小聚會訊息走漏:the word had gotten out

有人辦小型聚會,只備了夠八個人的乳酪和餅乾,結果 the word had gotten out(訊息走漏),來的人比預想的多。想抱怨被冷落,就用 blow someone off(放某人鴿子)。這場派對吵吵鬧鬧,學的全是日常鬥嘴能用的表達。

發生了什麼

有人辦了個小型聚會,乳酪和餅乾只夠八個人,還問大家這樣夠不夠。沒想到 the word had gotten out(訊息走漏),臺詞裡提到 Jason is here with Taylor Wedell(傑森和泰勒·韋德爾到了),有人提醒「他只是在利用她來氣你」。派對上有人喊 put on(放音樂);有人抱怨對方辦派對不請自己,緊接著又有一句 invented her(一手捧紅對方)。這些說法適合聊八卦、抱怨被冷落,也適合在聚會裡聽清別人話裡的刺。

看懂「小聚會訊息走漏」

發音重點

  • gotten out about — out 的 t 輕帶,about 連上。
  • What up, dog — What up 連成一串,dog 尾音拖一點。
  • gonna have a — gonna 輕讀,重音落在 party 和 me。
  • don't wanna — t 輕帶,wanna 快讀,but 前停。
Somehow, the word had gotten out about my small get-together.

不知怎麼,訊息還是傳出去了,說我要辦個小聚會。 把訊息走漏說得輕描淡寫,small 和失控場面形成反差。

He's just using her to make you mad.

他不過是利用她來惹你生氣。 一句拆穿幼稚激將法,just 讓語氣像旁觀者點破。

She thinks she's gonna have a party and not invite me?

她以為自己辦派對可以不請我? 反問裡帶著被冒犯的理直氣壯,gonna 讓口語味十足。

I, like, invented her, you know what I mean?

我,怎麼說呢,是我把她捧出來的,你懂我意思吧? 用“發明”誇張自稱恩人,自抬身價又帶怨氣,很抓人。

關於這一章的問題

the word had gotten out 是什麼意思?

意思是「訊息走漏、傳開了」。臺詞裡說 Somehow, the word had gotten out about my small get-together,就是小聚會的訊息不知怎麼傳了出去。

「放某人鴿子」英語怎麼說?

可以說 blow someone off。臺詞裡有人問 Was Aaron blowing me off?,就是在問亞倫是不是在放自己鴿子、冷落自己。

I know, right? 適合在什麼場合用?

用來附和對方,意思接近「可不是嘛」。別人誇你 you look awesome(你看起來太棒了),回一句 I know, right? 既接住誇獎,也帶點得意。

invented her 是「發明了她」嗎?

不是字面上的「發明」。這裡指自己一手把對方捧紅,不是真的發明了一個人;臺詞裡有人說 I, like, invented her。

put on 在這裡是什麼意思?

指放音樂、播放。臺詞裡有人喊 put on "The Ramayana Monkey Chant"(《羅摩衍那猴子誦》),就是讓人放這首曲子。
