是我们的荣幸
I am Julian Slowik, and tonight it'll be our pleasure to feed you.The Menu · 2022 — 第 3 / 13 章 · 5'40" · C1
斯洛维克主厨端起第一道菜「海岛」,先撂下一句 Do not eat(不要吃),满桌没人敢动刀叉。客人们却边吃边挑刺,还丢出一句 a cheery thought(真叫人开心的一句话)——听着像夸,其实是冷嘲。想学英式阴阳怪气和餐桌礼貌挤兑,这些说法最地道。
霍桑餐厅开场,斯洛维克主厨致辞:接下来几个小时你们只许品尝、不许进食,一句 Do not eat(不要吃)把满桌人镇住。第一道菜「海岛」把石头和岛上植物端上桌,他借机说我们不过是自然里的 frightened nanosecond(惊惧的一瞬)。客人却不领情,有人嫌摆盘「求关注」,有人为美食节目出主意被吐槽这不是 brain surgery(又不是什么难事)。学餐桌寒暄、冷嘲热讽和评论食物,全是现成说法。

是我们的荣幸
I am Julian Slowik, and tonight it'll be our pleasure to feed you.大幕拉开、演出开始
The curtain rises.接下来几个小时里
Over the next few hours you will ingest fat,有时候、间或
various plants and animals and at times entire ecosystems.恳求你
But I have to beg of you one thing.beg of someone 结构:I have to beg of you one thing 用 beg of 加人,表示向对方恳求。of 后面是被求的人,比直接说 I beg you 更书卷、更郑重,适合站在众人面前说话。
But I have to beg of you one thing.他是认真的吗
Is he serious?每一小口、每一点
Consider every morsel that you place inside your mouth.留神、带着觉察
Be mindful.看看周围
And look around you.我们到了、我们就在这儿
Here we are on this island.那就借着这句话、话说到这
And on that note,他们来了
Here they come.Here they 里 here 末尾的音和 they 连读,听起来像 here-they 一滑而过。
Here they come.第一道菜
Our first course is called The Island.刚凝住、几乎没冻实
covered in barely frozen filtered seawater which will flavor the dish as it melts.旁敲侧击地想套
You know, this is what the guy was fishing for earlier.正是同样那批
It's perfectly all right. Yes, they are those very same scallops.最完美的状态
The island and the nutrients it provides exist in their most perfect state.与…相比
What happens inside this room is meaningless compared to what happens outside in nature.what 引导主语从句:What happens inside this room is meaningless 用 what 从句当主语,指这屋里发生的一切,再用 is 下判断。这种结构把一整套行为收成一个名词性整体,适合讲大道理。
What happens inside this room is meaningless compared to what happens outside in nature.惊恐的一瞬、微不足道的一瞬
We are but a frightened nanosecond.自然没有时间
Nature is timeless.真叫人开心的一句话(实为反话)
主厨刚说完人类不过一瞬、自然才永恒,客人冷冷地回了这句。
That's a cheery thought.美得舍不得吃
It's almost too beautiful to eat.too…to 结构:It s almost too beautiful to eat 用 too 加形容词加 to 加动词,表示「美到没法吃」。这个结构暗含结果:程度太过,导致某事做不成,不用再加 not。
It's almost too beautiful to eat.生我的气
MARGOT: You know the nicest restaurant in my hometown was... You don't think Chef's mad at me, right?其实并不重要
It doesn't really matter whether he likes you or not.吃你的石头(别多话)
Relax. Just eat your rock.eat your 里 eat 末尾的 t 和 your 连读,听起来像 ea-chur,中间不断开。
Relax. Just eat your rock.时断时续地、偶尔
Thoughts? I'm really feeling this is quite... It's half great. It's there in moments.eating the 里 eating 末尾的 ng 和 the 相接,读得顺滑,the 很轻。
We're eating the ocean.真是的、拜托(不耐烦)
Oh my God. For crying out loud. It's not brain surgery, okay?又不是什么难事
同伴被要求把节目创意说得花哨,不耐烦地说这又不是多难的事。
Oh my God. For crying out loud. It's not brain surgery, okay?说给我听、跟我讲讲
It's a goddamn travel food show. I know. Okay, so then do it. Yeah, yeah. So pitch it to me.该死的(粗俗加强语气)——goddamn 放在名词前加强语气,带宗教冒犯色彩,属于粗话;熟人之间发泄情绪可用,正式场合、对长辈和客户要避免。
It's a goddamn travel food show. I know. Okay, so then do it. Yeah, yeah. So pitch it to me.特写镜头
I eat the cheese and then there's a close up of me.搞定、齐活(诙谐说法)
And then I maybe I talk about how racism is not so cool and bingo bongo Emmy time.基本上是这样
That's what you're gonna pitch to three streaming services on Monday 199456. Yeah. Pretty much. That's that.一场灾难、糟透了
Yeah, Jesus fucking Christ. That's a disaster.酒驾指控、酒后驾车记录——DUI 是执法和口语里对酒后驾车的简称,也指这项罪名;日常聊天会说,正式文书里要写全称,提到别人时要注意隐私和分寸。
I don't think you can go to South Africa with a DUI.还行、挺扎实
Yeah. It's solid.一样好
I mean, I've had shellfish just as good with my chef at home, Ricardo. You know Ricardo? He's amazing.至少还能说
At least we can say we've been here, right?买的是体验本身
有人引用父亲的话,说花高价其实买的是这段经历。
My dad used to say that you buy the experience.前几天
I saw Perry at DeLaurenti's the other day.We are but a frightened nanosecond.我们不过是被吓到的一纳秒。 把人类缩成时间轴上的一瞬,还用「惊恐」形容这一瞬。谦卑里带着轻蔑,一句话就把整晚的基调定死。
What happens inside this room is meaningless compared to what happens outside in nature.与外面自然界发生的事相比,这个房间里的一切都毫无意义。 把满座的餐厅和窗外的自然放在一起称量,一句话就否定了眼前所有人。
We, the people on this island, are not important.我们这些岛上的人,并不重要。 把自嘲说成宣言:岛上所有人,包括客人,都被一句话抹平。
It's almost too beautiful to eat.美得几乎让人舍不得吃。 一句把「美」推到「舍不得」的停手线,正好呼应主厨「不要吃」的荒诞指令。它提供了一种体面的欣赏姿态,也让这场戏的黑色幽默更冷。
字面是「不是脑外科手术」,实际是吐槽一件事没那么难、别小题大做,等于「这又不是什么难事」。别人把简单的事说得很严重时,就可以拿它顶回去。
a cheery thought。不过电影里是反话:主厨刚说完人类微不足道,客人回一句 That's a cheery thought,表面像夸,其实在挖苦。
指把故事、描述添枝加叶地渲染,让话更好听。别人嫌你讲得太干、要你多说点细节时,就可以说 You have to embellish,「润色话语」就用它。
you buy the experience。意思是花高价买的不是东西本身,而是这段经历,旅游、看演出、吃高级餐厅都能用。
通常不是。它是冷嘲,等于「这话可真让人开心」,实际在讽刺对方刚说了个丧气或吓人的话。听电影里那股阴阳怪气的语气就懂了。
