Larry 跟李华一起去夜总会参加圣诞节Party.今天我们要学两个常用语:obliterated
和smashed.
(Party NAT )
LL: Look at that guy over there. He is obliterated.
LH:等等Larry , obliterated是什么意思?
LL: Yeah , you know Obliterated : smashed, trashed, blotto ,
three sheets to the wind.
LH: What ?你怎么越说我越糊涂了!
LL: That guy is drunk, Li Hua.
LH:哦,我知道了。Obliterated ,就是喝醉的意思。可那人好象一晚上都
在喝苹果汁啊?
LL: I'm pretty sure that is alcoholic cider.
LH:你是说那里面搀酒了?你肯定吗?
(Drunken Male Voice): I'm OK !
LL: I'd venture to say yes , that guy is obliterated.
LH:他怎么会醉成这个样子呢?
LL: Well it is the holidays.
LH:他最好不是开车来的。
LL: I hope not. You can get in a lot of trouble if you drive while
you're obliterated, and at Christmas time, there's sure to be tons of
police on the streets.
LH:就他现在这样,恐怕连车钥匙都找不到了,所以不用担心。
LL: This is a pretty raucous party. I'd say a lot of people look
like they are en route to becoming obliterated.
LH:是啊,这么热闹的圣诞晚会,想必最后不会有几个人是清醒的。
LL: Yeah , I'd say that's fair assessment.
LH:说到这儿,今天晚上你好象一直在喝蛋酒嘛!
LL: And that is why I took the metro here.
LH: Larry,你脸红极了。You are obliterated.
LL: I'm NOT obliterated, but I do feel very cheerful.
LH:看你现在的脸色,换身衣服就是圣诞老人!
LL:(Imitating Santa ) Merry Christmas. HO HO HO. So what do you
say , should we hang around here and get progressively obliterated ,
or head out and see where the night takes us?
LH:我无所谓,走也行,不走也行。不过,我可要警告你,如果继续待下去,
用不了多久,你可能就跟那个人差不多了。
LL: Very funny , Lihua. Well how about we hang around a bit more
and then decide what to do?
LH:好,那就再待一会儿。
*******
一小时过后。
LH: Larry,你看,好多人都喝多了。
LL: Yeah , everyone's smashed.
LH:一点没错。不管认不认识,所有人都在相互碰杯,用不了多久,杯子一
定会碎。
LL: What ? No. Smashed is just another word for drunk.
LH:真的吗?Smashed 也是喝醉的意思?原来喝醉酒有这么多种说法。
LL: Speaking of which, I think you might be a little bit smashed.
LH:我?怎么可能!你才醉了呢!You're the smashed one.
LL: You are quite mistaken. I never overdo it at parties. I am always
the designated driver.
LH:你敢说自己一点儿没醉?
LL: No at all. I am completely sober.
LH: Hmm. 那好吧,不过,这儿除了咱俩儿,恐怕真没几个清醒的了。
LL: That is completely correct. I guess everyone decided to go crazy
at Christmas time. That's why everyone is so smashed at this party tonight.
LH: I on the other hand……
LL: Are, in fact, smashed?
LH:醉?我真的没醉。要不,趁咱们还清醒,撤吧?我怎么觉得头有点儿晕,
房子有点儿转啊?
LL: I thought you weren't smashed. Haha. So you want to head out
of here ?
LH:我好象真有点儿不行了。
LL: OK. Let me find my coat.
今天李华学了两个常用语。一个是Obliterated 和smashed ,两个都是喝醉
了的意思。
