put down安樂死

把威脅說成倒計時，越精確越好笑；欺負人的架勢配上報數般的冷靜，反差就是它的味道。

It's exactly two seconds before I ...

熟人之間放狠話、玩鬧時用，語氣要一本正經；對陌生人說會像真的威脅。

You have exactly three seconds before I lose it. ／ I give you until the count of two.

口語

exactly two seconds 放慢重讀，before 後整段一氣呵成。

It's exactly three seconds before I take back your dessert. 還有三秒，我就把你的甜點收走。

兩句短話交代一條命：先給理由，再給結果，冷靜得像在報賬，黑色幽默全藏在不解釋裡。

The ... was rabid. Had to put it down.

說明不得不做出冷酷決定時用，語氣平靜；真談寵物安樂死時會顯得太輕，慎用。

It was suffering. We had to let it go. ／ There was no other choice.

口語

rabid 稍重，Had to put it down 放平放緩。

The engine was dead. Had to let it go. 發動機徹底報廢了，只能放手。

拿最狼狽的畫面當成就向媽媽炫耀，孩子氣的口吻和慘狀撞在一起，荒唐得讓人笑出來。

Look, ma, I'm ...!

拿自己的慘狀開玩笑時用，帶撒嬌式炫耀；對不熟的人或嚴肅場合會顯得沒分寸。

Look at me, I am a mess! ／ Mom, look what I did to myself.

口語

Look, ma 上揚，road kill 兩個詞拖長收尾。

Look, ma, I'm famous! 媽，你看，我出名啦！

先給好處再翻臉趕人，三句短話把「慷慨又任性」的角色性格一次演完。get outta here 連著 you bother me，是英語裡最直白的逐客令，也很好模仿。

There ya go. Now, get outta here. You bother me.

半開玩笑地打發走煩人的傢伙時用，語氣隨意甚至欠揍；正式場合或對長輩說會非常失禮。

Here you are. Now off you go; you are annoying me. ／ Take it and go, kid; you're a nuisance.

口語

There ya go 連讀，get outta here 連成 getouttahere，You bother me 降調收尾。

Here's your change. Now off you go; you're bothering me. 這是找零。行了快走吧，你煩到我了。
