老实跟你说、实不相瞒

To tell you the truth, we're not together anymore.Husbands and Wives · 1992 — 第 15 / 15 章 · 2'46" · B2
雷恩二十一岁生日那天,屋外狂风暴雨,屋里的灯突然全灭。烛光下盖布先老实交代:To tell you the truth, we're not together anymore(实不相瞒,我们已经不在一起了),又把藏了一整晚的礼物递过去,说自己一直没敢拿出来,怕人 get the wrong idea(往歪处想)。想学这种又暖又微妙的对白,这些很上头。
雷恩二十一岁生日,派对赶上一场飓风:窗外暴雨雷电,大家都到楼上来看,说这是卡罗来纳那场飓风的尾巴,风雨还会更大。有人提到雷恩就是在飓风里出生的,it's very fitting(真应景)。正说着,灯全灭了,有人抱怨 just my luck(就我这运气),还是自己生日;大家点起蜡烛。烛光里盖布说你在烛光下真漂亮,又坦白 To tell you the truth, we're not together anymore(实不相瞒,我们已经不在一起了),然后拿出藏在外套里一整晚的生日礼物,说自己没敢在别的房间给,怕人 get the wrong idea(往歪处想)。雷恩说礼物很美,最后开口:她真正想要的,是一个生日吻。

Oh, it's very fitting. I was born during a hurricane.哦,这可太应景了。我就是在飓风里出生的。 把天气和自己的出生连在一起,像是命运在配合。一个自嘲的巧合,却让这场停电生日有了象征意味。
Oh, this is just my luck on my own birthday.哦,就我这运气,还是自己生日。 just my luck 是句万能的反讽,加上 on my own birthday 就把倒霉推到顶点。自嘲得恰到好处。

意思是「误会、往歪处想」。原句说怕别人 get the wrong idea,就是不想让人把送礼物的举动想成别的意思。
意思是「老实跟你说」,在要讲不太好开口的实话前先打个招呼。原句接 we're not together anymore,就是坦白自己已经和妻子分开了。
fitting。原句说在飓风里过生日 it's very fitting,还补一句自己就是飓风里出生的,用一个词把巧合说得很宿命。
be misconstrued,比 misunderstood 更正式,指被解读成错误的意思。原句 It could be misconstrued,就是「这可能会被想歪」。
just my luck,通常是反讽,意思是「果然又轮到我倒霉」。原句 this is just my luck on my own birthday,就是「偏偏在我自己生日上出这事」。
the tail end of,指某件事的尾声。原句 the tail end of that hurricane off Carolina,就是「卡罗来纳那场飓风的尾巴」。
