请原谅我冒昧登门
I hope you'll forgive this intrusion, but I..The Shop Around the Corner · 1940 — 第 15 / 19 章 · 6'01" · B2
生病的女店员正躺在床上,男同事登门探望,先客套再斗嘴。她一句 not in the same planet(根本不在同一个世界)直接把天聊死,对方却回敬说 can't help but admire(不由得佩服)她这股嘴上的功夫。想吐槽「我们根本聊不到一块去」,这句话又狠又俏皮,学着用。
女店员生病在家,男同事登门探望,一进门先说 forgive this intrusion(请原谅我冒昧登门),又客套地说自己是店里负责人、像这个小家庭的父亲。她却一点不领情,回了一句 not in the same planet(根本不在同一个世界),把两人聊不到一块说得又准又狠。对方没生气,反而说自己 can't help but admire(不由得打心底佩服)她这种表达方式。之后她读完信心情大好,保证明天回店里 on one's toes(随时待命、打起精神)。想学职场客套、又想学会用漂亮话回敬别人,这场戏几句都值得记。
这场戏看什么
留意这几个短语
not in the same planetcan't help but admireput a man in his planeton one's toes
本章短语
根本不在同一个世界、想法天差地别living in a completely different reality
克拉利克把她的低落轻描淡写地说成心理问题,诺瓦克小姐立刻用 not in the same planet 把人顶了回去,暗示两人根本不在一个层次上。
When it comes to politics, my brother and I are not in the same planet.在政治这件事上,我弟弟和我根本不在同一个星球上。
不由得打心底佩服
把一个人打发回他自己的星球
保持警觉、随时准备行动

请原谅我冒昧登门
I hope you'll forgive this intrusion, but I..负责管理店里
Being in charge of the shop, I feel more as like a father to our little family, I..康复、好起来
So, you better get well.一两天内
I'm sure I'll be alright in a day or two.in a 连作 /ɪnə/,day 和 or 滑成 /deɪər/,末尾 two 轻收成 /tu/。
I'm sure I'll be alright in a day or two.或多或少有点责任
...because I-I feel more or less responsible for the whole thing.让你安心、放下心
Oh, no, Mr. Kralik. Oh, no. I think I can relieve your mind.不是你的错
It wasn't your fault at all.ought to 表应该:ought to 用来说按情理应该做的事,语气比一般的建议更重,带一点提醒甚至责备。这里克拉利克旁敲侧击,劝诺瓦克小姐请个医生,把关心包在疑问句里说出来,留了余地。
Well, don't you think you oughta call a doctor?可以说是……
No, my trouble is what one might call...psychological.走出来、摆脱出来
Well, it's my own personal problem and I'll come out of it.真可惜、真遗憾
It's a shame you have to go through all this.只要……
Of course, as long as it's only psychological, you won't..不由得打心底佩服
被对方借话挖苦之后,克拉利克不恼反夸,说自己虽是受害者,却不得不佩服对方表达得妙。
Although I'm the victim of your remark I can't help but admire the exquisite way you have of expressing yourself.你表达自己的那套方式
Although I'm the victim of your remark I can't help but admire the exquisite way you have of expressing yourself.把一个人打发回他自己的星球
克拉利克接着自己的星球比喻往下接,夸诺瓦克小姐很会把人送回各自的位置,其实是把她的讽刺又递了回去。
You certainly know how to put a man in his planet.你能顺道来一趟真是客气
Oh. W-well, Mr. Kralik it certainly was kind of you to drop in.尽管去做好了
I have nothing to do. No. Go right ahead and read the letter.你要是不介意的话
- 'If you don't mind.' - No, not at all.don't 末尾的 t 在 mind 前面被吞掉,听起来像 don-mind,中间那一下爆破几乎听不见。
- 'If you don't mind.' - No, not at all.保持警觉、随时准备行动
诺瓦克小姐读完那封信后整个人活了过来,向克拉利克保证明天就回店里,而且会打起精神、比以前更卖力。
Mr. Kralik, I can promise you I'll be back in the shop tomorrow and I'll be on my toes!on 和 my 连读,听起来像 on-my,重音落在 toes 上,收得轻快有力。
Mr. Kralik, I can promise you I'll be back in the shop tomorrow and I'll be on my toes!你变化可真大
Well! That's quite a change in you.生你的气
You know, if I weren't feeling so happy I'd be very annoyed with you.第二条件句表与现在相反:从句用过去式、主句用过去将来式,表示与眼下事实相反:其实我现在很高兴,所以并不生气。她先用这个说法缓和一下,再把昨晚被搅黄约会的事摆出来,责怪的意味就轻轻落地了。
You know, if I weren't feeling so happy I'd be very annoyed with you.must have 表对过去的推测:用 must 加完成式,表示对已经发生的事做出很有把握的推断:他一定是这么想的。它把猜测说得几乎像结论,常用来替对方当时的反应下判断,语气笃定。
He must have. Listen.你应该告诉我、你欠我个交代
"Tell me and be frank. I think you owe it to me.女人会为之倾心的那种人
He's just the type women fall for."没多像个男人、算不上什么
He doesn't seem to be much of a man, this friend of yours.who 引导的定语从句:who 从句用来限定前面那种人,说明这种人不会做什么。诺瓦克小姐借这个结构替那位先生辩护:他属于懂分寸的那一类,绝不会不请自来。定语的限定一加,反驳就变得从容而有底气。
He's not the type of man who would walk up to a table uninvited.没什么两样、无关紧要
Oh, well, that doesn't make any difference.冒很大的风险
Oh, Miss Novak, now, you're taking an awful chance. Oh, yes.喜欢得不得了
Oh, I'm sure he'd be crazy about it.尽管如此、话虽如此
No, just the same, I'm gonna give him a cigarette box.祝你圣诞快乐
Except that I wish you a Merry Christmas. Both of you.Mr. Kralik, it's true we're in the same room but we're not in the same planet.克拉利克先生,我们确实在同一个房间里,但不在同一个星球上。 用房间和星球的反差,把「同处一室却全然不懂彼此」说得又准又俏皮。它不直接骂人,却让对方无处反驳,适合任何想温柔地划清界限的场合。
And when he opens it, there you are.他一打开钱包,您就在那里了。 一句话把物件变成了思念:钱包一打开,照片里的人就出现。它短、温柔、有画面,用来推销也好,用来形容牵挂也好,都让人会心一笑。
Well, it's difficult to explain a man like him to a man like you.唉,像他这样的男人,很难向您这样的男人解释清楚。 同一句话里重复「您这样的男人」,表面在解释,实际是把两个人放进两个档次。它把轻视包在礼貌里,讽刺得不动声色,是这类嘴上功夫的教科书。
It's amazing what one letter can do.真没想到一封信能带来这么大的变化。 一句把纸和命运连起来的小感叹:同样的一个人,几天前还卧床不起,一封信念完就活了过来。它适合形容消息、鼓励或一句好话带来的转变,轻巧却很有余味。
字面是「不在同一个星球」,实际是说两个人想法、层次差得太远,根本聊不到一块去,比 I don't understand you 更夸张,也更俏皮。
can't help but admire。can't help but 后面接动词原形,表示忍不住要做某事,所以「忍不住佩服」「忍不住笑」都用这个结构。
不是。on one's toes 是「保持警觉、随时准备行动」,戏里她保证回店里以后会 on her toes,就是打起精神、随时待命。
forgive this intrusion,字面意思是请原谅我这样打扰,用在没提前打招呼就上门、或打断别人时,语气比 sorry to bother you 更正式。
can't help but admire 多了一层「忍不住」,强调佩服是自然流露、不是客套;I admire 只是平静地陈述佩服。想显得真心,就用 can't help but。
