准新郎怕婚礼跳舞：tie your life to someone
有人问对方到底怕不怕结婚，对方却说怕的是婚礼上不会跳舞。话题被 tie your life to someone（把一生托付给某人）拉回正事，又被 pass up on（白白放过）顶回来：有点紧张就该放弃吗？想聊婚前焦虑又不想说教，这两个说法很顺手。
发生了什么
一个人先问对方到底怕不怕结婚，对方绕了一圈才承认：不怕结婚，怕的是婚礼上不会跳舞。问的人不理解——你就要 tie your life to someone（把一生托付给某人），怎么只担心婚宴跳舞？对方说，艾玛漂亮聪明又爱自己，难道因为有几点疑虑就 pass up on（白白放过）这段感情？随后又把话题转回舞池，说想 make an impression（给人留下印象），让艾玛的亲戚看到艾玛到底看中自己什么。想聊婚前焦虑、取舍机会或第一次见家长，这些表达都用得上。
这场戏看什么
- 留意谈婚姻和跳舞时的语气落差
- 注意 get、pass up on
- 看追问怎样逼出真实担心

发音重点
- getting married at all — 重音压在 all 上，前面几个词轻快带过
- what you're sweating — you're 轻轻带过，重音压在 sweating
- pass up on that — pass up on 连成一串，that 别拖长
- bust a move — bust 的 t 只闭住不送气，s 直接滑进 a 的弱读 /ə/，常连成 /ˈbʌsə/，重音落在 move 上
You're about to tie your life to someone, someone who doesn't even really get you as well as your friends do, and what you're sweating is dancing at your reception?你就要把一生托付给一个还不如你朋友懂你的人，结果你担心的却是在婚宴上跳舞？ 把“托付一生”和“一支舞”硬碰硬，长句越认真越显出重心的荒唐。
My parents have been married for 35 years, and they still don't get each other.我爸妈结婚三十五年了，还是互相不懂对方。 用具体年数砸碎“时间久了自然懂”的幻想，短句收得冷。
I mean, what am I supposed to do, pass up on that because I have a few stupid doubts and some jitters?我是说，难道就因为我有几分可笑的疑虑和一点紧张，就要错过她？ 用反问把“疑虑”压成小东西，pass up on that 让错过显得不可接受。
Like, make an impression so that maybe they'll see whatever it is that Emma sees in me instead of all feeling like I'm some burger-peddling loser who couldn't even bust a move.比如，留下个好印象，好让他们看到艾玛在我身上看到的那些东西，而不是都觉得我是个连舞都不会跳的卖汉堡的窝囊废。 把婚礼焦虑落到“亲戚怎么看我”，自嘲具体到一个卖汉堡的失败者形象。
关于这一章的问题
at all 在问句里是什么意思？
意思是「到底、哪怕一点」。台词里问 are you scared about getting married at all，就是在问对方到底怕不怕结婚。
「把一生托付给某人」英语怎么说？
说 tie your life to someone，意思是把一生和某个人绑在一起。台词里说的正是：你就要把一辈子交给一个人了，却只担心婚宴跳舞。
go through with 是什么意思？
指硬着头皮把事办完。台词里有人在猜：对方也许在等朋友来拦一拦，别真的把婚礼办下去。
pass up on 是什么意思？
指白白放过好机会。这里说，难道因为有几点傻乎乎的疑虑和紧张，就要白白错过这段感情吗？
「给人留下印象」英语怎么说？
可以说 make an impression。台词里是想在舞池里给人留下印象，让艾玛的亲戚看到艾玛看中自己什么。
get you 是懂你的意思吗？
是。get you 就是懂你、理解你。台词里说结婚久了对方总会懂你，另一句则说父母结婚三十五年仍互相不懂。
