2014-08-03来源:

Li: Hello I'm Li! And joining me today is Neil–hello Neil!
李:大家好,我是李!今天和我一起主持节目的是尼尔,尼尔,你好!

(miaow)
(喵)

Neil: Hello!
尼尔:大家好!

(miaow)
(喵)

Li: Is that a cat in the basket you're holding?
李:你拿着的篮子里是有只猫吗?

Neil: It's my adorable cat, Spencer.
尼尔:这是我的爱猫斯宾塞。

Li: Oh Spencer, can I see him?
李:哦,斯宾塞,我能看看吗?

Neil: Of course...
尼尔:当然……

(basket opening)
篮子打开了

Li: Ahhhh-urgh!
李:啊!

Neil: What do you mean, urgh?
尼尔:啊,这是什么意思?

Li: That's not a cat, it's a kind of frog-chicken!
李:这不是猫,它看上去像青蛙!

(offended miaow)
(被冒犯,喵)

Li: It doesn't have any fur!
李:它根本没有毛!

Neil: Spencer certainly is a cat. He's a sphinx cat; they don't have any fur. You don't like him do you?
尼尔:斯宾塞绝对是只猫。它是斯芬克斯猫;这种猫没有毛。你是不喜欢它吗?

Li: No, no, no, don't get me wrong. He's just a bit–surprising!
李:不,不,不是,别误会我的意思。它只是有点出乎我的意料!

Cat: Miaow?!
猫:喵?!

Li: Don't get me wrong-that's an expression you use when you're worried someone might not understand what you say or be upset by it. When I said Neil's cat looked like a frog-chicken, I didn't mean that I didn't like him; I just meant he was... a bit unusual. Here are some more examples:
李: Don't get me wrong是一种表达方式,当你担心别人可能不理解你的意思或是可能因为你说的话而感到烦恼时,你可以使用这个短语。刚才我说尼尔的猫看上去像青蛙,我的意思并不是我不喜欢它;我只是说它……有点儿与众不同。这里有更多的例子:

Don't get me wrong, I do like James, I just think he can be a bit annoying sometimes.
别误会。我很喜欢詹姆斯,我只是觉得他有时有点烦人。

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to come to your party, but I'm busy tonight.
别误会我的意思,我很想参加你的派对,但是我今晚非常忙。

That coat is very bright–but don't get me wrong, I still think you should wear it.
那件大衣太鲜艳了,不过别误会,我认为你还是应该穿着它。

Neil: Well, I think Spencer is a beautiful cat.
尼尔:我想斯宾塞是只非常漂亮的猫。

(miaow of agreement)
(喵,表示同意)

Neil: And, don't get me wrong, but you don't know much about cats do you?
尼尔:别误会,不过你不太了解猫,是吧?

Li: Yes I do! I have a Norwegian forest cat. And she's very beautiful with lots of fur! But Spencer is... very strange.
李:我很了解猫!我养了只挪威森林猫。它有很多毛,非常漂亮!但是斯宾塞……非常特别。

(angry miaow)
(喵,表示生气)

Li: A kind of gremlin.
李:有点像小精灵。

(angry hiss)
(发出生气的咝咝声)

Li: And not very friendly.
李:而且不是很友善。

(crazed miaow of anger as Spencer throws himself on Li)
(生气又发狂的喵喵叫,斯宾塞跳到了李的身上)

Cat: Miaow, don't get me wrong, I am only being friendly!
猫:喵,别误会我的意思,我只是想表示友好!

Li: That is a lie. Get off me, you vicious gremlin! Get off! Get off!
李:你在撒谎。从我身上离开,你这只发狂的精灵!快走开!快从我身上离开!
