宣布遗嘱女儿被除名：lay all the cards on the table

办公室里，一开场就要 lay all the cards on the table（把底牌亮出来），念出遗嘱：利奥把女儿辛迪 disinherit（剥夺继承权），财产留给市政公园。对方当场炸了，一句 I'm not taking care of him if I'm not getting anything（拿不到东西我就不照顾他）说漏了真实目的。想学谈判摊牌和念条款的英语，这段就是。

发生了什么

谈判一开始气氛还算客气，一句 settle this in an amicable way（心平气和地谈妥）先定下基调；随后对方决定 lay all the cards on the table（把底牌亮出来）。遗嘱念出来：利奥把女儿辛迪 disinherit（剥夺继承权），一分钱没留，全捐给市政公园系统，还想让镇上的公园以自己名字命名。当事人当场失控，脱口说出真话：I'm not taking care of him if I'm not getting anything（拿不到东西我就不照顾他）。律师说要跟委托人商量，会谈就此草草结束。leave it to 是「把财产留给谁」，念遗嘱、分遗产时最常用；disinherit 是「剥夺继承权」；to that end 是「为此」。想学正式场合的谈判和摊牌英语，这一场很完整。

既然；由于

And I'm afraid that that can't change now that he's been declared incapacitated.
语法 · C1that can't change now that he's been declared incapacitated

now that 表原因加被动完成：now that 引出既然出现的新情况，后面用现在完成时的被动语态说明老人已被法院宣告；整句表示这个事实定下来以后，遗嘱就改不了了。

And I'm afraid that that can't change now that he's been declared incapacitated.
发音now that

now that 里 now 的尾音和 that 连读，听起来像一个词。

有人追问老人到底把遗产留给了谁，迈克随后才说出遗产其实给了市政的公园系统。

Then who did he leave it to? Kyle?

leave it to 里 it 的 t 在两个元音之间变成弹舌音，接近 leave-i-to。

Then who did he leave it to? Kyle?
短语 · C1dedicate something in someone's name

以他的名字命名

He wanted the town park dedicated in his name.
语法 · C1He wanted the town park dedicated in his name

want something done 结构：want 后面接宾语再加过去分词，表示希望某物被别人怎样处理，动作由他人完成；这里说明老人想把镇上的公园以他的名字来命名。

He wanted the town park dedicated in his name.
短语 · B1care about something

在乎；关心

He never cared about a fucking thing except himself and his goddamn fucking money!
语法 · B2He never cared about a fucking thing except himself

never 加一般过去时加 except：never 与一般过去时连用，表示过去从来没有过；except 把唯一的例外挑出来，说明他除了自己谁都不在乎，情绪在否定里集中爆发。

He never cared about a fucking thing except himself and his goddamn fucking money!
俚语 · C1goddamn

该死的；混账（咒骂词）——带宗教色彩的粗话，用来发泄愤怒或加强语气；只在极熟的人或情绪失控时说，正式场合和对长辈绝不能用。

He never cared about a fucking thing except himself and his goddamn fucking money!
短语 · B2discuss something with someone

跟某人商量这件事

I need to discuss this with my client. Understood.
短语 · B1be finished here

这边谈完了

Oh, my God. Uh, we're finished here, Mike.

短语 · B2leave something with someone

那份留给你

Understand completely. I'm gonna leave that with you.

看懂「宣布遗嘱女儿被除名」

这一章能学到

  • 学会 cards on the table 表摊牌
  • 见到 disinherited 知是剥夺继承
  • 会用 take care of 说照顾某人
  • 听懂 to that end 是收束目的
  • 见到 incapacitated 知无行为能力

发音重点

  • to that end — to that end 里 to 和 that 连读，that 的尾音又和 end 连上，整串很顺。
  • now that — now that 里 now 的尾音和 that 连读，听起来像一个词。
  • leave it to — leave it to 里 it 的 t 在两个元音之间变成弹舌音，接近 leave-i-to。
  • finished here — finished here 里 finished 的尾音和 here 相接，读得很紧，中间几乎不停。
Cindy, your father disinherited you from his will, completely.

辛迪，你父亲在遗嘱里把你彻底剥夺了继承权。 用完全这个词加在句末，把事实钉死，不留解释的余地。最伤人的宣告，往往用最冷静、最像公文的口吻说出。

He wanted the town park dedicated in his name.

他想把镇上的公园以他的名字命名。 不留给女儿，不留给外孙，只留一个名字刻在公园上。一个人的孤独和虚荣，被这一句安排说得清清楚楚。

He never cared about a fucking thing except himself and his goddamn fucking money!

他从来就没在乎过任何一件他妈的事，除了他自己和他那该死的钱！ 连用两个粗话做强调，把积压多年的恨一次倒出来。语言越失控，越说明这句话背后是真的伤痛。

Discuss? I'm not taking care of him if I'm not getting anything.

商量？我要是什么都得不到，就不会去照顾他。 先把对方的体面说法顶回去，再赤裸裸地开出条件。这句话撕掉了前面所有的客套，也点出整场争夺的核心。

关于这一章的问题

lay all the cards on the table 是什么意思？

字面是「把牌全摊到桌上」，意思是开诚布公、把知道的都说出来。谈判或摊牌前说这句，等于宣布接下来不藏着掖着。

disinherit 是什么意思？

「剥夺继承权」，指在遗嘱里特意不留财产给某个人。说某人被 disinherit，就是他被踢出了遗嘱。

「把财产留给某人」英语怎么说？

leave it to someone，比如 he left it to the parks system 就是「他把它留给了公园系统」。遗嘱里分配财产最常用这个说法。

to that end 怎么用？

意思是「为此、为了这个目的」，用来承接前面说的目标，再引出具体做法，偏正式，会议和文书里常见。

in an amicable way 是什么语气？

amicable 是「友好的、心平气和的」，in an amicable way 就是「和和气气地」。谈判开场说它，是希望别撕破脸。
