❷ 影片《加勒比海盜》中的俚語(經典對白)
Norrington: Keep your guns on him, men. Gillette, fetch some irons. Well, well... Jack Sparrow, isnt it? <BR>Jack: Captain Jack Sparrow, if you please, sir. <BR>Norrington: Well, I don't see your ship...Captain? <BR>Jack: I'm in the market as it were. <BR>Private1: He said he'd come to commandeer one. <BR>Private2: Told ya he was telling the truth. These are his, sir. <BR>Norrington: No additional shots nor powder. A compass that doesnt point north. And I half expected it to be made of wood. You are, without doubt, the worst pirate I've ever heard of. <BR>Jack: But you have heard of me. <BR>Elizabeth: Commodore, I really must protest. <BR>Norrington: Carefully Lieutenant. <BR>Elizabeth: Pirate or not this man saved my life. <BR>Norrington: One good deed is not enough to redeem a man of a lifetime of wickedness. <BR>Jack: Though it seems enough to condemn him. <BR>Norrington: Indeed. <BR>Jack: Finally. <BR>Gov. Swann: No, no! Don't shoot! <BR>Jack: I knew you'd warm up to me. Commodore Norrington, my effects, please. And my hat. Commodore! Elizabeth, it is Elizabeth, isn't it? <BR>Elizabeth: It's Miss Swann. <BR>Jack: Miss Swann, if you'd be so kind. Come, come, dear, we don't have all day. Now if you'll be very kind. Easy on the goods, darling. <BR>Elizabeth: You're despicable. <BR>Jack: Sticks and stones, love. I saved your life, you saved mine, we're square. Gentlemen, milady. You will always remember this as the day that you almost caught...Capitan Jack Sparrow. <BR>Will: You're the one they're hunting. The pirate. <BR>Jack: You seem somewhat familiar. Have I threatened you before? <BR>Will: I make a point of avoiding familiarity with pirates. <BR>Jack: Ah. Well, then it would be a shame to put a black mark on your record. So, if you'll excuse me. Do you think this wise, boy, crossing blades with a pirate? <BR>Will:You threatened Miss Swann. <BR>Jack: Only a little. You know what you're doing, I'll give you that. Excellent form. But how's your footwork? If I step here...Very good. Now I step again. Ta. <BR>妙語佳句,活學活用 <BR>1. In the market <BR>這里 Jack Sparrow 的意思是說他一直想有一條,而且以前他也有一條船(the Black Pearl)。In the market 意為"Wanting to possess, eager to have, seeking",表示想擁有的東西時,用for 接名詞表示,例如:The crowd was in the market for more entertainment. <BR>2. Half expect <BR>Half expect 基本上是表示一種否定,和說話人所設想的情況的否定,例如:And I half expected it to be made of wood. 我還以為它(劍)是木頭的呢。 <BR>3. Warm up to <BR>Warm up 通常指在體育運動前的熱身,但在這里的意思為"Become friendlier or more receptive toward",例如:I had a hard time warming up to my mother-in-law.<BR>4. Sticks and stones.<BR>我不認為你的話會傷了我。 <BR>這是一句很長的英文句子的開頭,原話是這樣的:Stick and stone may break my bones, but names will never hurt me. 意思是:石頭和棍子能打斷我的骨頭,可是你的話一點也傷不到我。注意這里這個names的意思可不是名字。我們知道英語中罵人是call names,這句話中的names就是取「罵人的惡語」的意思。 <BR>5. Make a point of <BR>意為"Treat something as important or essential",例如:She made a point of thanking everyone in the department for their efforts. <BR>6. Ta <BR>語氣詞,主要用在英國英語中,表示"thanks"。 <BR>

1. kick ass 了不起
A: Wow, you fixed my computer in less than 10 minutes. You're good.
A: 哇! 你不到十分鍾就把我的計算機修好了呀! 你很棒!
B: Yep. I just kick ass.
B: 是的! 我就是厲害!
"kick ass" 除了字面上的「踢*」外, 還有「厲害、打敗」的意思。當「踢*」時, 比如某人放你鴿子, 你很氣, 就可以說:"I'm going to kick his ass." (我得踢他的*)。當「厲害」用時, 就像上面例句一樣用。"kick ass"還可作「打敗某人的意思」。比如某人一向在某方面比你強, 終於有一天你比他厲害了, 你就可以說:"Hahaha...I kicked yourass."。覺得 "ass" 太難聽的人, 就用 "butt" 吧!
2. XYZ 檢查你的拉鏈
Hey, man. XYZ.
老兄啊! 檢查一下你的拉鏈吧。
"XYZ" 是 "Check your zipper." 的意思。在美國, 填表選項時多用打「X」來表示(台灣則用打勾表示)。這個選項的動作就叫"Check", 也就是這里的XYZ 的 X所代表的。Y 是 Your, Z 就是 Zipper 啰!
3. Hit the road. 上路了
A: Do you want to come in for some tea?
A: 你要不要進來喝個茶呢?
B: No. I'm running late. I really need to hit the road.
B: 不了。我快遲到了, 得上路了。
"running late" 是快遲到了的意思。
"Hit the road" 的 "hit" 有「去」的意思。好比某人每周去健身房三次, 你就可以說 "He hits the gym three times a week."。
"I really need to hit the road." 還可以用說成"I really need to get going."。

"hang out" 是和朋友一起做一些事。看電影、逛街、聊天都算。也不限指異性朋友。
5. click (兩巧派沒人)合得來
I really like talking to her. I think we two really click.
我很喜歡和她說話。我覺得我們兩個蠻合得來的。

A: Excuse me. I have to catch some Zs.
A: 抱歉! 我想小睡一下。

漫畫里的人睡覺, 不是都畫"Z,Z,Z..."來表示嗎? 這里的 "catch some Zs" 就是這樣來的。"I have tocatch some Zs." 也可以羨者說"I have to take a nap." 或 "I need to snooze."。
9. take a mp 上大號
A: Would you mind closing the door? I'm trying to take a mp here.
A: 你可不可以把門關起來呢? 我正在上大號。
B: Well, learn to lock the door next time. www.rr365.com
B: 那麼下次學會把門鎖起來吧!
"mp" 是「丟掉」的意思, 「丟」什麼不必我解釋了吧?
「我要上廁所」(大小號都一樣) 可以說 "I need to use the restroom." 或簡單地說 "I need to go."。
10. crank up 把聲量調大
A: Hey! The volume is too low. Why don't you crank it up some?
A: 嘿! 這聲量太小了。你把它調大一點好嗎?

這里的「聲量調大」也可以說 "turn it up"。意思是一樣的。

B: No. Looks can be deceiving. This thing is actually a no-brainer. Let me show you.
B: 不會! 外表有時是會騙人的。這個東西其實很容易(不必花腦筋的)。我玩給你看!
"Looks can be deceiving." 是「外表有時是會騙人的」的意思。也許你的競爭對方把自己抬高, 表現出很厲害的樣子,你的朋友就可以說"Looks can be deceiving. He may be just a paper tiger."來安慰你。
15. work one's butt off 很努力地(做一件事)
A: I can't believe all my work is gone just like this. I've worked my butt off on this all day.
A: 我不敢相信我的心血就這樣丟掉了!我今天整天辛辛苦苦都在搞這個!
B: What happened? Computer crashed?
B: 怎麼啦? 計算機當了嗎?
發現美語里不少口語都跟"butt"(**)有關, 這里的"workone's butt off" 也是。還有一個"freeze one's butt off"(冷得把**凍僵)也是喔!
16. push around 驅使(某人)
A. Gary, do you think you can rewrite this paper. I don't really like the topic.

B: Hey, I'm only trying to help you out. You shouldn't be pushing me around like this.

「把一個人推來推去」應該和「指使」很容易聯想吧!

A: Have you talked to Mr. Lambert about Ian's obscene speech towards you?
A: 你跟 Lambert 先生提過 Ian 對你講的猥褻的話嗎?
B: Yes, but he brushed it off as if it were not a big deal to him.

A: 噢! 不! 我被分配跟 Marvin 一起做團體作業。
B: Ooh! I heard that he love to boss people around.

"boss around" 和 "push around" 都是「指使人」的意思。說一個人愛命令人也可以說"He is very bossy."。
19. Oh, boy! 乖乖! 唉呀! 真是!
A: Guess what? We first got a flat tire, and now my cell phone is dead.
A: 你猜怎麼了? 首先我門的車爆胎了, 現在我的行動電話又沒電了。
B: Oh, boy!
B: 唉!
"flat tire" 是「爆胎」的意思」。
