哈利和莎莉决定当天都改用一种做作的腔调说话，莎莉跟着念那句 Waiter, there is too much pepper on my paprikash（服务员，我的红烩鸡上胡椒放太多了），还学着说 But I would be proud to partake of your pecan pie（但我会很荣幸尝一口你的山核桃派）。镜头一转，两人聊起各自的晚上：莎莉说自己有 hot date（火辣的约会），哈利嘴上说 great（挺好的），却开始讲些没头没脑的话。莎莉劝他 get out there（出去见见人），他说 I would not be good for anybody right now（我现在对谁都不会好）。想学怎么用玩笑绕开暧昧、怎么聊约会，这些说法都能直接搬用。

下一章 · 11downshift into small talk转入闲聊这场戏：餐厅里争论假装高潮意思是「火辣、让人心动的约会」。莎莉用来说自己晚上有安排，哈利一听就忍不住追问，这个词本身带点炫耀和调侃。
get out there。You should get out there too 就是劝对方别老宅着、多出去认识人、多约会，语气鼓励又轻松。
指「重新开始后的第一次约会」，多指离婚或分手后重新回到约会市场。台词说 the first date back is always the toughest，就是这种第一次最难。
意思是「分享、尝一点」，但非常正式、带老派客套味。But I would be proud to partake of your pecan pie 是他们的做作腔调，日常几乎没人这么说，正是笑点。
意思是「猛地扯掉、撕下」。台词 He rips off my clothes 就是「他把我的衣服扯掉」，形容动作又快又猛，也常用于拆包装、撕标签。
