(背景:Susan暗恋Mike,又不好意思开口,和她女儿Julie的谈话。)

(SUSAN stands at the kitchen counter, filling a glass filled with water. She takes a sip as she looks out the window. She sees MIKE walking his dog across the road, sighing.) 

(Kitchen counter: 厨房台面 sip: 小口抿  look out the window: 看窗外 walk the dog: 遛狗 walk his dog: 遛(他的)狗 across: 横过 across the road: 横过马路,即马路对面 sigh:叹气)

(Susan站在厨房台面前,装了一杯水。她看向窗外,喝了一小口。她看到Mike在路对面遛狗,叹气。)

-JULIE: Dear Diary, Mike doesn’t even know I’m alive.

diary: 日记 even: 甚至 alive: 活着

“亲爱的日记,Mike 甚至不知道我的存在” 。(一般暗恋都写在日记里,所以Julie打趣她妈妈,假装是Susan的自白,心声。)

-SUSAN: Shut up.

闭嘴

-JULIE: If you wanna date him, you’re gonna have to ask him out.

wanna(=want to): 想要 date: 约会 ask out: 请(某人)外出

如果你想和他约会,就要喊他出来。

-SUSAN: I keep hoping he’ll ask me out.

我一直希望他采取主动。

-JULIE: How’s that going?

结果呢?

-SUSAN: Shouldn’t you be making brownies for your nerdy friends?

brownies: 布朗尼蛋糕 nerdy: 讨厌鬼

你怎么还不为你的狐朋狗友们准备巧克力蛋糕?

-JULIE: I can’t find the measuring cup. Have you seen it?

measuring cup: 量杯

我找不到量杯了,你有看到吗?

-SUSAN: The measuring cup?

量杯?

-JULIE: Yeah.

是啊。

-SUSAN: Hm. Uh, well it’s gotta be here somewhere. Just keep looking.

gotta(=have got to): 必须

我,哦,应该在这的,再找找看。


(The front door opens, and SUSAN walks out, holding a bag of rubbish. She looks like she literally just rolled out of bed. She stifles a yawn as she opens the rubbish bin at the kerb, stuffing the plastic rubbish bag into it. We see MIKE a little distance away behind her, walking his dog again. He turns at the sound of SUSAN dumping the rubbish.)

(rubbish:垃圾 roll:滚 stifle:憋 yawn:哈欠 kerb:马路牙子 stuff...into:塞进 dump:倾倒)

(前门开了,Susan走出来,拿了一大袋垃圾。她看起来刚刚从床上爬起来。她打着哈欠,打开路边的垃圾桶,把塑料垃圾袋塞进去。我们看到Mike在她身后不远的地方,又在遛狗。他听到声音转到Susan扔垃圾的方向。)

-MIKE: Hey Susan.

你好,Susan。

-SUSAN: Mike!

Mike!

-MIKE: What’s wrong?

怎么了?

-SUSAN: I didn’t realize anyone was gonna be out here, I just sorta rolled outta bed.

realize: 意识到 gonna(=going to): 将要 sorta: 有点 roll: 卷 outta: out of

我想可能没人会在这,所以只裹了条毛毯。

-MIKE: I’m sure you look fine.

你看起来很好。

-SUSAN: Oooh.

哦。

(Mike pulls Bongo back as the dog starts barking at SUSAN, who looks startled)

(pull:拉 bark:犬吠 startled: 被惊吓的)

(Mike把Bongo拉回,因为这狗开始朝着Susan叫,Susan看起来被吓到了。)

-MIKE: Ooh, Bongo, Bongo! Shh.. Sorry, uh, he scares easy.

shh: 嘘,安静一点 scare: 惊吓

哦,Bongo,别叫了。对不起,呃,它很容易被吓倒。

-SUSAN: No, it’s fine, I get it.

get it: 理解

没,没关系,知道了,

-MIKE: I didn’t mean to disturb you. I’ll see you later.

mean to: 打算,故意 disturb: 打扰

我没想要打扰你,再见。

-SUSAN: D—do you wanna have dinner with me?

wanna(=want to): 想要

你想和我一起吃晚饭吗?

-MIKE: Just the two of us?

就我们俩?

-SUSAN: Heh, well, and Julie.

heh: (表示惊异、质问)嗨!

呃,还有Julie。

Uh, it’s a thing we do when somebody new moves into the neighborhood, we invite them over for a home-cooked meal. Sort of a tradition.

neighborhood: 邻里 invite: 邀请 invite over: 请(某人)过来 home-cooked meal: 家常菜 sort of: 有几分 tradition: 传统

当有新邻居搬来时,我们会邀请他们来家里吃一顿晚餐,是老传统。

-MIKE: You said you were a lousy cook.

lousy: 差劲的 cook: 厨师

我记得你说过你厨艺不精。

-SUSAN: Well. I order takeout.

order: 订购 takeout: 外卖

那么,我叫外卖。

-MIKE: Oh, you invite them over for a home-cooked meal and you order takeout.

哦,你邀请别人来家里吃饭,然后叫外卖。

-SUSAN: Yeah, it’s sort of a new tradition. I’m working out the kinks.

work out: 解决 kinks: 扭结

是的,这,这是一种新的习俗。我正在解决这个矛盾。

(这里比较难理解,这里的kinks指Susan做饭不好吃又要请人到家里吃饭的矛盾,为了解决这个矛盾,她用了点外卖的方法。)

-MIKE: I’ll tell you what. How  about I cook? And you guys come over to my place.

how about: (什么事情)怎么样 guy: 人 come over: 过来

这样吧,我来做饭。你们来我家吃饭,怎么样?

-SUSAN: Oh. Great.

好极了。

-MIKE: Friday night at six?

星期五晚上六点?

-SUSAN: I’ll be there.

我会准时到的。

-MIKE: Alright.

好的,走吧。

-SUSAN: Bye, Bongo.

再见,Bongo。

-SUSAN: Julie? Mike Delfino just invited us to dinner Friday night.

Julie! Mike Delfino刚刚邀请了我们星期五晚上去吃晚饭。

-JULIE: He did? Cool.

是吗?太棒了。

-SUSAN: But only I’m going.

但是只有我一个人去。

Because you’re gonna come down with something semi-serious that requires bed-rest and fluids.

gonna(=going to): 将要 come down with: 染上(病) semi-: 部分的 require: 需要 bed-rest: 卧床休息 fluid: 液体(这里指输液)
