4. Ross: Ok, ok, now what is wrong with my Snuggles? What, it says I'm a sensitive, warm kinda guy, you know, like a little, fuzzy bear. Ok, I can pick something else up on the way. <BR>Chandler: There you go. <BR>Sensitive是敏感的、灵敏的意思,注意一下其他同根词,sensible是明智的、有判断力的意思,sensational是轰动的、耸人听闻的意思;这里Ross听到Chandler说他的柔顺剂不好时候,进行了反驳,他说“我现在用的柔顺剂又怎么不好了?这表明我是很灵敏、亲切的人啊,就像毛毛熊一样。”pick up的用法也很多,这里是(随便)买的意思。 <BR>There you go口语中也很常见,可用Here/There sb go的句式概括,一般就是表示赞同、赞赏的意思或者相当于here/there you are。 <BR><BR>5. Monica: It is so great to meet a guy who is smart and funny, and has an emotional age beyond, like eight.首先注意一个词组emotional age是“感情成熟年龄”的意思,人的年龄是否真的分为心理年龄和实际年龄啊?如果那样子的话,我看几个老友们的心理年龄估计也只有20来岁。这里Monica对于别人的男朋友几乎一见钟情,说他聪明潇洒、幽默风趣、成熟稳重。最后还来了个like eight,大概是赞他有颗童心吧。 <BR><BR>6. Phoebe: Ok, you can do this. It's just like pulling off a Band-aid. Just do it really fast, and then the wound is exposed. pull off是努力实现、赢得的意思,这里则是用了本意把绷带纱布拉掉的意思。Chandler还在犹豫怎么开口,Phoebe告诉他快刀斩乱麻。 <BR><BR>7. Rachel: Except it didn't. It happened to me. Oh, god, I'm gonna look like a big marshmallow peep. What am I doing? What am I doing? My father's right. I can't live on my own! I can't even do laundry!“except it didn’t”可以当作固定用法记下,意思是“才不是呢”,或者学学港台普通话翻译成“哪有?”,似乎有点撒娇的意思在里面了。Marshmallow peep是mashmallow的一种,样子像小鸡。Marshmallow除了药用蜀葵的意思外,在俚语中还有“胆小懦弱、办事没有效率、做事不起作用的人”的意思,另外,还有“棉花糖”的意思呢。 <BR><BR> |
