話說,暑期哪個劇最火爆?那自然當屬《三十而已》啦!自開播以來,《三十而已》頻頻登上熱搜,所謂戲如人生,《三十而已》為啥如此火爆?網友們紛紛表示:代入感很強,照進現實。
該劇講述了三位個性截然不同的女性,在三十歲這一年齡節點,遭遇到不同挑戰,努力行動來解決問題、改變現狀的故事。
A story about three vastly different women who reach their thirties while facing different challenges and decide to take matters into their own hands.
對於這部劇,官方給出的英文譯名為Nothing But Thirty,表現了30歲隨性、灑脫的態度。其中,nothing but在英語中是個比較常見的詞組,它的基本含義是「只是、僅僅、除……外」。所以,Nothing But Thirty的意思即是「也就三十歲、無非三十歲、三十歲而已。」
至於「三十多歲」如何表達,可以表述為thirty something,而years old可以省略。這裡的something是代詞,表示不確切的描述或數量,大致,左右。比如,「他三十多歲了」可以翻譯成He is thirty something以及He is thirty something years old。
此外,something還表示差不多。在數詞後面加上something就是一個大概的數字。比如,50多個人就是fifty something people,100多美元可以翻譯為one hundred something dollars。
還有在表達三十多歲的時候,千萬不要說 more than thirty,因為more than一般情況下指的是超出很多,因此,more than thirty有可能表示40甚至50以上。
除了官方給出的英文譯名外,那些刺痛內心的經典臺詞又該如何表達?下面咱們就來盤點一下劇中超經典的10句語錄,其中有哪句戳到了你的內心呢?
1.生完孩子會覺得憋屈,憋屈在一個叫媽媽的頭銜。
After childbirth, I felt a little depressed because of a new title: mother.
2.你說話讓人舒服的程度,決定了你所能抵達的高度。
How comfortable your words make others feel decides how far you can reach.
3.比起房租漲價,更讓人害怕的是不停不停地搬家,你永遠都沒法在這座城市紮下根來。Compared to the pressure of rising rent prices, what scares you more is the constant moving with little prospect of settling down in this city.
4.比起情感的不安,物質的困頓才時時刻刻勒著你的脖子。
Compared to emotional anguish, material scarcity is what always make you feel strangled.
5.與年齡一同增長的,還有選擇的艱難,和對一切不確定的恐懼。
With age come the difficulty of making choices and the fear of uncertainty.
6.都說婚姻是避風港,都想著避風,誰來當港?
It is believed that marriage is a harbor. But it seems that everyone wants to be the ship rather than serve as the harbor.
7.沒有了二十歲的灑脫肆意,沒有過四十歲的雲淡風輕,三十歲想要的是更好的生活。
What people at their thirties want is nothing but a better life, after they enjoyed the freedom and fearlessness at age 20, while the clarity after age 40 is yet to come.
8.人長大有一個重要的標誌,習以為常把好聽的話都說予外人聽,那些傷人難聽的話或者沉默不語的,都留給了最親近的人。
An important sign of being a grown-up: people become accustomed to say nice words to outsiders, while saving hurtful words and awkward silence for their dearest ones.
9.住的空間越小,人的格局也越來越小,世界那麼大,絕不只是眼前的這麼一小塊光亮。
The smaller the living space, the narrower the visions of people. The world is so big, not just such a little piece of light.
10.夫妻之間,八成都是平淡的日子,兩成是大起大落。這兩成要是走好了,就能抵消前面八成的不如意。
For a couple, 80% of a married life is made of daily routines and 20% ups and downs. But if you can get through all the ups and downs together, the unsatisfaction created from the routine life could be offset.
而說到「三十」,自然少不了「三十而立」。「三十而立」出自孔子的《論語·為政》,原意是指人在三十歲前後建立自己人生穩定的價值觀,做事做人的原則。現代則多指有所成就。
最後,潤界君和大家分享下孔子《論語·為政》中這經典的一段。
子曰:吾十有五而志於學,三十而立,四十而不惑,五十而知天命,六十而耳順,七十而從心所欲,不逾矩。
The Master said, 「At fifteen, I had my mind bent on learning. At thirty, I stood firm. At forty, I had no doubts. At fifty, I knew the decrees of Heaven. At sixty, my ear was an obedient organ for the reception of truth. At seventy, I could follow what my heart desired, without transgressing what was right.」
