所以,今天我想講幾件軼事,都是因?yàn)闆]有理解聽到看到的東西而鬧出的笑話。也許,從他們的經(jīng)驗(yàn)中,你也可以學(xué)到一些東西。
第一個(gè)故事發(fā)生在秘魯,一位美國婦女在餐館里用餐。她問服務(wù)員: Excuse me. Where could I wash my hands? 服務(wù)員把她帶到洗手間,可不巧,正有一些工人在粉刷洗手間的墻壁。
工人們一看有人要用洗手間,就準(zhǔn)備離開。服務(wù)員攔住他們,說: That's Ok. Stay. She only wants to wash her hands. 在英語里,wash my hands實(shí)際上是上廁所的委婉說法。
那個(gè)服務(wù)員按照字面意思理解,結(jié)果鬧了笑話。 還有一次,一個(gè)留學(xué)生在國外的學(xué)校第一天上學(xué),心里又興奮又緊張。
一個(gè)美國人見到一張新面孔,為了表示友好,就問: Hi! What's the good word? 留學(xué)生一聽到這個(gè),立刻傻眼了,他想, My God! I don't know the good word. I've studied English for years, but no one told me about the good word! 他猶豫再三,想,反正我也不知道,就問問他好了。于是他吞吞吐吐地問: Hello. What's the good word? 老美聽了,很隨意地說: Oh, not much. 這下,這個(gè)留學(xué)生就更吃驚了! 原來,What's the good word? 在美語里,是一句問候語,意思是“你還好嗎?”但問話的人并不指望你把遇到的高興的事情都一一告訴他,只是打個(gè)招呼而已。
但這個(gè)留學(xué)生以為對方真的在問什么是Good word,所以鬧了笑話,不過還好,也算給他歪打正著了。 下面的故事就更有意思了。
一次,一個(gè)美國公司的管理人員給公司一個(gè)駐外分部發(fā)了一份。
