[ 2007-04-06 18:28 ]

文化面面观  加勒比海的海盗 & 皇港 Port Royal

我观之我见  我们的Elizabeth Swann小姐似乎天生骨子里就流着海盗的血(也可能她老爸的老爸的老爸曾做过海盗?)。

影片对白

Pirate1: I didn't know we were takin on captives.

Pirate2: She's invoked the right of parley with Captain Barbossa.

Elizabeth: I am here to negotiate...

Pirate1: You will speak when spoken to.

Barbossa: And ye not lay a hand on those under the protection of parley.

Pirate1: Aye, sir.

Barbossa: My apologies, Miss.

Elizabeth: Captain Barbossa, I am here to negotiate the cessation of hostilities against Port Royal.

Barbossa: There are a lot of long words in there, Miss, we're naught but humble pirates. What is it that you want?

Elizabeth: I want you to leave and never come back.

Barbossa: I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request... means no.

Elizabeth: Very well. I'll drop it.

Barbossa: Me holds are burstin' with swag and that bit of shine matters to us? Why?

Elizabeth: It's what you've been searching for. I recognized the ship. I saw it eight years ago on the crossing from England.

Barbossa: Did ya, now?

Elizabeth: Fine. Well, I suppose if it is worthless then theres no point in me keeping it.

Barbossa: No, You have a name, Missy?

Elizabeth: Elizabeth... Turner.

Will: You! Sparrow.

Jack: Aye.

Will: You are familiar with that ship, the Black Pearl?

Jack: I've heard of it.

Will: Where does it make berth?

Jack: Where does it make berth? Have you not heard the stories? Captain Barbossa and his crew of miscreants sailed from the dreaded Isla de Muerta. It's an island that cannot be found except by those who already know where it is.

Will: The ship's real enough. Therefore its anchorage must be a real place. Where is it?

Jack: Why ask me?

Will: Because you're a pirate.

Jack: And you want to turn pirate yourself, is that it?

Will: Never. They took Miss Swann.

Jack: Oh, so it is that you've found a girl. I see. Well, if you're intending to brave all, hasten to her rescue and so win fair lady's heart, you'll have to do it alone, mate. I see no profit in it for me.

Will: I can get you out of here.

Jack: How's that? The keys run off.

Will: I helped build these cells. These are half pin-barrel hinges. With the right leverage and a proper application of strength, the door will lift free.

Jack: What's your name?

Will: Will Turner.

Jack: That will be short for William, I imagine. Good, strong name. No doubt, named for your father, aye.

Will: Yes.

Jack: Aha. Well, Mr. Turner, I've changed me mind. If you spring me from this cell, I swear on pain of death I shall take you to the Black Pearl and your bonny lass. Do we have an accord?

Will: Agreed.

Jack: Agreed, get me out.

妙语佳句,活学活用

1. Lay a hand on

这是一部海盗片,我们都知道海盗大多是没有受过什么教育的,因此他们说的英语大多不标准,而且这是一部表现17、18世纪时代的电影,有些英语还是古语,例如 ye (you)等等。

Lay a hand on 本来的短语写作 lay / get one's hands on,意为"Get someone or something in one's grasp, especially to do harm",例如:Tom's gone off with the keys again; just wait till I lay my hands on him. 汤姆又把钥匙拿走了,等我收拾他的。

2. Aye

这个词表示"yes",通常是海员回答上级命令时说的,表示"明白",难怪它在海盗中如此盛行了。当然,aye 还可以表示惊喜或是在自己的猜疑得到证实时说,意为"啊,原来如此"。
