在兩天內把它翻一倍
We got 7,300, Mike. We gotta double that in two days.Rounders · 1998 — 第 19 / 26 章 · 2'11" · B2
有人乾坐著,說這樣等下去像要 get whacked(被做掉);兩天內要把 7,300 塊翻倍,還怕差一點沒湊夠。後來有人說自己在牢裡輸錢給獄警,被當成 total fish(十足的冤大頭)。想學賭局黑話,這幾句最實用。
兩個人坐著盤算兩天內把七千三翻倍,一句 come up a little short(差一點沒湊夠)把最怕的結果說得很具體——不是全輸,而是就差那麼一點。隨後有人提起賓厄姆頓的牌局:十六七個市政工人剛領完工資就來打,油水很足,如果只贏一半就 we're home(我們就穩了)。為了說明怎麼進得了桌,又講起 in the joint(在監獄裡)輸錢給獄警、被當成 total fish(十足的冤大頭)的經歷。賭局、籌錢、聊風險,這些說法都用得上。

十足的冤大頭a clueless, easy-to-beat player

在兩天內把它翻一倍
We got 7,300, Mike. We gotta double that in two days.gotta 快說時縮成一團,double 重讀,that 輕帶
We got 7,300, Mike. We gotta double that in two days.差一點沒湊夠
有人盤算兩天內要翻倍,提到錢可能差一點沒湊夠;緊接著的一句話把後果說得更狠,come up a little short 就是「差一點沒湊夠」。
Well, we're gonna get close. I'm sure if we come up a little short, Grama...省略 if 條件句:前半句等於 If we come up even a little short,省掉 if,用逗號直接接後果。
We come up even a little short, Grama will shoot us and bury us in a hole somewhere.come up even 快說時黏連,up 的 p 別拖長
We come up even a little short, Grama will shoot us and bury us in a hole somewhere.他們剛領完工資就來
They come play right after they get their paychecks. It's very fat.一千美元——口語說錢數,正式寫 thousand dollars
Well, look, I figure there's 15 or 20 grand in that room, okay?我們就穩了、成功了 這裡不是「到家」,是「成功/穩了」
If we get even half of that, we're home.更好的辦法
- You got any better ideas? - How the hell am I supposed to even get in this game?加入這場牌局
- You got any better ideas? - How the hell am I supposed to even get in this game?到底,究竟——熟人前表不滿或驚訝,正式場合別用
- You got any better ideas? - How the hell am I supposed to even get in this game?大把送錢給獄警
No, it's easy. The whole time I was in the joint, I was just dumping money to guards.the 很輕,重音落在 joint,別把三個詞讀滿
No, it's easy. The whole time I was in the joint, I was just dumping money to guards.十八個月裡輸了大概一萬
This one guy, Pete Frye, I probably lost like ten grand over 18 months.去找他侄子
He told me anytime I wanted a game when I got out, just look up his nephew.時間狀語從句:anytime 帶條件,when I got out 再套一層:我出獄後想打牌時。
He told me anytime I wanted a game when I got out, just look up his nephew.你就能進去,算你一個 這裡不是「你在裡面」,是「你能入局」
You just go in there, you ask for Sean Frye, you're in.把這局贏光
有人給同伴打氣,說只要進得了牌局,就能 clean this game up(把這局贏光),把一桌市政工人的錢全收走。
You're gonna clean this game up. These guys are total suckers.冤大頭——熟人吐槽,正式場合別用
You're gonna clean this game up. These guys are total suckers.坐一小會兒
- Why don't I come in? I'll sit for a little while. - No.絕對不行,沒門
- No, not a chance. - I'll sit at the other table and play straight.規規矩矩地打
有人想加入牌局,被一句 not a chance(沒門)回絕後,退一步說坐到另一桌、play straight(按規矩打);對方仍讓他一個人進去,自己八小時後再回來。
You wanna play straight? You go in there, I'll be back in eight hours.口語條件句:You wanna...? 在這裡不是問喜好,而是「你要是想…那就…」的條件,後半句給後果。
You wanna play straight? You go in there, I'll be back in eight hours.We got 7,300, Mike. We gotta double that in two days.我們只有七千三,麥克。兩天內得翻一倍。 數字加期限,一句話把賭局壓力擺上桌;gotta 口語乾脆。
We come up even a little short, Grama will shoot us and bury us in a hole somewhere.我們哪怕差一點點,格拉瑪就會崩了我們,隨便找個坑埋了。 把後果誇到黑幫片級別,荒誕又嚇人;省略 if 更口語。
If we get even half of that, we're home.哪怕只拿到一半,我們就穩了。 we're home 把成功說成到家,短促有畫面。
You're gonna clean this game up. These guys are total suckers.你會把這局贏個精光。這幫人全是冤大頭。 clean up 和 suckers 一正一反,把自信和輕蔑壓進兩句話。
You wanna play straight? You go in there, I'll be back in eight hours.你想規規矩矩打?那你進去,我八小時後來接你。 用條件問句下最後通牒,短句把拒絕說死。
指牌桌上技術差、容易被贏錢的人,也就是好宰的冤大頭。臺詞裡有人說,別人把他當成 total fish(十足的冤大頭),說明他在牌桌上被看扁了。
可以說 come up a little short。臺詞裡 if we come up a little short 就是「差一點沒湊夠」,怕最後差一點點。
是。get whacked 意思是「被做掉」,黑幫片裡常見。開頭有人說坐在這兒感覺隨時會 get whacked。
口語裡常說 in the joint。臺詞裡有人回憶 the whole time I was in the joint,就是「我在牢裡那陣子」。
意思是規規矩矩地打、不耍花樣。臺詞裡有人提議坐到另一桌 play straight,另一句 you wanna play straight 也用了同一個說法。
不是字面上的「到家」,而是「我們就穩了、成功了」。臺詞裡 if we get even half of that, we're home 意思就是隻要贏一半就夠本。
