每年六月的第三个星期日是父亲节,首先,祝所有父亲节日快乐!
既然是父亲节,那么问题来了,父亲节到底是Fathers' Day还是Father's Day呢?根据语法,今天是天底下所有父亲的节日,理应是Fathers' Day,但是,正确说法却是Father's Day,这是为什么呢?
In the United States, Dodd used the 'Fathers' Day' spelling on her original petition for the holiday, but the spelling 'Father's Day' was already used in 1913 when a bill was introduced to the U.S. Congress as the first attempt to establish the holiday, and it was still spelled the same way when its creator was commended in 2008 by the U.S. Congress.(来源:Wikipedia)
在美国,Dodd在她最初的节日请愿书上使用了“Fathers' Day”的拼写,但“Father's Day”的拼写在1913年就已经使用了,当时一项法案作为设立该节日的第一次尝试被提交给了美国国会,并且在2008年美国国会表彰其创建者时,它仍然以同样的方式拼写。
现在被广泛使用的是Father's Day:
1. My dad told me that is the best gift he has ever received for Father's Day.
我爸爸说这是他收到的最好的父亲节礼物。
2. I hope you know how proud I am of you, father. Happy Father's Day!
爸爸,我希望你知道我是多么为您感到骄傲!父亲节快乐!
现把相关的容易写错的节日的正确英文罗列如下:
1. Father's Day
父亲节
2. Mother's Day
母亲节
3. Children's Day
儿童节
4. Women's Day
妇女节
5. Teachers' Day
教师节
接下来,我们聊聊“拼爹”,你知道“拼爹”用英文怎么说吗?
Competition of family background
competition [,kɑmp?'t?n] n. 竞争
background ['b?kɡra?nd] n. 背景
家庭背景的比拼可翻译为拼爹。
例子:
This is probably another one of society's rules and it's called “competition of family background”.
这大概是这个社会的另一个规则吧,这个规则叫做“拼爹”。
Born with a silver spoon in one's mouth
born [b?rn] v. 出世
silver spoon n. 财富(尤指继承的遗产)
译为:含着金汤勺出生,生而富有
例子:
Wang was born with a silver spoon in his mouth and he never worries about money.
小王是含着金汤勺出生的,他家里超级有钱,他从来没有为钱发愁过。
Filthy rich
filthy ['f?lθi] adj. 肮脏的
译为:腰缠万贯(贬义)
例子:
She's filthy rich and buys cars everyday.
她太有钱了,天天换车。
Loaded
译为:富得流油(俚语)
例子:
Let him pay—he's loaded.
让他请客,他有的是钱。
以上这些是用词组直接表达一个人富有。在中文中,当我们不会表达一个词的时候可以通过表达它的意思来说明这个词,所以在英文中也可以这样。拼爹我们可以说:
①比较谁的爹更牛。
Let's see whose daddy is more successful.
②她是靠爹才有的工作。
She got the job, depending on her rich daddy.
③这个时代爹很牛。
In today's society, your daddy is the key.
