Something's on your mind, Lenny.Mighty Aphrodite · 1995 — 第 3 / 15 章 · 2'12" · C1
伦尼跟人倒苦水:晚宴一场接一场,路上看见一对情侣,想起当年自己和阿曼达的 the old passion(从前那股热)。可现实是两人一见面就吵:她为攒 potential contacts(人脉)要去老板汉普顿的家,他嫌自己被蜱虫咬过,还吐槽老板 got a crush on you(暗恋你)。想学这两句,这段很真实。
伦尼向人倾诉:阿曼达近来总拉他去晚宴,上周跟多里安一家去 Le Cirque,昨晚又和格罗斯巴德一家在公园大道。回家路上他看见一对情侣抱着周日报纸慢慢走,忽然想起两人最初的日子——那时连逛街都是乐趣,如今 the old passion(从前那股热)早就没了,这些念头让他发慌。可一到家,两人又吵起来:她想去老板杰里·本德在汉普顿的豪宅,为的是 potential contacts(人脉);他抱怨那里让他被蜱虫咬,还说老板对她 got a crush on you(暗恋上了你),看她的眼神都像在 mentally undresses you(在脑子里把她脱光)。最后她让他别再提,他反过来说她这些年变得太多。

Something's on your mind, Lenny.宴请式晚饭局
伦尼开头就抱怨 last night I was at one of those dinner parties again。
Listen, last night I was at one of those dinner parties again.功能词要弱读
And then last night it was with the Grossbards on Park Avenue.实词加重
And then after that, we were driving home...中间辅音会吞
and I don't know what to say.厚厚的周日报纸
伦尼看见一对行人,男人夹着 Sunday papers,被他写成还在恋爱的证据。
And, you know, they're walking home and, you know, the guy's carrying the Sunday papers.这里的“first apartment”在第9处把具体动作、态度或关系说得更自然。
in our first apartment, you know, how romantic it was.这里的“terrific times”在第10处把具体动作、态度或关系说得更自然。
We had such terrific times.从前那股热
伦尼看完街上的一对,承认 it's been so long since the old passion between us。
I don't know, it's been so long since there's been, you know, the old passion between us.存在句:there is 先报存在,再出人或物。
I don't know, it's been so long since there's been, you know, the old passion between us.那又怎样
伦尼说上次被蜱虫咬,阿曼达 Oh, wow. Big deal,把他的怕说成小题。
- A tick? Oh, wow. Big deal. - For you, it wasn't a big deal.那又怎样、小事一桩——轻描淡写或嘲讽,看语调
- A tick? Oh, wow. Big deal. - For you, it wasn't a big deal.勉强忍受
阿曼达要去汉普顿攒人脉,说为了 potential contacts 可以 put up with ticks。
For the potential contacts, I can put up with a few ticks.可能用得上的人脉
阿曼达把蜱虫晚会说成 potential contacts,画廊还没开,人先存着。
For the potential contacts, I can put up with a few ticks.这里的“international spy”在第11处把具体动作、态度或关系说得更自然。
You know, it's like you're an international spy.这里的“all over town”在第12处把具体动作、态度或关系说得更自然。
- You got contacts all over town. - I plan to have my own gallery, and soon.这里的“own gallery”在第13处把具体动作、态度或关系说得更自然。
- You got contacts all over town. - I plan to have my own gallery, and soon.暗恋上你了
伦尼把汉普顿之行说成老板 Jerry Bender has got a crush on you。
You used to hate the beach. And Jerry Bender has got a crush on you.疯了、胡说——口语反驳,正式别写
- This guy stares at you. - Oh, no. That's nuts.在脑子里把你衣服剥掉
阿曼达说那是正常表情,伦尼升级成 He mentally undresses you。
- That's seriously crazy. - He mentally undresses you.这里的“normal look”在第14处把具体动作、态度或关系说得更自然。
- That's his normal look. - It's not his normal look.这里的“drop this”在第15处把具体动作、态度或关系说得更自然。
Okay. Okay, let's-- - Or kiss him on the lips, maybe. - Let's drop this. Please?For the potential contacts, I can put up with a few ticks.见当场语气,别逐词硬译。 这句把场面钉住,好记也好跟读。
You used to hate the beach. And Jerry Bender has got a crush on you.见当场语气,别逐词硬译。 这句把场面钉住,好记也好跟读。(第2句的表达重点)
I looked out the window and I see some guy and this pretty girl.我望出车窗,看见一个男人和一个漂亮姑娘。 一句平常的观察把『别人家的幸福』具体化,没加评论,却让后面的羡慕全有了依据。
If he looked at me that way I'd hit him with a brick.他要是那样看我,我就拿砖头砸他。 用最夸张的暴力回应一个眼神,护人的怒气和喜剧感一起砸出来。
And, you know, they're walking home and, you know, the guy's carrying the Sunday papers.他们走路回家,那男的还拿着周日报纸。 用最平常的画面说羡慕,把婚姻里想要的不过是并肩回家这件事讲得具体又酸楚。
指「暗恋上你了、对你有好感」。戏里伦尼认定妻子的老板对她 got a crush on you,看她的眼神都不对劲。
用 put up with,指忍着不快接受某人某事。戏里说为 potential contacts(人脉),可以 put up with a few ticks(忍几只蜱虫)。
字面是「在脑子里把你衣服剥掉」,指某人盯着你看、带着明显的性意味。戏里用来形容老板看妻子的眼神。
指「两人之间从前的那股热情」。戏里伦尼说我们之间已经太久没有 the old passion,说的就是婚姻里的热度消退。
常作反讽,表示「那又怎样、有什么了不起」。戏里对方说被蜱虫咬了,回一句 Big deal,就是嫌他小题大做。
