“口音是个大问题。别人只要一开口说话,土生土长的英国人瞬间就能确定说话者的出生地、年薪,还能追溯到往上三代的出身。”
Redditor Dondo666 also pointed out the difference between the British accents as depicted onscreen, and how they are in real life.
Reddit用户Dondo666同样指出了银幕上与现实生活中的英国口音的差异。
"English is my 3rd language but I'd say I'm fluent," he said.
他表示:“英语是我的第3语言,但我觉得自己说得算得上流利”。
"I have no problem understanding what Americans say 99% of the time. But Brits are a whole other thing entirely. Most of the time I could make out 1/5 words. After a while I stopped asking people to repeat themselves and just smiled and nodded.
“99%的情况下,我听懂美国人说话没问题。但听懂英国人说话就完全是另一回事了。大多数情况下,5个单词我也就能听懂1个。不久之后,我就不再请求别人重讲一遍,而只是微笑着点头。”
"Brits in British movies I understand. In real life, not so much."
“英国电影里的英国人说话我能听懂。生活中?真是听不太懂。”
