英语课
地点：中央公园咖啡馆
人物：菲比，钱德勒，罗斯，迈克
事件：谈论到婚礼所需的巨大花费，菲比决定索性把办婚礼的钱捐出去。
Phoebe: The hall, the dress, the food... I-I had no idea how expensive this stuff 1 was!
菲比：场地、礼服、食物……我，我完全不知道这些东西有这么贵！
Chandler: Yeah it is really pricey. I mean, I freaked when I first heard the numbers.
钱德勒：没错，确实很贵。我是说，我第一次听到那个数字的时候都吓傻了。
Phoebe: So what did you two do about it?
菲比：那你们是怎么做的？
Chandler: It was pretty simple actually. I came up with a couple of cost-cutting solutions, wrote out a list and Monica told me to go to hell 2.
钱德勒：实际上很简单，我想出了一些缩减预算的办法，写了个单子，莫妮卡让我去死。
Ross: There's no way around it Pheebs, you just gonna have to accept the fact that this is gonna cost you a lot of money.
罗斯：没办法逃避的，菲，你得接受事实，结婚确实会花掉一大笔钱。
Mike: I heard that weddings are like a 40 billion dollar a year industry.
迈克：我听说每年花在婚礼上的钱能有400亿呢。
Ross: Yeah, and I'm responsible 3 for just like half of that.
罗斯：嗯，这里面有我一半的功劳。
Phoebe: But really, it does seem like this money could be put to better use.
菲比：但是，说真的，这钱似乎能用在更有意义的事情上。
Mike: Are you serious?
迈克：你是认真的吗？
Phoebe: Yeah! Now, how would you feel if we gave all the wedding money to charity 4 and we just got married at City Hall?
菲比：没错！现在咱们来说说，你说咱们要是把所有的钱都捐给慈善机构，然后在市政厅登记结婚，怎么样？
Mike: I think it would make me wanna marry you even more.
迈克：我觉得这让我更想娶你了。
Ross: I've got to say you guys, that's an incredible 5 gesture!
罗斯：我得承认，二位，这可真是高姿态啊！
Chandler: Maybe you do that next time you get married!
钱德勒：或者你下次结婚的时候也可以这么做！
Ross: No, no, no. The next time it's gonna be a Hawaii at sunset 6. But maybe the time after that!
罗斯：不，不，不。下一次结婚得是在日落时分的夏威夷。但下下次或许可以！
