【今日课题】
我们今天要准备讨论的话题是“相信”。说道“相信”,大家立马会想到“believe 1”“trust”这2个我们再也熟悉不过的词了。但是有个短语,这个短语含有我们大家都很熟悉的圣经里提到的2个人物:Adam(亚当)和Eve 3(夏娃)来表述“相信”这个意思,而且是名词短语做动词用。或许您觉得impossible,那么我们接下来听一个对话。这个对话是一对恋人在斗嘴。我们来看看如何使用“亚当”和“夏娃”来表述“相信”的意思。
A : Honey 4, cross my heart 5. I wouldn't lie 2 to you to hurt you nor 7 not to break your heart anymore 8.
B : This isn't the first time, and it wouldn't be the last. I don't Adam and Eve it!
【课题详析】
这位男士说: Honey, cross my heart. 亲爱的,我发誓。这里cross one's heart经常是谈恋爱的人用来向对方表白自己的真情。我们再来看一个例句:Honey, cross my heart, I've never looked at another woman since 9 the first day I set 10 eyes on you! Adam and Eve me, that's the truth 11! 亲爱的,我向你发誓,自从我见到你以来,我从来也没有对别的女人看过一眼,这可是千真万确的呀!
Adam and Eve除了用于爱情表白上,还可以用于我们生活的方方面面。下面我们将要听到的例句就是一个人在对Billy澄清不是他弄坏一辆Bully单车的事情: Billy, cross my heart, it wasn't me who broke 12 your bicycle. 比利,不是我把你的自行车弄坏的,我发誓。接下来我们听到的例句是一方要求另一方不要嚼舌根,不要传话,也就是不要“gossip”。我们现在来看看他是怎么说的:Promise 13 me you will not tell him what I have said 14. Cross your heart and hope 15 to die 16. 答应我,你绝不会把我所说的告诉他。你给我发誓,说了不得好死。
这位男士接着说—— I wouldn't lie to you to hurt you and break your heart anymore. 我再也不会骗你,再也不会伤害你,再也不会伤你的心了。Would 6是情态动词,在此句中是委婉提出想法。我们来看三个例句。Let's fix 17 the day. Would Saturday night suit 18 you? 咱们定个日子吧。星期六晚上合适吗?这句话用would委婉地提出问题。Would you kindly 19 send us his address? 劳驾您可否把他的地址寄给我。这句话是用would委婉提出请求。I am sure he wouldn't mind 20 your going 21. 我相信他不会介意你去。Lie to somebody 22意思是对...撒谎,欺骗...
Break one's heart意思是:使人心碎;伤人心;使人伤心。这个短语在爱情上使用频率很高。我们来看2个例句:It'll break my heart to hear you say goodbye.听你说再见我的心都碎了。How could 23 the one I gave 24 my heart to, break my heart so bad? 你曾接受我交给你的心,但怎么现在却刺伤它?
Not... any more是“不再”“再也不”的意思。我们来看2个例句。I forgave 25 you before but not any more.我曾经原谅你,但不会再那么做了。At one time I liked her, but not any more. 我一度很喜欢她,现在已不喜欢了。
这位女士说: This isn't the first time. 这已经不是第一次了。And it wouldn't be the last.也不会是最后一次。这句话的意思是说男友还会欺骗她,她不会再与男友在一起了,这样她就不会再受到欺骗了。Would在这句话中与not连用构成否定结构,表示不可能;不会。I don't Adam and Eve it! 好,这里就是画龙点睛了,点到我们今天的课题了。女士说的时我不会相信你的话了。It指代他的男友说的话。那么我们看到这里是用Adam and Eve作动词,在一个句子中充当谓语。
【追踪朔源课题】
那么为何用Adam and Eve来表示“相信”这个意思呢?这个还真是门学问,真值得去琢磨,甚至是要到当地去研究。
它不同于很多习语是来源于典故,一个故事或者是一种活动。它是来源于方言的发音。大家都知道亚当和夏娃是圣经中的一个男人和女人。亚当和夏娃偷吃禁果后,人类开始堕落。但是在这个语境里,Adam and Eve是伦敦东区土话的同音,是一个押韵的俚语。押韵俚语是伦敦东部地区(East End)的一种独特俚语或方言,这类俚语使用与正式押韵的两个或两个以上的词语来代替正式语。非当地人很难听懂。 我们来看几个例子:trouble 26 and strife是wife的意思。Captain 27 hook是book的意思。Apples and pears是stairs的意思。Frog and toad是road的意思。
在口语中,通常会省略带韵脚的那个词。例如:代表look这个意思的butcher's hook通常说为butcher's,省略了hook。
【课题总结】
Adam and Eve是“相信”的意思,做动词用,在句子中充当谓语成分。它是一个押韵俚语。
