“The last on your dial, but first in your hearts, and that's the truth, Ruth.”
我在頻道表上排最後,在你們心裡排第一,千真萬確,露絲。
對仗加押韻,把自嘲和自誇揉成一句,是電臺腔的招牌。
The last ..., but first ...
玩笑式自誇時可用;正式場合別這麼自吹。
Last on the list, but first in my heart. / Bottom of the chart, top of the pile.
口語
dial 後稍停,but first 加重,句尾 Ruth 輕輕帶出。
The last on the ballot, but first in my book. 選票上排最後,在我這兒排第一。
