常来某个地方
I saw you from over there. I didn't know you came to this club a lot.The Social Network · 2010 — 第 13 / 23 章 · 2'22" · B2
夜店里,埃丽卡径直走到马克面前,当面追问网上那些话;她形容网络留言 written in ink(无法收回),写下就擦不掉,还说那也没拦住人把话发出去——It didn't stop you from writing it(那没拦住你写下来)。马克只能低声认错。想学怎么怼回伤人的话、怎么说「覆水难收」,这段最有力。
夜店里,埃丽卡走来质问马克,为什么要那样在网上写她。她说这是她唯一想要的解释,可马克只想拉她换地方私聊,被她拒绝。她一句句点破:It didn't stop you from writing it(那没拦住你写下来)、The Internet's not written in pencil, it's written in ink(互联网不是用铅笔写的,是用墨水写的),还有 I was nice to you. Don't torture me for it(我对你很好,别因此折磨我)。马克低声道歉,埃丽卡转身离开。随后宿舍开会,马克宣布扩张:Okay, we are expanding to Yale and Columbia(我们要扩到耶鲁和哥伦比亚),最后还点名斯坦福,It's time for them to see this in Palo Alto(该让帕洛阿尔托那边看见了)。

常来某个地方
I saw you from over there. I didn't know you came to this club a lot.单独跟某人说话
Could I talk to you alone for a second?就一下下、占用片刻
Could I talk to you alone for a second?talk to you 连成一串,t 变轻,to you 滑成 tə-jə,中间不换气。
Could I talk to you alone for a second?听说过某事
I don't know if you heard about this new website I launched.在网上
- The Facebook? - You called me a bitch on the Internet, Mark.on the Internet 里 the 常弱化为 /ðə/,整串轻快滑过,重音落在 In 上。
- The Facebook? - You called me a bitch on the Internet, Mark.贱人、婊子——针对女性的侮辱性骂词,攻击性极强;本场 Erica 是复述马克在网上这样叫她,用来对质。任何正式或私人的场合都不该用它称呼别人。
- The Facebook? - You called me a bitch on the Internet, Mark.最后做了某事
I didn't end up doing that.阻止某人做某事
It didn't stop you from writing it.stop 结构:stop you from writing 把「你」和「写」拆成两段:不是停下你的动作,而是让你没法写成。from 后面必须跟动词的动名词形式,换成不定式就错了。这场里它是在说:你没真的动手做,但也没妨碍你写出来。
It didn't stop you from writing it.从脑子里一个接一个冒出来
As if every thought that tumbles through your head was so cleveras if 从句:as if 引出一个和事实相反的假设,后面用过去时 was 表示并不是真的。so clever 再把这份假设夸到顶:好像你每个念头都聪明到配得上被公开。整句用虚拟口气,讽刺就落在「好像」两个字上。
As if every thought that tumbles through your head was so clever简直是罪过(夸张语气)
it would be a crime for it not to be shared.写进墨水、无法收回
Erica 在酒吧对 Mark 说 The Internet's not written in pencil, Mark, it's written in ink,把他发出去的话判成收不回的账。
The Internet's not written in pencil, Mark, it's written in ink,written in ink 里词尾的 n 直接连上 in,听上去像 writtə-nin-ink,重音落在 ink。
The Internet's not written in pencil, Mark, it's written in ink,没脑子的刻薄玩笑
right before you made some ignorant crack about my family's name, my bra size,before 时间从句:before 引导时间从句,先交代一件事发生在另一件事之前。这里它把顺序钉死:你先写下那篇东西,紧接着才轮到你拿她家里的姓氏和身材开玩笑。before 一出口,两件事的先后就成了指控的一部分。
right before you made some ignorant crack about my family's name, my bra size,根据、基于
and then rated women based on their hotness.胡说、鬼话、放屁——粗口,直接判定对方说的话不值一听;朋友之间半开玩笑可用,职场、课堂、对长辈绝对不能用。
You write your snide bullshit from a dark room because that's what the angry do nowadays.阴阳怪气、带刺的——形容讥讽话里藏着恶意,常搭配评论、评语这类词;偏书面口语,用来批评刻薄,不能当成夸人幽默。
You write your snide bullshit from a dark room because that's what the angry do nowadays.因为某事反过来折磨某人
I was nice to you. Don't torture me for it.对某人无礼
I don't wanna be rude to my friends.wanna 是 want to 吞掉 t、并成一个词的读法,口语里比 want to 自然得多。
I don't wanna be rude to my friends.祝某事顺利(此处是嘲讽)
Good luck with your video game.负责、主管某事
Mark 分配任务,对 Chris 说 you're gonna be in charge of publicity and outreach,把宣传和对外联络交给他。
Chris, you're gonna be in charge of publicity and outreach,从做某事入手
and you could start by getting a story in the BU student newspaper.取决于某事
Chris is director of publicity, and his compensation will depend on how much work he ends up doing.名词性从句:how much work he ends up doing 整个短语当作 depend on 的宾语,顺序是先疑问词 how much,再是主语 he,动词放到最后。中文会先说「做多少活」,英文这里必须倒过来,做题时常错在把 do 提前。
Chris is director of publicity, and his compensation will depend on how much work he ends up doing.该让某人看到某事的时候了
It's time for them to see this in Palo Alto.The Internet's not written in pencil, Mark, it's written in ink,互联网不是用铅笔写的,马克,是用墨水写的。 用铅笔和墨水一笔分开网上的字和纸上的字:铅笔能擦,墨水擦不掉。她不是在谈工具,是在说你说出口的东西永远留在那里。
I was nice to you. Don't torture me for it.我对你很好。别拿这个来折磨我。 最重的一句反击:我没有错待你,你凭什么把伤害加回来。它把「我本可以不好」变成对方欠下的账。
It didn't stop you from writing it.那也没拦住你把它写出来。 一句话拆掉「我又没真的做」的辩解:没做不等于没写,书写本身就是行为。冷得像陈述,却堵死退路。
You write your snide bullshit from a dark room because that's what the angry do nowadays.你躲在黑屋子里写那些阴阳怪气的屁话,因为如今愤怒的人就是这么干的。 把躲在屏幕背后放冷箭这件事一刀剖开:不是因为有道理,只是愤怒的人如今都这么干。骂得很狠,落点却在整个时代。
字面是「用墨水写的」,跟用铅笔写相对,指一旦写下就擦不掉、收不回。台词里用它讲网络发言:发出去的话就是白纸黑字,赖不掉。
in charge of。台词里 Chris, you're gonna be in charge of publicity and outreach(克里斯,你负责宣传和外联)就是给某人分派职责的常用说法。
意思是「最后落到、结果是」,强调事情最终的走向。台词里说报酬取决于他 end up doing 多少工作,就是「最后实际做了多少」。
Don't torture me for it。torture 是「折磨」,for it 指「因为这件事」。台词里说自己当初待她不薄,别反过来拿这个折磨他,语气里满是委屈。
表面是「祝你的电子游戏好运」,实际是挖苦,暗示对方做的东西不登大雅之堂。用它给这场对话收尾,礼貌又扎人。
