Ruby: Ruby 的留言Sara, I understand the way the man said "..got caught in the moment" could be confusing. Most people would say in stead, "..got caught UP in the moment". Judging by the context though, it doesn seem to mean "being arrested".
回覆：
I got it now, thanks.^^
Ive modified it.

Ruby: Ruby 的留言Sara, the Insider Trading article is very interesting! I want to offer my point of view regarding the translation as follow:
"I had planned to make it look natural, you know, lose a little here and there so it doesn look too perfect. But I just got caught in the moment."
我已計畫讓整件事看起來很自然，就是，這裡輸一點那裡輸一點，這樣就不會看起來太完美。但我就是太沉迷於之中了。
回覆：
Thank you very much, Ruby. ^^
Ive revised part of them, yet the last sentence you wrote Im not sure is right or not.
I feel "got caught" means being arrested.

星媽: 星媽 的留言Sara, its me again. Sorry, 羅德島 is Rhode Island. ^_^

鼻熊: 鼻熊 的留言星媽 多謝妳的幫忙! 原來這是一種 dialect 啊
我發現我經常被一些唸起來很滑稽的字吸引....
MOJOMOJOMOJO... 呵呵
那個時空旅行者的新聞很有趣 謝謝Sara的分享
我倒是很好奇 爲什麼不想個方法逼他說出賓拉登在哪裡 如果真的抓到了 再說嘛 ^++++^
回覆：
Haha..You are welcome. I thought mojo was libido. 呵呵
Yeah, that news was interesting. Time-traveler?! Do you believe it? ^^
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When translating that, I also felt that news was interesting, mysterious, but absurd.^^

星媽: 星媽 的留言Sara,
Rikers Island is in New York. ^_^
http://newmedia.jrn.columbia.edu/2003/islands/zone2/rikersfeature.html
回覆：
Thank you for the info.^^
-
星媽: 星媽 的留言鼻熊, I found this:
Mojo is from Black English, first recorded in the mid-1920s. It is common throughout the South. The earliest recorded usages are in reference to the blues and jazz music. The meaning has always been magic, charm, or amulet or more broadly the power and influence derived from such a supernatural source.
It is probably African in origin. Gullah (the dialect of the South Carolina Atlantic islands) has the word moco meaning witchcraft or magic. And the Fulani language of Africa has the word mocoo meaning a shaman.

默言: 默言 的留言covenant marriage 這個字眼我第一次看到!
我一直以為"從一而終"這樣的觀念只在保守的東方人才有...沒想到西方人也會有這樣的想法?很驚訝。
妳覺得covenant marriage這樣的觀念怎麼樣？
還是我應該問：妳喜歡自由的來去婚姻還是covenant marriage？
老實說－－－我猜－－－妳會說：各有利弊吧？
以前我會推崇covenant marriage，可是．．．．
近年來的台灣.......我實在ㄛ.......怕到了。
我 愈來愈喜歡自由的空間！
我想 婚姻對我而言也是必需是自由的才行；
當兩造無法再達到心靈互通的時候，covenant marriage就變成一個死胡同．．．．．
妳說 是嗎？︿︿"
回覆：
對啊 婚姻勉強不來 只要有ㄧ方不願意繼續 就應該散了
covenant marriage的目的大概希望大家不要那麼衝動就離婚吧?!

Urban: Urban 的留言星媽~ 3Q3Q
我瞭了!!
-
Urban: Urban 的留言上次看了一部電影 mean girl
電影是描述幾個貌美啦啦隊的青少女之間的故事...
mean girl??是不是只有美語才這樣用呢
什麼情況下 才會用到這樣的詞??
要麻煩星媽為我解惑嚕 非常謝謝~~~
回覆：
mean是指這個人很壞/很兇 像我都會說我自己是mean mommy(很壞/很兇的媽咪) 你可以說別人: You are mean. 你真壞心/真兇 mean girls指壞心眼的女孩 在美國的高中生都很cruel 說話都很傷人 還故意陷害人 所以說他們是mean girls
英語也這樣用的 mean的用法很普遍
這樣說 你瞭解嗎? 不懂再問ㄅ ^_^

bogus -- not genuine; 不是真的

Ruby: Ruby 的留言新年快樂！
看中國食品上的英文翻譯，有時很好笑。提供兩則讓大家開懷一下！
把麵用水沖過 -> flush noodle (錯誤用法，flush是沖掉的意思，比如說沖馬筒時可用此字)
->正確是 rinse the noodles
關火 -> cease fire (錯誤用法，這是指戰事中的停火)
->正確是 turn off the heat

永恆的雨: 永恆的雨 的留言Hello,
我來又有東西要問了~~
當遇到race discrimination[應該是所謂的種族歧視吧?]我想我會這樣子說也
*先生﹐大家都是文明人有什麼事情大家都應該懂得要用文明的方式解決。你今天這樣子對待我們相信如果今天換成是你們的種族的人你應該不會這樣對待他吧?你這樣真的弄到我對你們好失望!*
但是我不會翻成英文,所以請好心人士幫我翻嘍!!!
this is one of the thing i wanna ask there is another question i want to ask...
期待-english is??
i think it is not hoping,hoping for me is 希望 not 期待~~
thanks..
^^
forever rain
回覆：
期待 -- I am expecting......其實I am hoping...就有期待的意思
你那句race discrimination好長喔 可以等大師Sara嗎? 呵呵 or perhaps anybody? ^_^
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dear Angie, you are always sooooooooooo sweet!!!!!!!!!!^^
I am expecting your arrival.我正期待你的到來
I will expect you for lunch together at 12 oclock tomorrow.明天我12點期待與你吃午餐
She is expecting.她懷孕了
Sir, we’re all civilized people. If there is any problem, we should deal with it in a civilizing way. I believe that if the same thing happened to your race, you wouldn’t treat them like that, right? Today, you treated us like this made us feel so disappointed at you.
--------------------------------------------
嗯嗯 其實還有另一種說法
I am looking forward to...
look forward to 後面要加v-ing
I am looking forward to seeing you tomorrow
I am looking forward to it!

我在想什麼題目﹐腦中想到一些電影中的名言似乎也不錯。我在整理"The horror ! The horror ! " 的由來。

Yes, Im in Taiwan. In this environment,its hard to practice speaking English, yet the enthusiasm helps, even every class now I have is in Chinese. So, I try to use the internet resources to study English.

紅人阿婷: 紅人阿婷 的留言謝謝謝謝喔~
我剛剛去Webster看了一下ramification~
ram·i·fi·ca·tion
Function: noun
1 a : BRANCH, OFFSHOOT b : a branched structure
2 a : the act or process of branching b : arrangement of branches (as on a plant)
3 : CONSEQUENCE, OUTGROWTH
呵呵~所以說我學到新字啦~
我的電子辭典一定是老了~
謝謝星媽喔!

You are very welcome. ^_^
我也學到了ㄋㄟ 真好!
星媽
-
Venus: Venus 的留言Yes, it means [CONSEQUENCE]!!!
In this comic, it means [when the conseqence is not that bad, it will be the time that he would like to share that joke], obviously, that joke maybe an erotic one.
回覆：
謝謝 ^_^
-
星媽: 星媽 的留言阿婷,
我叫我老公看那個漫畫 然後問他Ramification是什麼意思 他說是consequence的意思 意思是說:等以後whatever後果沒那麼嚴重的時候再告訴他們 所以他比較不會被罵
代溝: generation gap
我也學了一個新字了ㄋㄟ ramification 謝謝! ^_^

星媽: 星媽 的留言Hello Sara,
I am going to cut to the chase. ^_^ I have a couple of suggestions/comments about those two articles:
1. math application - apply math to (everyday life)
2. sheriff`s deputy -- is a real job (perm. not temp.) I know its really hard to translate that job title. I myself dont know what to call it in Chinese either. I dont know if 代理人 is good enough. I think the job is more like an assistant to the sheriff to take some of the sheriff`s workload. This is really hard to explain...
I guess I am just hoping that you can think of something better for 代理人 than I can. ^_^
3. From your translation, I am not sure if you understand this one or not. Just in case you dont, I put it here too. Hope you dont mind. ^_^
reality check -- assessing the situation to make sure what is practical
i.e. I think its time to stop and perform a reality check.
回覆：
1.數學應用
2.副手
3.實際檢查/核對
Thank you! 星媽.I need someone, you, who can remind me of my mistakes because learning from the mistakes is essential.
When I am having conversation with one of my friends who is also ambitious about English, we also correct each others mistakes during our chat.^^
Love,
Sara
-
Ruby: Ruby 的留言我搞了半天不知如何把文貼上來，笨喔！sign in 進去後像走迷宮一樣又繞回原地。所以放到留言版來！
昨天看了一個美食節目，講到Christmas Spirit，以同字異義的巧妙介紹了聖誕節喝的酒。我覺得很有意思。
spirit可以解釋為：
精神
靈，聖靈
酒，烈酒
回覆：
我幫你貼了囉 這幾天女人私好像有點問題 ^^
謝謝你的介紹 我又學了個新字 ^_^

永恆的雨: 永恆的雨 的留言sara, i think bosom friend can be same as close friend. is it? i dunno i guess bosom friend know wat u think in your heart so must be a close friend with u rite? or else..
that article about *parents go on strike* hm..i dunno but i dun accept those action for me it is too over but i also dun agree bout the children attitude...lack of respect...
btw sara
*obviously you can break the law.*
怎麼怪怪的丫?? you can break the law?!
huh? 你可以破那個 law? 不是應該 you cant break the law 嗎?
星媽﹐
你的笑話還不賴的說~
雨
回覆：
1.Yes, bosom friends are similar to close friends sometimes. It depends on how you look at them.
2.Yes, its a bit extreme to do that, yet the reason is that this couple was desperate, because every solution they used didn work out.
3. You are right,yet the hercafe website omits "comma," so when I posted "can’t " ,the abbreviation, it became "can", unless I wrote the messages on the Microsoft Word first. Thanks for reading mine carefully.^^
-
星媽: 星媽 的留言I havent finish reading the aricle yet. I am kind of busy today. Will finish tomorrow hopefully. ^_^
-
星媽: 星媽 的留言Sara,
"take a picket line to the picket fences of suburbia. " means "go on strike at where they live". ^_^
回覆：
Dear 星媽,
Thank you for pointing out the meaning of that sentence.^^
Ive modified it already.
-
coco chang: coco chang 的留言挖~~我不懂...看來我要好好認真學拉~~~^^
-
星媽: 星媽 的留言Thanks Sara for the excellent explanation. And thanks to Flying too for posting this nice old saying. ^_^
However, from the meaning of the words, it looks like this to me: A friend who needs something from you is really a friend. Haha...I know that is not ture, I just had a bit hard time understanding why they wrote it this way though. Haha...yeah, ryhme I guess. ^_^
Sara, why dont you post the message you wrote about friends? Or would you like me to do it? I believe a lot of people would like to know it. ^_^
回覆：
You are always so sweet.
Your words give me a strong positive reinforcement on learning English. ^^
As for the messages, you can post and edit mine there anytime.

我的天空: 我的天空 的留言我也有去買這一本書哦..
回覆：
Great! His book is very inspiring, yet I only got a Chinese version of his in Taiwan.
-
永恆的雨: 永恆的雨 的留言sara,
what are the meaning of bosom friends and fair- weather friends?
i used to think that close friends is same as real friends? doesnt it? then what is the differences?
and xing ma thanks for solve my pizza delivery question..
rain
回覆：
bosom friends 知心朋友
fair- weather friends 酒肉朋友
close friends 親密的朋友
real friends真正的朋友
Generally speaking, one can regard close friends as real friends, but because of that saying," a friend in need is a friend indeed," I think they are still a little different.
Close friends: 2 people often hang out together, yet,they can be fair-weather friends as well, right?
As for real friends, they help you when you are in trouble, and they can be friends who are always close to you or far away from you, yet they come to help you, when you need others help.^^
-
星媽: 星媽 的留言But, "A friend" in need is "a friend" indeed. Arent they the same person? ^_^
回覆：
Yes, they are the same.
The points are "in need "and "indeed."
當你【貧困時】，一位朋友適時出現援助，這位朋友，是【真正】的朋友。
We can divide friends into several groups.
1. fair-weather friends
2. close friends
3. say-hello friends
4. real friends
5. bosom friends/bosom buddies
They are all so-called friends, yet the level is different.
In the past, I thought one of my bosom friends is my real friend, yet it is not. In the end, I realized that she is my fair-weather friend.(It hurt so much then.)
by Sara
-
星媽: 星媽 的留言我問過我老公這句 A friend in need is a friend indeed. 我不懂的是為什麼a friend in need會是真正的friend呢? 呵呵
回覆：
in need:在窮困中的
When one is in need, a friend comes to help him/her, and this friend is a real friend.
Sara^^
-
FLYING: FLYING 的留言星媽~你的謎語真有趣
連我老公都答不出來說

永恆的雨: 永恆的雨 的留言i haf a question....if you ordered a pizza and you wanted to ask about the time when they would delivery the pizza to your house? how can you ask? jus now i was stucked..ee..it doesnt feel nice.. i was like when...when...cuz i dun wan to ask like when you guys will arrive..it is like not that suitable i guess..=) thanks
回覆：
"When will you guys arrive?" is pretty good, better than "when are you guys going to get here?" ^^ Or you can ask: "How long will it take to get here?" or " When should I expect you?"
-- 星媽

永恆的雨: 永恆的雨 的留言got it.. thanks

回覆：

永恆的雨: 永恆的雨 的留言thanks to ruby and 星媽s explanation
因為我想steak都還沒煮為什麼要+ed叻?
我是這樣問星媽可能有點搞不懂我在問什麼吧~
我有新的問題
hes and hes [if cannot see the comma i explain]
one comma is he*s and another one is hes* whats the difference between both? thanks for explanation..
=)
回覆：
he`s = he is or he has.
hes` I have never seen hes` in anywhere before. I wonder where you saw it? I checked with my husband, he said there is no such word - hes`.
Sorry. ^_^ -- 星媽

Ruby: Ruby 的留言補充一下，那句牛排的句子可以寫為這樣：
How do you like your steak to be cooked?
to be 省略了，所以變成星媽解釋的那樣。
-
永恆的雨: 永恆的雨 的留言我有個問題。。為什么sara的那個steaks conversation的waiter asked: how would you like your steak [cooked]?
為什么用cooked 不是cook? +ed不都是用在past tense 嗎?
請解答我的疑惑。。
thanks
回覆：
cooked是過去分詞當形容詞 形容steak 要怎樣被煮 Ｇot it? ^_^ -- 星媽

星媽: 星媽 的留言To Sara,
Hello Sara, you did a really good job translating the news. Glad to hear that Taiwans economy is still going strong. However, there is one thing I am not sure if you know or not that the city and the countrys name in the beginning of the article indicate where the journalist reporting from, like STOCKHOLM, Sweden in the news.
I am pretty sure you know about this already - I guess you probably just had butter fingers then. ^_^
回覆：
Thank you for reminding me of that. You are my helpful editor.^^
Love,
Sara

BB: BB 的留言星媽, 看完妳這篇, 我突然想到一句音差不多, 意思卻差十萬八千里, "sue your pants off", 不是針對妳啦, of course,
我唸MBA時, Business Law教授說常常在說, 很神經吧, 哈哈...
I am gonna sue your pants off(就是要上法庭告你, 告到連你褲子都要脫下來, 讓你破產到連褲子都沒得穿的意思)

Kay: Kay 的留言鼻熊
你貼的這貼好有趣哦. ^_* 連大衛先生聽了也覺得很有趣呢!
我也對你說的片語很頭痛呢! 像是knock out, knock off, knock down.....我永遠會搞混. 很多時候on, in ,at ..也是搞不清楚..@_@
-
鼻熊: 鼻熊 的留言我同意Kay的說法 大家各取所需!
我對於那些有介係詞的片語特別沒有sense 像 最近的幾篇suck up to.... tell on.... 怎麼知道什麼時候要用to什麼時候要用on???
有時候真是套句朋友的話: "每個單字都認識 連起來怎麼都看不懂" @_@
回覆：
我想了很久 我覺得這個很難解釋ㄋㄟ 為什麼suck up to not on? Hmmmm....等一下我來看看我老公會不會比較會解釋 ^^ --星媽

omelette/omelet:煎蛋卷【Noun】
eggs beaten together and fried, often with chese, herbs, vegetables, etc or with a sweet filling

Lynda: Lynda 的留言剛剛不太明瞭poached 和hard- boiled 的差別﹐我先生說poached 是用一種鐵的容器去蒸的﹐和水煮蛋效果一樣不過可以控制全熟和半熟。謝謝Sara 和BB.
-
BB: BB 的留言看到有人説蛋的煮法, 想到其他的煮法, 順便補充一下...
poached: 是白煮蛋(水煮荷包蛋)
omelette, 就是煎蛋中包其他東西, 我不知道中文是什麼, sorry
