用英文談情說愛
香港學生學英文的通病是得過且過,文法如是、詞彙也如是。例如不少學生學了廿年英文,也只懂說 I am happy.、She is angry.、I am scared.、He is arrogant.、Oh my god!、I agree with you.。不是文字的深淺問題,而是文字的深度。
例如,說中文時,大家會說「我開心到飛起」、「佢寸到冇朋友」、「我驚到面都青埋」……總比說「我很高興」、「他很高傲」、「我很害怕」形象化。
大家拍拖時,語言也會增添少少情調。不要只說 I love you!、I miss you! 等文字,這些太「行」,試試其他版本,表示誠意:
I bet Cupid struck right at our hearts.[愛神射中我倆嘅心]
I’m so mad about you that I’m going out of my mind.[我愛你愛到神魂癲倒]
I’m really nuts about you.[我愛你愛到好瘋狂]
I miss you to death.[我掛住你掛到要死]
Honey bun, I miss your toes.[掛住你嘅腳趾]
You owe me 10 kisses.[你欠我十個吻]
不是每段愛情都是穩定,如果糾纏於一段 roller-coaster relationship[時好時壞的關係]而解決不到,break up with someone[分開]或 call it quits[攤牌分手]便是可行方法。當然,戀愛大過天(Love conquers all!),祝願大家有一個童話結局(a fairytale ending)。

Dear All Fans and Friends!
So sorry to delay my grateful and heartfelt THANK YOU to all of those who sent me a beautiful Birthday Card last year and took such trouble to wrap it so beautifully and send it to Hong Kong!
I really do appreciate all your wonderful hearts and all the efforts you put into choosing, buying, writing and sending the cards with all your BIG BIG HEARTS! I know how much you love me and I love you too but really don't need to go thru the trouble! I think it's better one day we find a way to MEET each other! Maybe some place in Shen Zhen or something.. then we can connect much better! Of course hope I will sing somewhere in mainland China and meet up there too! Hahaha.. It's quite amazing all the cards come from so many fans all over China! I would like to share a few photos I took when I opened all of them at the time. I also gave my Mother the Chinese ones so she can read them to me and she was very happy that I have so many dear and considerate fans in mainland China! Thank you ALL SO MUCH for taking the heart and effort to give me such JOY! I will hope to meet with you all some time soon in the near future! In the meantime please do take good care of yourselves!
WORK HARD in whatever it is you do and love to do! BE HAPPY YOURSELF so you can BE GOOD to your Parents, Family, friends and Co Workers and anyone you meet in your life! Don't worry about hardships and pressure, because that's what makes you stronger and better and gives you the edge and strength to go farther and higher! Be aware that your actions speak much louder than your words! Always be aware that your actions must match the words you speak! Be HEALTHY and BE LOVING! ALWAYS! Even when U R Angry! Know that everything will work itself out! You are ALL BLESSED!

A #dirty magazine 色情雜誌,a dirty movie 三級電影,一句 give her a dirty look,或會誤解為「色迷迷的眼神」,這是錯的。 A dirty #look ,係 #𥇣死你。

A dirty look 「𥇣」死你
明報英文 | 毛孟靜
一日,在家偷拍家狗動靜,狗兒回眸一瞪,明顯不高興的眼神,用廣東話表達,就是:「影咩影,『𥇣 』死你吖嗱。」用英文講「𥇣 」死你,第一個想到的是:Give you a dirty look。
要留意,我們說 a dirty magazine 指色情雜誌,a dirty movie 係三級電影,一句 give her a dirty look,有人或會誤解為「色迷迷的眼神」,這是錯的。句子是說:給她一個憤怒 angry、表示反對 disapproving 、反感 disgusted 的眼神;簡單一點,就是怒視、「𥇣 」或矋。
· The other passengers gave me dirty looks for taking up too much room on the bus. 因我霸佔了太多空間,巴士上的其他乘客都向我怒目而視。
若在網上一查 a dirty look 的中文翻譯,會出現「骯髒的外觀」,這自然也是錯的。要記得,dirty 除了解作不潔、憤怒,亦可解作「不可接受、令人反感的事物」。
像 dirty word(s) 髒話,好像就代表粗口,就與性有關?不一定呢,看以下 dirty word 的用法:
· For environmentalists, "disposable" has become a dirty word. 對環境保護者來說,「即用即棄」已變成一個髒詞。
· "Quarantine" is quite a dirty word among business travellers amidst the pandemic. 在大流行病期間,商務客視「隔離」一語如髒話。
回說 a dirty look,若要進一步形容憤怒,可說:
· Getting increasingly annoyed, I decided to give her AN EVIL EYE. 我益發惱怒,決定向她惡狠狠地瞪眼。
· He had a dark look in his eyes, AN EVIL STARE. 他眼睛裏閃過一份陰沉,散發敵意。
這個 evil,固然也解作邪惡,但一般是指「不懷好意」;當中確也包含仇恨 hateful、惡意 malicious 以至恐嚇 threatening 的味道。
· I saw him giving me the evil eye, so I turned around and walked the other way. 看到他用敵意以至恐嚇的眼神瞪過來,我於是掉頭走另一條路。
或問,不管 a dirty look 或 an evil stare ,平鋪直敘說 an angry look、an angry stare 不就可以了嗎?當然可以,但文字就少了色彩。還有,不喜歡用不等於不用知道 —— 尤其是 a dirty look 是常用語,聽人家說了,不要誤解意思也就好。中文同樣會形容一個人「眼放飛劍」,是說眼神之凌厲如有殺意。英文用短劍 daggers,眾數。
· Daggers were coming out of her eyes. 她眼放飛劍。
. He obviously hates me. He stares daggers at me. 他一定是憎恨我,他向我眼放飛劍。
· He saw her sour and angry face. He was getting daggers from her. 他看到她一臉惱怒,一直在向他發放飛劍。

你要是好奇我爸爸是做什么工作,看这个视频你就知道了哦。在这期我要给你们看看我老爸公司的运营,包括一个人跟世上最吵的椅子的决战。另外,我在汉堡遇到了一个冒生命危险的紧急情况,看着汉堡警察拆除一颗尚未爆炸的二战炸弹...
If you’ve ever been curious as to what exactly it is that my dad does, this is video for you. In this weeks video I take you behind the scenes at my dads company, explaining how one man has devoted a life time of effort into dealing with the squeakiest office chair of all time. From there we go to an explosive situation in Hamburg watching as the police deal with deactivating an unexploded WW2 bomb and, almost as if by coincidence, I, a young Jewish man, get shouted at by lots of angry German men in uniform.
