get a life去过自己的日子

again 连喊三遍，把磨到没脾气的疲惫直接砸到对方脸上。

Why do we have to ... again and again?

对反复纠缠同一件事的人用；质问长辈或上级时别这么冲。

口语

again 连读快念，三遍递进，最后一遍音调落下。

Why do we have to go over the rent argument again and again? 房租那场架干吗非得一遍遍地翻出来？

把「说了不听」的委屈比成收音机重播，狠话里带着疲惫的幽默。

If you'd ..., I wouldn't have to ...

对总是不听劝的伴侣或同事抱怨时用；正式沟通里不要用这种带脏字的版本。

If you'd just listen, I wouldn't keep repeating myself. ／ I wouldn't have to say this over and over if you listened.

口语

If you'd 缩读成 if-youd，wouldn't have to 轻快带过。

不喊口号，只盼一条街没被烧光，把劫后的牵挂说得极轻。

I hope ... is still standing.

经历事故或灾难后，对幸存的人或地方表达牵挂时用；商务邮件里显得太随意。

I hope the place is still there. ／ Let's hope the whole street made it.

中性

I hope 轻读，still standing 重音落在 stand，句尾下沉。

I hope the shop is still standing after the storm. 但愿那家店挺过了这场台风。

重复的呼告加一句无力收束，灾难之后的失语状态被完整封在这几个词里。

..., and what can I say?

面对集体创伤开口时用，公共讲话或悼念场合合适，私人聊天别用这种宏大腔。

My people... there are no words. ／ What is there left to say?

literary

My people 重读两遍，What can I say 放慢收尾。

Things fall apart, and what can I say? 一切都散了，我还能说什么？
