补上昨天的先DH709 Part 6 Gaby and the lawyer 谈论是否能够通过匿名举报Grace妈妈而强行让Grace留下来。

片段一：

248
00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:35,410
嗨 我最喜欢的律师
Hey, there's my favorite lawyer.
56
249
00:12:35,410 --> 00:12:37,850
既然碰上了 就给我些好的法律意见
As it happens, I need some good legal advice.
250
00:12:37,880 --> 00:12:39,250
你是指免费的法律意见
You mean free legal advice.
251
00:12:39,250 --> 00:12:42,220
是的 免费的挺好
Well, yeah. Free is good.
252
00:12:42,250 --> 00:12:45,020
让我们假设一下
So let's say hypothetically

讲解：
Hey， there's
对应汉语的
那不是张三吗；瞧瞧，这不是李四吗？
或者是 嗨，你在这呢啊
常用的形式是
hey, there you are.
there comes Jim.
there he comes.
as it happens
碰巧，恰好
类似表达
it happens that
it just so happens that
hypothetically
如果你要表达假如，假想等你用什么，if？这里的例子可以借用
类似表达
i have a hypothetical situation here.
Hypothetically speaking
this is all hypothetical.
say hypothetically there's ##, I want $$.

Here comes today's partDH709 Part 7
仍然是Gaby and the lawyer 谈论是否能够通过匿名举报Grace妈妈而强行让Grace留下来。

片段一：

260
00:13:00,940 --> 00:13:04,850
如果有人匿名向移民局
Now, could the daughter stay here with another family
261
00:13:04,850 --> 00:13:06,520
举报这个母亲
if, say, somebody
262
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:09,410
这个孩子可以跟别的家庭住在一起吗
anonymously reported the mother to immigration?
263
00:13:10,000 --> 00:13:10,970
可以
Yeah,
264
00:13:10,970 --> 00:13:14,610
只要那家人不是打电话举报的那个
as long as it's not the somebody who called immigration,
59
265
00:13:14,610 --> 00:13:15,870
因为理论上说
because hypothetically,
266
00:13:15,900 --> 00:13:17,940
她一定会遭天谴的
she'd be burning in hell.

讲解
could …… reported
不起眼的角落里，你已经邂逅了虚拟语气了。
语法之难，不在于记住几个标准句型以知道怎么样套用造句；
语法之难，难在该用的时候能够想起来用，难在想起来用的时候能够在考虑表达内容的时候不用分心去纠结语法而是自如地正确地调整了时态，这个才是需要练习和学习的。


这一句对应了
If I were the mother of 5 children, I could literally burn out.
if句中用的是动词过去式，表示虚拟，主句中用could，should，would等。


If，say
hypothetical的简洁版


anonymously
an anonymous phone call/letter/
call immigration anonymously.


burn in hell
语气较重的骂人


somebody
hypothetically
这里想说说Gay Lawyer用的这两个单词，重复了Gaby上面用过的单词，你读一遍听听，看看这个重复是不是起到了非常dramatic的效果。
一时举不出恰当的例子，等我想到了补上吧。

提前发了明天的东西以把这个场景讲完 DH709 Part 7
仍然是Gaby and the lawyer 谈论是否能够通过匿名举报Grace妈妈而强行让Grace留下来。

271
00:13:27,100 --> 00:13:29,810
你只要告诉我 我留下她是否合法
Just tell me--is it legal or not for me to keep her?
272
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:31,250
合法 从法律上来讲 是合法的
Yes, technically, it's legal.
273
00:13:31,280 --> 00:13:33,920
但合法并不意味着 这样做是对的
But just because something's legal doesn't make it right.
274
00:13:33,950 --> 00:13:35,510
知道了 老天爷
Okay, jeez!
275
00:13:35,510 --> 00:13:37,220
61
跟我说话没必要这么粗鲁
You don't have to jump down my throat.

technically是个无可替代的词汇
比如 你今天下午5点20就离开办公室了，尽管大家都提前走，每天如此，但是如果老板要拿你出气，你也没办法，因为：
technically， u still went against the company's rules
technically后边跟的都是抠细节，抠文字得出的结果。
记得Friends里有个经典的场景，Ross和Rachel吵架，Rachel发脾气说：let's break up，分手。
Ross很难过，一不小心和另外一个女人睡了一觉，后来很久两人都为此吵架，Rachel总是指责Ross not faithful，Ross则说
We were on a break. technically, it's not cheating.


jezz
除了Jesus， Jesus Christ，My God你还会什么表示惊讶的口头禅，
这一句就很不错，上口，简短，很cool
很类似的一个是
Gee
比如
你不小心移动了一下同事的桌子上的文件，结果他冲你大发脾气，你可以说：
Gee，lighten up. I didn't do anything.
Jezz， lighten up
lighten up是别发那么大火，放松点。


jump down my throat
类似表达
jump on you
比如刚才的文件夹情景，同事可以说
I'm sorry I don't mean to jump on you/jump down your throat/jump on your head.
it's just that I've have some problems lately.
