這場戲：法庭上反將一軍
第 22 章 · 共 27 章 · 2'26"
夜庭上柯比夫婦支支吾吾，他們不好意思承認，look my family over（打量我一家）、good enough to marry their precious son（配不配得上他們的寶貝兒子）。範德霍夫更狠，說配不上的是你們家，我死也不會跟 a bunch of snobs like that（這麼一群勢利眼）攀親。想學怎麼當眾反擊、怎麼罵人不帶髒字，這些說法很實用。
❝ 獨白 · 4 句 「配不上的是你們家」：isn't good enough（配不上）
stand for 容忍、接受a bunch of 一群、一幫
「別來我們這片兒」：go slumming（體驗窮人生活）
as far as I'm concerned 就我而言take a flying leap 滾遠點、哪涼快哪待著go slumming 跑去體驗窮人生活
夜庭上，柯比夫婦不肯解釋那晚為什麼去西卡莫家。範德霍夫替他們打圓場，說 Mr. Kirby came to see me about buying my house（柯比先生是來找我談買房子）。可柯比太太還是不認賬，說不該為這些人可能幹的事 be held accountable（負責）。愛麗絲忍不了，站起來揭穿真相：他們不好意思承認，是來 look my family over（打量我一家）、看我 good enough to marry their precious son（配不配得上他們的寶貝兒子）。範德霍夫更乾脆，說配不上的是你們家，自己死也不會跟 a bunch of snobs（一群勢利眼）攀親。旁聽的朋友起鬨，說這是 take a flying leap（一邊涼快去）。想學怎麼當眾反擊、怎麼罵人不帶髒字，這些說法都很實用。
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。
“I've decided that it's your family that isn't good enough.”
我現在認定，配不上的是你們家。
把對方打量人的尺子反手量回去，一句頂得乾淨利落。
it's ... that isn't good enough
被人挑剔、看不起時用來反擊；對客戶或長輩說會撕破臉。
It's your side that doesn't measure up. ／ You're the ones who aren't good enough.
口語
it's your family 重讀 your，that isn't good enough 收得乾脆。
If you ask me, it's their offer that isn't good enough. 要我說，不夠誠意的是他們那份報價。
“The next time you want to go slumming, stay away from our neighborhood.”
下次你們想體驗窮人生活，別來我們這片兒。
用 slumming 三個音節把對方的優越感剝得乾乾淨淨。
The next time you want to ..., stay away from ...
有人拿你的生活當消遣時用；對客人當面說就等於趕人。
If you're only sightseeing, don't come around here. ／ Don't treat our street like a tourist stop.
口語
next time 連讀，slumming 重讀，stay away from 一氣說完。
If you just want to go slumming, don't post about it. 要是隻想找點窮人新鮮感，就別發到網上。
“They're ashamed to admit they came to look my family over to see if I was good enough to marry their precious son.”
他們不好意思承認，是來打量我一家，看看我配不配上他們寶貝兒子。
把難堪的真相一口氣攤開，越平靜越有殺傷力。
They're ashamed to admit ...
點破對方不肯承認的動機時用；當眾說會讓人下不來臺。
They won't admit what they really came for. ／ They're too proud to say why they showed up.
中性
ashamed to admit 連讀，good enough to 輕讀，句尾別升高。
They're ashamed to admit they only came for the free food. 他們不好意思承認，來就是為了白吃白喝。
“Cinderella just told Prince Charming to go take a flying leap.”
灰姑娘剛叫白馬王子哪兒涼快哪兒待著去。
把童話拿來當比喻，一句就寫盡了反轉：被看輕的人把王子頂了回去。
X just told Y to go take a flying leap.
場合：跟朋友轉述某人硬氣拒絕伴侶時用；正式場合或當著當事人父母不要說，殺傷力太大。
She told Prince Charming to take a hike. ／ The princess just showed the prince the door.
口語
Cinderella 和 Prince Charming 說清楚，flying leap 連讀帶過。
She just told her perfect boyfriend to go take a flying leap. 她剛叫那個完美男友哪兒涼快哪兒待著去。
Grandpa, I won't stand for it. I won't stand for our being humiliated like this. They're ashamed to tell you why they were there. They're ashamed to admit they came to look my family over to see if I was good enough to marry their precious son.
爺爺，我忍不了。 我不能容忍我們這樣被人羞辱。 他們不好意思說自己去那兒幹什麼。 他們不好意思承認，是來打量我一家，看看我配不配上他們寶貝兒子。
下一章 · 23get over it走出來這場戲：唸完信決定賣房意思是「跑去體驗窮人生活」，指上層人出於好奇去底層地方尋樂子。這話帶諷刺，暗示對方只是來看新鮮。
意思是「容忍、接受」。I won't stand for it 就是「我絕不容忍這種事」，語氣很強硬。
look over。look someone over 就是從頭到腳打量某人，片裡指柯比夫婦來審視愛麗絲一家。
stand trial。stand 在這裡是「站上（法庭）」，stand trial 就是「出庭受審」，多指刑事被告正式上庭受審。
是句粗魯的驅趕語，意思是「滾遠點、哪涼快哪待著」。片裡用來形容灰姑娘把王子打發走。
