雞尾酒 1988

• Oh, no. We're starting here? Okay. From the very beginning I've always made a statement. Not everyone appreciated that.

不，要從這裡開始講？好吧，打從出娘胎，我就喜歡表達自己的立場。但不是每個人都欣賞。

• That's unfortunate.

真不幸

• Made a statement，意思是表達觀點、聲明立場。在日常英語中很常見，被用於形容個人或組織通過某種行動、服裝風格、言論等方式傳達出有意義或有重要性的信息。

• But I wasn't for everyone. Speaking of statements, here's one. That necklace is the reason I'm dead. But I'm getting ahead of myself.

但我本來就不是每個人的菜。講到表達自我立場，這裡有個例子，這條項鍊就是我的死因。但我故事講得有點太快了。

• “I wasn‘t for everyone”的意思是「我不適合每個人」或「我不是每個人的菜」。這句話暗示Cruella的特質、個性或行為方式並不迎合所有人的喜好或接受程度。
• "But I'm getting ahead of myself" 意思是「但是我有點過於急躁了」，表明說話者意識到自己稍稍超前於故事的發展，需要回到更早的時間點或更詳細的敘述，才能正確地解釋之前提到的項目。
• “get ahead of myself”是常用的慣用語，意思是「急於做某事，而忽略了先前必要的步驟或細節」。

• From an early age, I realized I saw the world differently than everyone else.

從小我就明白自己的觀點與眾不同。

• Look!

你看

• Well, that's not the pattern. You have to follow the pattern. There's a way of doing things.

圖案不對，你得照圖案做，做事都有一定的規矩。

• That's ugly.

好醜

• Including my mother.

連母親也覺得我怪。

• Cruel. Name's Estella, not Cruella.

好毒，你叫艾絲黛拉，不是殘酷伊拉

• It wasn't her I was challenging, it was the world. But of course my mother knew that. That's what worried her.

我挑戰的不是她，而是這個世界。我母親當然知道，所以她才擔心。

• Remember, you belong here as much as anyone. They're lucky to have you.

記住，你跟別人一樣屬於這裡，你來念書是他們的福氣。

• Agreed.

同意。

• Hey. What do you say to Cruella when she tries to get the better of you?

殘酷的庫伊拉出來想要附妳身的時候，該怎麼說？

• "Get the better of you" 是常用的慣用語，意思是「控制或戰勝你」、「使你無法應對或戰勝」或「使你處於劣勢或被擊敗」。它可以用於描述在某種情境中，某人試圖戰勝或超越你，使你感到挫敗、無力或無法應對。
• Thank you for coming, but you may go now.

謝謝你來，但請妳離開。

• Good. Now say goodbye to her.

很好，現在請她離開吧。

• Goodbye, Cruella.

再見，庫伊拉

• And wear the hat.

戴上帽子

• I don't need the hat.

我不必戴帽子

• Well, be polite. And good. And friendly.

要有禮貌，要聽話，對同學客氣點

• How does the saying go? "I am woman. Hear me roar." Well, that wasn't much of a thing back in 1964, but it was about to be.

那句話是怎麼說的？「我是女人，聽我咆哮」，1964年還不流行這種概念，可是也快了。

• "Not much of a thing"是俚語和口語表達，用來表示某事的重要性或受關注程度有限。暗示著後續將發生重大變化或轉變。
• Hi, my name's Estella.

你好，我叫艾絲黛拉

• Look. A skunk's got loose in the building.

你看，臭鼬跑出來在大樓裡亂跑。

• “Get loose”「逃脫」或「逃走」。上一句話的意思是：原本在大樓內的臭鼬逃脫出來，現在在大樓內自由活動。

• Nice jacket.

外套很帥喔

• Hi, I'm Anita.

你好，我是安妮塔.

• Estella.

我是艾絲黛拉

• Ignore them.

別理他們

• Just did. But it might not last.

我沒理他們，但可能撐不久

• "Ignore them"? Didn't I just say, "Hear me roar"?

別理他們？我剛剛不是說「聽我咆哮」嗎？

• Fight! Fight! Fight!

打！打！打！

• That didn't sit well with some people.

有些人會很不舒服。

• "not sit well with someone" 是常用的慣用語，用於描述某事對某人的不接受或不滿程度。當某事物「doesn't sit well with someone」時，表示這個事物不符合他們的價值觀、期望或標準，並且讓他們感到不滿、不舒適或不接受。
• 例如，如果說某個政策「didn't sit well with the public」，意思是該政策對公眾來說不太受歡迎或引起不滿。這表示該政策引起了某人或某些人的反對、不滿或不舒服的感受。

• Buddy. I found him.

巴迪，我撿到的

• And not this guy. Her. Anita Darling. What a fabulous name.

還有，不是這傢伙。是她才對，安妮塔達令，多棒的名字

• You could say I pretty much roared my way through all of primary school. Almost.

我可說是一路咆哮念完小學的，差一點念完

• Well, I think it's clear what happens now. Estella, you are expelled...

我想情況很清楚了，艾絲黛拉，你被開...

• I'm withdrawing her from your school.

我要讓她轉學。

• withdraw her from school, 不一定是轉學，也有可能是退學不讀書了。transfer her from school就是轉學了。
• I'm expelling her.

我要開除她

• It's too late because I withdrew her first, so that can't be on her record.

我先讓她轉學，所以不能有開除紀錄

• I'd said expelled. I'd already said it.

我說了開除，我已經說了

• Hadn't.

你才沒說。

• Didn’t.

你沒說。

• 校長用過去完成式I had said expelled而不用過去式I said expelled，因為完成式或過去完成式在英語有聲明的意思，校長這麼說，用來凸顯自己的立場。
• 媽媽用過去式You didn’t，是一種事實描述，表示自己客觀公正。

• And might I say, your school seems to turn out horrible children with no creativity or compassion.

好吧，反正在小鎮上也當不了時裝設計師。

• Can we go here?

我們可以去這裡嗎？

• Regent's Park? Perfect. When we get to the city, first thing we'll do, we'll go to the fountain, and we'll have a cup of tea and we'll start planning how to make this London thing work.

現在的情況需要找的朋友。

• I'll be less trouble from now on, Mum. I promise.

現在起我會少惹點麻煩，媽。我保證

• I meant it when I said it. When a girl like me makes a promise like that, you don't take her to a place like this.

當我說出這句話時，我是認真的。我這樣的女孩做出那種承諾時，你不能帶她到這種地方。

• What is this place?

這是什麼地方？

戴上去，很好看

• Looks better without, I think. Be yours one day. It's a family heirloom. Will you mind it for me?

不戴比較好看，將來有一天就是你的。這是傳家寶，能幫我保管嗎？

你得低調點

• Lie low while wearing a hat?

戴帽子會低調？

• Exactly. Love you.

沒錯，愛你喔

• Love you more.

我更愛你

• “Lie low” 的意思是「保持低調」。另一個常見的片語是 “keep a low profile”，意思也是指保持低調或不引人注意，這個片語在現代英語中更常用且更通用。

• Don't worry, she'll be back soon.

別擔心，她很快就回來

• I did try to lay low.

我確實努力要低調

• 低調應該用lie low，進行式lying low，過去式lay low，完成式lain low。但口語越來越多人用lay low，進行式laying low，過去式laid low，完成式laid low。事實上，lay的正確用法是lay sth/sb low。

毛皮和雪紡紗？在同一件禮服上？

• I figured while Mum was busy seeing her mysterious friend, I'd just take a little peek.

既然媽忙著見她的神祕朋友，我可以稍微偷看一下

問題是，這一看震撼了我，我不知道我在哪裡，那是什麼，只知道自己人生第一次找到了歸屬。可惜，巴迪沒有同感

• Buddy! No!

巴迪，不行

• Sad story. Genius girl turns into stupid girl who gets her mother killed and ends up alone.

好悲傷的故事，我這個天才女孩變成害死母親的蠢女孩，落得孤伶伶一個人。

• 為何genius girl和stupid girl前面不用冠詞”a”？
• 省略冠詞 “a”時，句子會傾向於描述一個特定的天才女孩，如果套上”a”，就變成泛指一個女孩。Cruella用這樣的語法，來強調說這個天才女孩和蠢女孩，就是我本人啦！
