校門口聊全職爸爸：stay-at-home dad

校門口，家長聊起馬特：他是「媽媽堆裡唯一的爸爸」。有人提到 househusband（家庭主夫），馬上被糾正：他們更願意被叫 stay-at-home dad（全職爸爸）；聊到他辭職帶娃，又一句 save someone's butt（幫人解圍/救場）。家長寒暄、糾正稱呼都用得上。

發生了什麼

學校門口，家長們聊起馬特：他是「媽媽堆裡唯一的爸爸」。有人用 househusband（家庭主夫）這個詞，有人馬上糾正，說他們更喜歡 stay-at-home dad（全職爸爸）這個叫法；又提到他當年辭職帶娃，用一句很口語的 save someone's butt（幫人解圍/救場）說這忙幫大了。隨後有人請朱爾斯為聚餐帶牛油果醬，還預設她沒時間做。後半段一句反問把話題帶到對職場媽媽的挑剔。家長寒暄、委婉請求、替人解圍，都能從這幾句裡學到說法。

stay-at-home dad

全職爸爸father who stays home to raise children

對方剛說 househusbands（家庭主夫），這裡有人認真糾正：他們更願意被叫 stay-at-home dad（全職爸爸）。語氣平靜，“其實”這層意思把糾正的鋒芒露出來。

He left a marketing job and became a stay-at-home dad.他辭去市場行銷的工作，成了全職爸爸。

關於這一章的問題

stay-at-home dad 是什麼意思？

指全職在家照顧孩子的爸爸。臺詞裡有人說，他們更願意被叫作 stay-at-home dad，而不是 househusband（家庭主夫）。

「幫人解圍」英語怎麼說？

可以說 save someone's butt。臺詞裡聊到馬特辭職帶娃時，一句 Totally saved our butts 就是「幫人解圍/救場」。

not sure if 在句子裡起什麼作用？

它用來委婉地說「不確定是否」。臺詞裡先來一句 not sure if you got our e-Mail，再接著說聚餐安排，比直接追問更客氣。

「都什麼年代了」英語怎麼說？

臺詞裡 It's 2015 接在「走正道真累」之後，用年份表示「都什麼年代了」，覺得這種事早該過時；換到今天就說 It's 2026（都 2026 年了）。

a sea of 在句子裡是什麼意思？

字面是「一大片海」，臺詞裡 a sea of moms 指「一大片媽媽」，也就是媽媽人數非常多，馬特是其中唯一的爸爸。
