看球时盘问对方过去:badgering a witness

看球赛时,一方绕着弯盘问对方的过去,越问越像审讯。直到对方先甩出一句 That's what you wanted to hear(这不就是你想听的吗),又用 badgering a witness(逼问证人)点破对方这是在盘问。想提醒别人别拐弯抹角打听,这两句用得上。

发生了什么

看球时,一方借着聊天打听对方过去,问题越问越紧,气氛慢慢变成审讯。回击也很直接:That's what you wanted to hear(这不就是你想听的吗)先把盘问的心思戳穿,badgering a witness(逼问证人)再把这种问法挑明,末了还说想了解底细直接问就行。get at 是「暗示;想说」,常用来点出别人话里真正的意思;badgering a witness 语气很重,适合抱怨被逼问;That's what you wanted to hear 则是带刺的反问。想提醒别人别拐弯抹角打听,这几句都用得上。

短语 · B1only have eyes for someone

面对“有没有出轨”的追问,一句 I only have eyes for you 是表白式的安抚;甜归甜,追问并没停,话题很快又转回旧绰号。

for 快说时缩得很轻,you 别拖满,整块顺过去。

Geez, man. Even I knew what you were gettin' at.
短语 · B2background information on someone

某人的背景资料

If you wanted background information on me, all you had to do was ask.

all 强调结构:All you had to do 是主语,was 后接动词原形 ask,强调“只需问一声”,不是过去进行时。

发音was ask

was 和 ask 快说时黏在一起,ask 的 k 轻轻收住就行。

If you wanted background information on me, all you had to do was ask.

看懂「看球时盘问对方过去」

  • was ask — was 和 ask 快说时黏在一起,ask 的 k 轻轻收住就行。
I only have eyes for you.

我只对你情有独钟。 把忠诚说成视线只落在一个人身上,甜而不腻,也像在挡回追问。

There's subtler ways of badgering a witness. Am I right?

逼问证人还有更委婉的办法。我没说错吧? 用法庭词讽刺恋人盘问,冷静里带刀,句子短而准。

If you wanted background information on me, all you had to do was ask.

你要是想要我的背景资料,直接问一声就行了。 把绕弯盘问和一句“直接问”对照,冷静划界,不吵却有力。

You didn't have to go playing Hercule-fucking-Poirot.

你没必要扮赫尔克里·他妈·波洛。 侦探梗加脏话嵌名,把对方的盘问嘲到顶点,收束狠而好笑。

关于这一章的问题

badgering a witness 是什么意思?

字面是反复逼问证人,这里指追问得太紧、像在审讯。台词用 badgering a witness 点破盘问方式,还说逼问也有更含蓄的路子。

「这不就是你想听的吗」英语怎么说?

台词里说 That's what you wanted to hear,带点反问和讽刺,意思就是「这不就是你想听的吗」,用来戳穿对方真正想听什么。

get at 在对话里是什么意思?

get at 在这里是「暗示;想说」,指听出对方真正想表达什么。台词里说 Even I knew what you were gettin' at,就是「连我都听出你什么意思了」。

「有心事」英语怎么说?

可以说 on your mind,字面是「在你心上」,就是心里装着事、有心事。台词里就用它问对方是不是有心事。

take advantage of 是什么意思?

意思是利用(机会/弱点)。台词里说那帮人 took advantage of my parents' never being home,就是趁父母不在家钻空子。
