老友记 Friends

台词精讲+知识拓展

Paul:Ever since she walked out on me,I,uh...

walk out on someone可以表示“甩,抛弃某人”，比如：He had a row with his wife and walked out on her.他和他妻子吵架后抛弃了她。甩某人用的最多的是“dump”,dump someone就是甩某人，比如：She dumped him right after she went abroad.她一出国就把他甩了。有一种分手是因为一方劈腿，劈腿英文就是cheat on.比如：After I found that he cheated on me,I dumped him.在我发现他劈腿后，我把他甩了。现在大家可以感受出dump和cheat on的区别了吧。

Monica:What?...what,you wanna spell it out with noodles?

怎么了？你打算边搅面条边讲吗？

spell out表示讲清楚，说清楚。比如：Could you please spell out the details for us?请您为我们详细讲述一下细节好吗？

Rose:Even if I could get it together enough to-to ask a woman out..

就算我鼓起勇气，想约一个女人出来。

get it together enough to鼓足勇气做某事。I got it together enough to try bungee jumping.我终于鼓起勇气尝试蹦极。鼓起勇气除了之前例句里出现过的，比如：screw up nerve/courage,还可以用bring oneself.比如：He brought himself to tell his girlfriend the truth.他终于鼓足勇气告诉他女朋友真像。

Chandler:It doesn't make much of a difference.

也没什么关系。

这句话的意思是，没什么不同。比如少了你也没什么不同，就是少了你也没关系。比如：It doesn't make much of a difference if you won't come.如果你不来也没什么关系。

no snap in his turtle是婉约的说他没有过性生活。注意使用：There was no snap in his turtle for two years.
