the full monty毫无保留的全套

把年纪和眼光放进一句，乐观被轻轻削掉，不像宣誓。

我快到某个岁数，看某事没那么乐观。

跟同龄朋友聊转折可以用，别拿年龄去压刚起步的人。

The birthday made the future look dimmer. ／ I was hitting that age and seeing things more plainly.

中性

forty和less加重，perhaps轻轻带过。

I was turning 50 and I was looking at the clinic less optimistically. 我快五十了，看这家诊所也不再那么乐观。

前半是狠判断，后半把打架收进自己家，委屈一下子炸开。

从没想过在自己的地方还得打架。

跟信任的人诉苦能用这股劲，演讲或开玩笑别学这口方言。

I never thought I'd have to fight under my own roof. ／ Safe with everyone else, and still not safe at home.

literary

house前停一下，never咬清，别让否定听反。

I never thought I had to raise my voice in my own kitchen. 我从没想过，在自己厨房里还得抬高声音。

爱先说满，再用before把挨打挡在死的后面，底线没有缝。

我宁可怎么样死，也不让他再怎么样我。

这是绝境里的发誓，朋友间夸大泄愤都嫌重，对谁都别当真。

I will end it before I let him hit me again. ／ Love stays; the beating does not.

口语

God knows轻起，dead前的kill砸实。

I'll kill that rumor dead before I let it reach my mother. 我宁可把谣言掐死，也不让它传到我妈耳朵里。

用一句俗话承认尺度没跟上原著，比解释镜头更像人话。

没像某人那样做到毫不保留。

朋友间说自己没做到位可以，当着作者或当事人别用，太轻。

I stopped short of the uncut version. ／ I didn't take it all the way.

口语

monty两个音节站稳，后半句加快收住。

He went for the full monty with the office gossip. 办公室那些闲话，他一个细节都没藏。

两个just把理由抽空，只剩下胆小和不好意思。

我就是某种心情。我就是有点另一种。

跟合作的人承认自己退缩可以用，拿它推卸责任就别说。

I lost my nerve. ／ I was too embarrassed to go through with it.

口语

timid和embarrassed拉长，just放轻。

I was just nervous. I was just a little embarrassed to ask. 我就是紧张，开口问的时候有点不好意思。

could never把“还没走到”说成“到不了”，界限一次画死。

永远走不到某人用某物走到的地方。

跟第三者谈作品差距时可以说，当着写书的人或正式场合别说。

That part of the book was beyond him. ／ He could not reach the place her pages go.

中性

never加重，book轻收，where不要吞。

I could never go where the nurse went with that family. 护工陪那家人走到的地方，我永远走不到。
