这场戏：倒计时时溜出去透气
第 12 章 · 共 20 章 · 2'43"
新年倒计时到一半，哈利和莎莉溜出去透气，后来朋友撮合他们相亲。莎莉担心两个人 hit it off（一见就合得来）后反而会 drift apart（渐渐疏远），哈利却坚持说他们只是朋友，还问既然她那么好，怎么不 taking her out（约她出去）。想学怎么聊暧昧、怎么解释只是朋友，这些句子很实用。

❝ 独白 · 9 句 玛丽的一见钟情
从营长讲到联谊、再收在一只好瓜上，节奏松弛，越平常越动人。
他说 We're just friends（我们只是朋友）
hit it off 一见就合得来drift apart 渐渐疏远taking her out 约她出去just friends 只是朋友
新年倒计时的十、九、八里，两人溜出派对透气，算是把这个热闹的夜晚留给了彼此。故事随后切到几对老夫老妻的回忆：有人说自己一眼认定对方，就像挑瓜时那种说不清的直觉。玛丽则讲她为了亚瑟，自己给自己送花、写了张卡片摆在桌上，结果他压根没来。另一边，朋友想撮合哈利和莎莉，莎莉担心两个人 hit it off（一见就合得来）后，反而会 drift apart（渐渐疏远）；哈利嘴上说他们只是朋友，还反问既然她那么好，怎么不 taking her out（约她出去）。想学怎么聊暧昧、怎么用英语解释「只是朋友」，这些说法都能直接搬用。
A1–C2 是欧标等级。点一个等级后，比它高的卡片会变淡，播放到那里不会自动暂停。
“I knew the way you know about a good melon.”
那种明白，就像你一挑就知道是不是好瓜。
用挑瓜这种最日常的动作，说清一眼认定的直觉，朴素又准。
the way you know ...
想形容一种说不清却笃定的直觉时用；正式写作里少用这种口水比喻。
The way you just know when something is right. ／ You know it the way you know your own name.
中性
the way you know 连读，good 重读，melon 放轻收尾。
I knew it was the one, the way you know about a good melon. 我一眼就知道是它了，就像挑到好瓜那种笃定。
“- He's never gonna leave her! - Of course he isn't.”
——他永远不会离开她！——他当然不会。
一句话把等待已婚男人的绝望说穿，越肯定越心酸。
Someone is never gonna ...
朋友反复抱着不切实际的指望时用；对当事人直说会有点扎心。
He is never going to leave her. ／ That man will never walk out on his wife.
口语
never gonna 连读，her 重读，句尾先扬后落。
Face it, he's never gonna leave her. 认清吧，他永远不会离开她。
“I can't believe I'm doing this.”
我不敢相信我居然要这么做。
明明是自己做的决定，还忍不住吐槽自己，特别像真人的心理。
I can't believe I'm ...
自己在做荒唐或冲动的事时脱口而出；正式场合别说。
I can't believe I'm actually saying this. ／ I can't believe I let myself do this.
口语
can't believe I'm 连读，this 稍拖长表示无奈。
I can't believe I'm standing in line at midnight for a burger. 我不敢相信我半夜排队就为了买个汉堡。
“How many times do I have to tell you? We're just friends.”
要我跟你说多少遍？我们只是朋友。
重复的辩解成了关系里最可疑的台词，越强调越像欲盖弥彰。
How many times do I have to tell you? We're just ...
被反复追问、想强调立场时能用；带情绪，对长辈或客户说会显得不耐烦。
I've told you a hundred times, we're just friends. ／ How often do I have to say this?
口语
How many times 连读上扬，have to 读成 hafta，just friends 重读收尾。
How many times do I have to tell you? I'm just tired. 要我说几遍？我只是累了。
Well, he was the head counselor at the boys' camp... and I was the head counselor at the girls' camp. They had a social one night, and he walked across the room. I thought he was coming to talk to my friend Maxine... 'cause people were always crossing rooms to talk to Maxine. But he was coming to talk to me, and he said... "I'm Ben Small of the Coney Island Smalls." At that moment, I knew. I knew the way you know about a good melon.
嗯，他当时是男孩夏令营的营长…… 而我是女孩夏令营的营长。 有天晚上两营办联谊，他穿过整个房间走过来。 我以为他是来跟我朋友玛克辛搭话的…… 因为总有人穿过房间去跟玛克辛说话。 可他是冲我来的，他说…… “我是康尼岛斯莫尔家的本·斯莫尔。” 就在那一刻，我明白了。 那种明白，就像你一挑就知道是不是好瓜。
下一章 · 13get over yourself别自以为是这场戏：饭局上撮合又抬杠意思是「一见就合得来、一见面就投缘」。莎莉担心两人 hit it off 之后反而疏远，就是在说万一真来电了，朋友关系会变。
drift apart。指的是没有吵架、也没正式绝交，只是慢慢没联系、越来越远，朋友和情侣之间都常用。
意思是「约某人出去」。Why aren't you taking her out 就是「你怎么不约她出去」，常用来戳破「只是朋友」的说法。
意思是「坦然接受、不介意」。说自己 comfortable with the fact that it's just me and my work，就是已经能接受生活里只有自己和工作的状态。
意思是「过来、来串门」，指到某人家里或到某人所在的地方。台词里 he never even came over 就是「他压根没过来」。
