得上。
這場戲看什麼
留意這幾個短語
so to speakkeep an eye onhalf in the bagwhat's eating you
本章短語
裝作沒看見deliberately ignoring something
最後一句給茉莉下判詞:她不想知道某事時,習慣把臉轉開。looking the other way 不是沒看見,而是選擇不看。
The company kept looking the other way while the warnings piled up.警告越堆越多,公司卻一直裝作沒看見。
可以說,打個比方
看緊,留意
喝得半醉
你怎麼了,煩什麼
一時的事,短暫的

Corsica's a bore. The weather's nice, but it's nothing like Sardinia.別找藉口
This year you are coming to Palm Beach, no excuses.你認識她多久了
How long have you known her? Few years. Why?現在完成時提問:用現在完成時問“認識多久”,因為認識從過去持續到現在;how long 放句首。
How long have you known her? Few years. Why?快問句裡 have you 常擠在一起,別把 have 讀重
How long have you known her? Few years. Why?這算什麼問法
Of course I trust her. What kind of question is that?整晚和某人很親熱 cozy 本義舒適,這裡指舉止過分親近
She just seems so cozy all night with your husband.花心、到處留情的人 roving 本義漫遊,這裡指感情上不安分
I wouldn't worry. Hal's not the roving type, nor is Raylene.否定倒裝:nor 放句首,助動詞提前;nor is Raylene 等於 and she isn't either。
I wouldn't worry. Hal's not the roving type, nor is Raylene.看緊,留意
有人用假設句提醒對方:換作是我丈夫,我會 keep an eye on him(看緊他),語氣像好心,實際把懷疑遞了過去。
If it was my husband, I'd keep an eye on him.喝得半醉——熟人之間調侃醉態,正式場合別用
Let me tell you, you were half in the bag the entire night, okay?你怎麼了,煩什麼
有人伸手要過對方手裡的東西,直接問 what's eating you(你怎麼了):不是問吃什麼,而是追問“你到底在煩什麼”。語氣可以關心,也可以帶點不耐煩。
Give me that. What's eating you?第二條件句:if 從句用過去式 saw,主句用 would tell,談假設或與現在相反的情況。
If you saw your friend's wife kissing another guy, would you tell your friend?重音砸在 ass 上,Bet your 快速帶過
Bet your ass I'd tell him. But what if it causes trouble?當然,絕對——熟人之間強烈保證,別對上司說
Bet your ass I'd tell him. But what if it causes trouble?一時的事,短暫的
兩個人爭論要不要揭穿一次親吻:有人說沉默能讓它變成 a passing thing,也就是一陣風就過去的事。
If you don't say anything, it could've been a passing thing.挺他,護著他
有人堅持朋友就該被告知真相,理由濃縮成 have his back:站在他這邊,選擇把話告訴他。
You gotta have his back. That's why I'd tell him.很難做的決定 call 這裡不是打電話,是決定
It's a tough call, Augie. I don't know.碰巧,偶然
On the street, by accident.定語從句:who was at the party 修飾 brunette,說明是哪一位;主句是 I saw Hal kissing her。
I saw Hal kissing that brunette who was at the party.到處跟人廝混——帶評判的八卦口吻,別當面說
My God, she gets around.沒什麼可擔心的
Oh, we were introduced. Come on, you got nothing to worry about.取代你的位置
Yeah. Nobody could ever take your place.和她上床——粗俗性俚語,正式場合絕不能用
You think Hal's banging her?有做某事的習慣
When Jasmine don't wanna know something, she's got a habit of looking the other way.裝作沒看見
最後一句給茉莉下判詞:她不想知道某事時,習慣把臉轉開。looking the other way 不是沒看見,而是選擇不看。
When Jasmine don't wanna know something, she's got a habit of looking the other way.looking the other 一口氣滑過去,the 很輕
When Jasmine don't wanna know something, she's got a habit of looking the other way.If you saw your friend's wife kissing another guy, would you tell your friend?如果你看見朋友的妻子親了別人,你會告訴朋友嗎? 一個假設句把整場戲的道德難題擺上桌,簡短、殘酷、無法迴避。
If you don't say anything, it could've been a passing thing.如果你什麼都不說,那可能只是一時的事。 把沉默包裝成善意,用 could've been 留出退路。
You know, I would tell him, because that's what a friend's for.你知道,我會告訴他,因為朋友就是幹這個的。 用最樸素的 because 把忠誠說成義務,反而有分量。
You gotta have his back. That's why I'd tell him.你得挺他。這就是我會告訴他的原因。 先給原則,再給理由,兩拍短句像敲桌子。
When Jasmine don't wanna know something, she's got a habit of looking the other way.茉莉不想知道某件事時,她習慣裝作沒看見。 結尾一句把整場試探收成人物判詞,口語語法反而更狠。
意思是「裝作沒看見」,指明明察覺卻故意不去面對。臺詞裡說,有人不想知道某件事時,就有這個習慣。
可以說 half in the bag。臺詞裡有人說對方整晚都 half in the bag,就是喝得半醉、不太清醒。
用 have his back。臺詞裡說朋友就該這樣,You gotta have his back,意思是朋友有難時要站他這邊、給他撐腰。
指「一時的事、短暫的」感情或狀況。臺詞裡假設不說破,那次親吻也許只是一時的事,朋友就永遠不會知道。
不是,是「看緊、留意」。臺詞裡有人拿自己丈夫打比方,說會 keep an eye on him,也就是多盯著點。
