这场戏：舞会上被威洛比冷落
第 18 章 · 共 27 章 · 3'28"
伦敦舞会上，玛丽安终于撞见威洛比，冲上去一句 Will you not shake hands with me?（你不肯跟我握手吗？），对方却冷冰冰地客套，只说 must rejoin my party（得回自己那边）。玛丽安当众失魂，被埃莉诺拉走。姐妹俩吵起来：你从不 confide in（向人交心）。想学旧式社交的冷淡与姐妹拌嘴，这段很扎心。
冷落：Will you not shake hands with me?（你不肯跟我握手吗？）
shake hands with 跟…握手come to see me 来看某人For heaven's sake 看在老天分上
「向人交心」：confide in（向某人交心）
no confidence in 不信任某人confide in 向某人交心conceal nothing 什么都不隐瞒
伦敦舞会上，玛丽安终于等到威洛比，可他只肯用 How do you do, Miss Marianne?（你好，玛丽安小姐）这样冷冰冰的客套。玛丽安几乎是求他：Why have you not come to see me?（你为什么一直不来看我？）For heaven's sake, Willoughby. Tell me what is wrong.（看在老天分上，告诉我到底怎么了）。威洛比却借 if you will excuse me（请恕我失陪）抽身。埃莉诺拉走失魂的玛丽安，回程两人为信任吵翻：This reproach from you? You who confide in no one?（这话轮得到你说我？你自己从不跟人交心）。玛丽安冷冷回敬：I conceal nothing, and you communicate nothing（我从不隐瞒，而你什么都不肯说）。想学旧式社交的冷遇、客套和姐妹拌嘴，这段很典型。

“Will you not shake hands with me?”
你不肯跟我握手吗？
一句否定问句把委屈、质问和挽留全压在一个动作上。
Will you not ... with me?
对方刻意疏远、你想讨个说法时用；指责意味重，慎用。
Won't you shake my hand? ／ You won't even look at me?
中性
Will you not 连读，重音落在 not 上。
Will you not even say hello to me? 你连声招呼都不肯跟我打吗？
“Were you not in London? Have you not received my letters?”
你不是在伦敦吗？你没收到我的信吗？
两个否定问句连着砸过去，把被躲开的委屈问到底。
Have you not received my ...?
明明给过对方机会、对方却装不知道时用；语气很冲。
Didn't you get my messages? ／ Were you not there at all?
中性
Were you not 连读，两句间稍停再压上去。
Have you not received my emails all week? 我这一周的邮件你都没收到吗？
“For heaven's sake, Willoughby. Tell me what is wrong.”
看在老天分上，威洛比。告诉我到底怎么了。
先哀求再逼问，一句话里又软又急，很有画面。
For heaven's sake, tell me ...
催一个不肯开口的人、自己又急又气时用；别对上司说。
For God's sake, just tell me. ／ Please, tell me what happened.
口语
heaven's sake 连读，Tell me 加重。
For heaven's sake, tell me what the letter said. 看在老天分上，快告诉我信上写了什么。
“This reproach from you? You who confide in no one?”
这话轮得到你说我？你自己从不跟人交心。
用对方自己的毛病回敬，反问一出口就无法反驳。
This reproach from you?
对方自己也有同样毛病却来怪你时用；吵起来很难收场。
You of all people say that? ／ And you're the one telling me this?
中性
reproach from 连读，第二句 who 处挑起。
This reproach from you? You're never on time either. 这话轮得到你说我？你自己也从没准时过。
“I, because I conceal nothing, and you, because you communicate nothing.”
我没什么可说的，是因为我从不隐瞒；你没什么可说的，是因为你什么都不肯说。
两个 because 对称排开，把姐妹俩的性格一句话点透。
I, because ..., and you, because ...
把人品差异摆开对比、又不想吵破脸时用；书面也漂亮。
I hide nothing; you reveal nothing. ／ I say it all, and you say nothing.
正式
两个 because 前后呼应，conceal 与 communicate 对重。
I, because I ask first, and you, because you never ask at all. 我是因为凡事都先问一句，你是因为从来不肯问。
“If I might be so bold, it would be our pleasure to escort your charge home.”
恕我冒昧，我们很乐意送您照看的这位小姐回家。
客气到极点，把趁人之危的意图包成了绅士风度。
If I might be so bold, it would be our pleasure to ...
想提一个略越界的请求时用；正式、场合越重越合适。
If I may be so bold, allow us to ... ／ Might I suggest that we ...
正式
might be so 连读，pleasure 与 escort 放慢。
If I might be so bold, it would be our pleasure to drive you home. 恕我冒昧，我们很乐意开车送您回去。

说 for heaven's sake，用来催促或求人。戏里玛丽安急着追问威洛比，开口就是 For heaven's sake, tell me what is wrong。
字面是「乡下式样」，在伦敦社交圈里带点瞧不起的意味。戏里旁人用它嘲笑达什伍德姐妹土气。
指「恕我冒昧、斗胆」，是开口提请求前的客气铺垫。戏里有人用它主动提出送人回家，显得既殷勤又得体。
指「状态反常、不像平时的自己」。戏里说 Mr. Pigeon was not himself all day，就是「皮金先生一整天都不对劲」。
