這場戲：酒吧搭訕翻車記
第 11 章 · 共 17 章 · 2'54"
酒吧裡，一個姑娘滔滔不絕講自己的演員夢，說自己有 star quality（明星氣質），還得意地補一句 I can cry on cue（說哭就能哭）。另一邊，有人搭訕受挫，兄弟拍拍他說 Don't sweat it（別往心裡去）。想聊夢想、想安慰朋友別上火，這些說法都很地道。
搭訕問「你開的是什麼車」：What do you drive
What do you drive 你開的是什麼車What kind of 哪一種、什麼樣的all the time 總是、一直如此

酒吧裡，有人上前搭訕，開口就問人家「你開什麼車」，女孩報出車型後，他撂下一句 the same old shit（翻來覆去的老一套爛事），把這種無聊套路吐槽了個乾淨。另一桌，一個姑娘認真講自己的演員夢：從小有 star quality（明星氣質），在幼兒園被老師一句「你太愛演了」點醒，從此認定要當演員，還自信地說 I can cry on cue（說哭就能哭）。散場前，有人把剛要到手的女孩電話當場撕了，朋友覺得太 cold（冷血），他倒不在意。想學搭訕、自誇和損人的說法，這場戲給得很足。
A1–C2 是歐標等級。點一個等級後，比它高的卡片會變淡，播放到那裡不會自動暫停。
“See what I mean? It's the same old shit all the time.”
明白我意思了吧？翻來覆去就是這一套破玩意兒。
搭訕剛翻車就一句總結，自嘲裡夾著火氣，像極了朋友間的吐槽。
the same old ... all the time
跟熟人抱怨同一件破事反覆發生時用；正式場合和對長輩別說。
It's the same old thing every time. ／ Same old story, all the time.
口語
same old 連讀，all the time 三個詞輕快帶過。
It's the same old rush all the time at this office. 這辦公室啊，天天都是同一通手忙腳亂。
“My whole life people have told me I have this star quality.”
我這輩子一直有人說我身上有明星氣質。
把一句自誇說得像回憶錄開頭，又真又好笑，後面果然有反轉。
My whole life people have told me ...
半認真半自嘲地講別人怎麼評價自己時用；自吹過頭會招人煩。
Everyone has always said I have star quality. ／ People keep telling me I have that star quality.
中性
whole life 連讀，star quality 兩個重音要頂出來。
My whole life people have told me I should be a teacher. 我這輩子一直有人說我該去當老師。
“You asked a girl for her number and you tore it up.”
你跟人要了電話，轉頭就把紙撕了。
拿兩個動作一前一後擺出來，不罵人，卻把荒唐事說得清清楚楚。
You did A and you did B.
當面指出對方自相矛盾的行為時用；語氣重，別對不熟的人用。
You got her number and then ripped it up. ／ You asked for the number just to tear it up.
口語
asked a 連讀，tore it up 三個詞連成一氣。
You booked the flight and then you canceled it. 你訂了機票，轉頭又給退了。
“Kind of a dick move, if you ask me.”
要我說，這事挺缺德的。
一句輕描淡寫的評語，不吵不鬧就把對方的行為定了性，冷得剛好。
Kind of a ... move, if you ask me.
對朋友或熟人的行為下不客氣的評語時能用；對上級或長輩說會直接冒犯，別用。
That was a pretty low move, if you ask me. ／ Not a great move, honestly.
口語
Kind of a 連讀，dick move 重讀，if you ask me 放輕收尾。
Kind of a cheap move, if you ask me. 要我說，這招挺下作的。
My whole life people have told me I have this star quality. - Is that right? - Well, I don't know if it's true. But, well, this one time- this is really stupid- - but in kindergarten, you know- - It's all right. You know how you have those little crushes? I had this crush on this guy Lee. He was really cute, and he wore Lee Jeans. They said "Lee." Anyway, I really liked him. And then one day he told me I was ugly. I started crying, and my teacher was, like... "Deidre, you are so emotional. You are so dramatic. You should be an actress!" It was, like, that's it! I should be an actress. And you know what? I can cry on cue. - Yeah! Well, totally. - Uh-huh. That's really been sort of my thing, you know. It got me into Juilliard. And the agent said to me afterwards that he thought... he really was reminded by me... of Tina Yothers, you know, from Family Ties. And he said I looked just like her.
我這輩子一直有人說我身上有明星氣質。 ——是嗎？——我也不知道這是不是真的。 不過，呃，有一次——這事特別傻——就是上幼兒園那會兒，你知道——沒事，你接著說。 你知道小時候那種小心動吧？我當時就暗戀一個叫李的男生。 他特別帥，還穿李牌的牛仔褲，褲子上就印著「李」。 反正我特別喜歡他。結果有一天他說我醜。 我當場就哭了，老師就說…… 「迪爾德麗，你也太情緒化了，也太愛演了。 你應該去當演員！」 我當時就想，對啊！我應該去當演員。 你知道嗎？我說哭就能哭。 ——對！那當然。——嗯。 這一直算是我的拿手好戲，你知道。就靠這個我進了茱莉亞。 後來那個經紀人跟我說，他覺得…… 他說我讓他特別想起…… 蒂娜·約瑟斯，你知道，《家族的誕生》裡那個。 他還說我長得跟她一模一樣。
下一章 · 12money超酷這場戲：用大熊比喻給人打氣意思是「說哭就能哭」，cue 是「提示訊號」，演員一給訊號就能落淚。原句 I can cry on cue，是姑娘在炫耀自己的表演本事。
don't sweat it。原句 Don't sweat it, Mike，就是「別放在心上，邁克」；sweat 在這裡不是「出汗」，是「著急上火」。
a lay-up，來自籃球術語，指輕鬆得分，引申為「小菜一碟、穩了」。原句 It's gonna be a lay-up，就是「這一局穩了」。
意思是「將就、接受現狀」，多用在勸人別太挑剔。原句 you can't roll with that，就是「這你可不能將就」。
本來是「商務艙」，戲裡拿來調侃人的身材，說對方是「高檔貨」，高階得擠不進經濟艙。原句 She's business class 就是這個玩笑。
