《MODERN LOVE》S01E01| 看美剧学点实用表达

01 WHEN DOOR MAN IS YOUR MAIN MAN

00:03:16,430 -->00:03:17,250

Save it .

省省吧，得了吧。

00:03:17-->00:03:18

He is not for you.

他不适合你。

00:03:38,290 -->00:03:40,820

God, I looked so good tonight,okay? I was so funny. I was scintillating.

我今晚可美了，好吗？我可风趣了。我妙语连珠。

scintillating : 生动有趣的，才华横溢的，有一种闪着火花的感觉

00:06:06,730 -->00:06:09,350

I'm like a Wikipedia pagewith legs.

我就像长腿的维基页。

说一个人就像长腿的百科全书，就可以用类似的表达，比如He is like a walking encyclopedia.

00:05:16,340 -->00:05:17,370

It's not my whole life.

我又不光等着这个。

比如别人问你干没干某件事，但你觉得这件事不重要，就可以这么说。

00:08:02,840 -->00:08:04,040

Another day, another dollar?

又是新的一天。

类似于我们所说的“做一天和尚撞一天钟”，但也不算是偷懒的意思，主要表达生活平淡无奇，像往常一样。

00:08:27,330 -->00:08:28,900

Just popped out to get us some breakfast.

出去给咱们买早餐了。

pop out ：短暂地离开一下

还有一个pop in，意思是 突然进来，突然出现，在《致命女人》里出现过几次，比如Jade想到了纵火的故事情节，就说the idea just popped into my head.

总之，pop给人一种“嘭”的感觉，不管是in还是out，都速度很快。

00:09:26,300 -->00:09:28,500

Right. He seems like such a nice chap.

好 他看上去很不错。

chap:伙计，老兄

这种称呼的方式还有很多，比如fam/buddy/dude

00:09:02,490 -->00:09:04,140

I'm only thinking of your interests.

我只是为你考虑。

00:10:34,500 -->00:10:35,320

No complaints.

挺好的。

00:10:40,000 -->00:10:43,670

好 你知道'昙花一现'

Okay. Um, do you know where the term

00:10:43,670 -->00:10:45,030

这个俗语怎么来的吗

'flash in the pan'comes from?

flash in the pan：昙花一现

00:11:23,250 -->00:11:25,300

你的直觉好准  古兹敏

Your instincts are very spot-on, Guzmin.

spot-on：准确无误的

 

00:11:25,300 -->00:11:26,490

有点可怕

It's sort of uncanny.

uncanny：异常的，难以解释的，可以用来替换unbelievable。

00:15:15,110 -->00:15:16,850

你必须对你的生活负责

You must own your actions in life.

比如你得为自己的毕业论文负责，就可以说：I must own my actions in the thesis.

00:15:20,570 -->00:15:22,060

养大个孩子需要一个村子

A village brings up a child.

为什么选这句，我也不知道，总之养孩子不易啊

00:15:26,700 -->00:15:29,230

明天又是新的一天  充满新的可能

Tomorrow is a brand-new day that's never been touched.

00:15:48,270 -->00:15:51,390

你一直很尽心地保护我

You have made such a big thing out of protecting me

00:15:51,400 -->00:15:53,900

不受这些坏男人的伤害

from all these bad men,

00:15:53,900 -->00:15:57,260

但现在你好像又鼓励我独立生活

and now it's like you're encouraging me to live life alone.

made such a big thing out of ：过分看重，过度用心对待

00:24:59,990 -->00:25:01,650

真对不起  突然就开了个会

Oh, I'm so sorry. That meeting came up from out of nowhere.

out of nowhere：忽然，突然出现

这个短语在《致命女人》里面也出现过，有人开车撞了小女孩Emily，肇事司机和Emily的父亲Rob说：She came out of nowhere.

00:29:30,460 -->00:29:32,330

-好简单啊  -别搞砸了

-Well, that was easy. - Don't blow it.

blow it：搞砸

《致命女人》里面Amy不想让她父母在男朋友家人面前出丑，就说了：I don't allow you to blow it up!
