《老友记》口语笔记第1季:18集
1.On Poker
The One With All The Poker 是很多Friends迷的最爱，诙谐幽默自不待言，其中还不乏朋友、情人间的相互支持的动人场面。只是其中的poker术语太多，有时真是不知
所云。整理了部分出来，也许以后在宿舍楼道中的某个poker night中，你还能脱口而
出两句呐！
(Poker night is a night during which several people gather to play poker. For example: Are you going to come over for my poker night? It's Wednesday and we're starting at 8:00.)
先从基本名词开始吧！
Suits就是我们说的花色，4个花色分别是黑桃（spades），红桃（hearts），方片（diamonds）和梅花（clubs）。洗牌是shuffle，reshuffle也是个常用词，特别在政
治新闻里，说某个政党或政府要重组，也是reshuffle。抓牌是 draw card，出牌是
deal card。
下注一般是bet，下注时的那个红，兰色的小片片叫chip。monica说的“No blinds, everybody ante”中，ante和blinds都是下注的方式。ante是出牌（deal）前所下的注，而且不算作下回赌注中的一部分；blinds则恰恰相反，在不看自己的下一张牌时就下注，而且会成为下次赌注的一部分。
跟不跟是“in or out”，不玩了就说“I fold.”，我跟着你下注，“I am seeing you，I’ll see a bet。”Raise表示提高赌注，在一个limit game中（赌注有上限）, 通常是raise the
bet to the limit. Call是与对方的注持平（match a bet）如：“I’m calling you.”
一手牌（hand）比大小时，four of kind>full house>flush>straight。Four of kind是4
张一样的，大概相当于4个炸弹。Full House是指5张牌中有3张一样的（3个k）
和2张一样的（2个3），flush是5张牌都是同花不连成一句话，straight flush是同
花顺，Straight是5张牌连成一句话（56789），但不同花色。
说到Monica提到的Cincinnati，这是一种家庭扑克牌（Home game）的玩法，又称
之为Utah, Lamebrains, or California，widow game 和southern cross也与此相似。Cincinnati 的具体玩法是每个人都发5张牌，牌底朝下(face down)，剩下的牌则放在
桌子中央。先下一轮注（a round of betting）,然后由牌童（houseman）或发牌人
（dealer）揭开桌子中央底牌底（turn up the central card），每揭开一张又下一轮注, 在最后一张牌揭晓时（showdown），每个玩家选用他手上最好的5张牌比大小。
play for high stakes ——to risk a lot of money in a game
bluff —— to pretend you have better cards than you really do in a game of poker
2.Rachel: Settle what?
Chandler: The... Jamestown colony of Virginia. You see, King George is giving us
the land, so...
Jamestown —— a town, established in 1607, in the U.S. state of Virginia which was the first town built by English people who went to live in North America
3.Monica: Yeah, I know. He can get really competitive.
Phoebe: Ha. Ha, ha.
Monica: What?
Phoebe: Oh, hello, kettle? This is Monica. You're black. ）
最后一句的意思是“五十步笑百步。”摘录sogo做的详解如下：
A:There's an old saying: "It's like the pot calling the kettle black." It was coined when most pots and pans were made of iron and, therefore, were, black. It means that
you're accusing someone of something that really is reflective of you -- much like "It takes one to know one."
Does that help?--From leeni
详解：古语有云，"It's like the pot calling the kettle black."乌鸦笑猪黑，“罐子笑壶黑”，因为很多铁制炊具为黑色。意思是，你在嘲讽别人时，其实自己也一样，就好像说，"It takes one to know one"，彼此彼此。
这里rach先说ross让人难以忍受，mon附议说，他有时的确让人发疯；pheebs就讽
刺她说，乌鸦笑猪黑，你还不是一样。
4.It's gotta be like chips, or dip, or pretz..
是pretzel，这是两个音节的食物
5.little playthings with yarn? 接ROSS的who makes me.. 能给你做小绒线玩具？ROSS看RACH走神，都忘了自己该说什么，CHAN就接了这么一句。
6.Could you want her more? 你还能怎么想她？意思是ROSS已经想追求RACH想得不行了。
7.Dee, the sarcastic sister from Whats Happening
ROSS明知道CHAN在说RACH，还装傻问是谁（Who? ），CHAN就说，
是Dee，“Whats Happening ”里面哪个犀利的小妹妹。
意思是，你说是谁，你还嫌我讽刺你讽刺得不够是不是。
“Whats Happening ”是美国七八时年代的一部情景喜剧，讲一个黑人家庭的事，有些类似“Happy Days”，具体没有看过，不知道little playthings with yarn跟这部戏有没有关系。
8.Cross-Eyed Mary 这好象是来自于IRON MAIDEN的一首歌
101 The One Where Monica Gets a New Roommate (The Pilot-The Uncut Version) [Scene: Central Perk, Chandler, Joey, Phoebe, and Monica are there.] Monica: There's nothing to tell! He's just some guy I work with! Joey: C'mon, you're going out with the guy! There's gotta be something wrong with him! Chandler: All right Joey, be nice. So does he have a hump?

Joey: This guy says hello, I wanna kill myself. Monica: Are you okay, sweetie? Ross: I just feel like someone reached down my throat, grabbed my small intestine, pulled it out of my mouth and

【102】The One With The Sonogram At The End antique’s No.2 The One With the Sonogram at the End 上集说道Rach和Ross分别经历了感情镇痛，这一集开始，Ross得知前妻Carol有了身孕，被迫同Carol的同志伴侣Susan一起，陪Carol参加助产训练班。Ross和Monica的父母来吃饭，由于Monica从小就在家里不如Ross优秀，所以再次感到巨大压力，只好抖出Ross 和Carol的事情。Ross和Rachel同病相怜,Rachel把戒指还给Barry, 结果发现，Barry不仅没有寻死觅活，反而过的很开心，原来他已经和Rachel的伴娘Mindy好上了。这一集里面我选了十多个句子简单讲解下。(PS:上次写了一之后，很多坛子上的朋友提出了很多意见，大部分我都虚心接受了，在修订版中，我会都改正过来。我的英语估计也就四级水平，所以所写的只能是抛砖引玉。其实这里很多英语高手，希望大家能一起Continue...如果可能的话，我想联系一下朋友，看看是否可能结集出版。) 1．Rachel: Everything you need to know is in that first kiss. 几个好朋友在一起聊性的话题，Monica说男人不懂接吻的重要性，Joey根本不屑一顾，于是Rachel说了这样一句话，意思是：初吻可以让你明白一切。呵呵，是不是想起自己的初吻了？ 2．Chandler: Yeah, I think for us, kissing is pretty much like an opening act, y'know? I mean it's like the stand-up comedian you have to sit through before Pink Floyd comes out. Chandler也发表了自己的观点，他说接吻很大程度上像是序幕（an opening act）,像是你听Pink Floyd的音乐会之前不得不忍受的笑星们的表演一样。Pink Floyd是美国一支很著名的乐队。能听出Chandler的潜台词吧？ 3．Marsha: Well, she has issues. Issues在这里是烦恼、问题的意思，以后碰到别人好像闷闷不乐的时候，你就可以上前来上一句Do you have any issues? 4．Carol: Marty's still totally paranoid.Carol去Museum里找Ross,Ross非常尴尬，于是没话找话问Carol的家人怎么看待她是Lesbian的事儿，于是Carol告诉他，马堤仍然神经兮兮的。Paranoid这个单词是类似妄想狂的意思，有点histerical的意思。 5．Rachel: Oh, like I wasn't dreading tomorrow enough, having to give it back to him... 'Hi Barry! Remember me? I'm the girl in the veil who stomped on your heart in front of your entire family!' Oh God and now I'm gonna have to return the ring, without the ring, which makes it so much harder...这里“stomp on one’s heart”stom p是用脚踏的意思，可以想象用脚踏在心上是什么意思了吧，对，就是让人心碎的意思。 6．Chandler: Kinda puts that whole pillow thing in perspective, huh, Mon?“kinda”在片中出现的次数非常频繁，也是口语中非常实用的词语，意思是有一点儿，相当于kind of.这句话的意思比较令人费解，结合场景，这里应该是Chandler挖苦Monica不该早些把枕头提前完全搞好。In perspective这里是提前的意思。 7．Monica: I know this is going to sound unbelievably selfish, but, were you planning on bringing up the whole baby/lesbian thing? Because I think it might take some of the heat off me.Ross和Monica的父母来看望他们，由于从小父母就喜欢Ross（因为Ross成绩优异，为人老实，而

【103】The One With The Thumb antique’s NO.3 The One With the Thumb 前两回合（101、102）已经基本上把Friends的主要人物和性格特点展现出来了，从103开始，观众的重点可以放在情节的铺开上，这部情景剧每一集都有一个或者多个故事，但又都同前面的故事相衔接，因此既可以独立成章，又保持了连贯性，这也是能够经久不衰的原因之一吧。 这集的主要情节如下：Ross终于发现真相：童年时的爱犬Chichi死掉了、而不是被送往农场养老，当年被父母善意的欺骗了。Chandler戒烟失败,众人皆不满，于是他巧妙的将矛头指向各人的缺点，籍此转移了注意力。Phoebe从银行得到一笔飞来横财,她去投诉，反而阴差阳错获得更多赔偿；她将钱悉数送人，对方报以一罐苏打水——开罐饮用时发现了一根拇指在里头,饮料公司赔偿给她更多美刀。Monica的新男友Alan大受其余五人爱戴，但Monica最终还是决定和他分手，不料Alan如释重负，原来他早就受不了Monica的五个朋友了。 1. Phoebe: Um, not so good. He walked me to the subway and said 'We should do this again!' Phoebe同一个男人出去约会回来告诉大家，那个男人怎么和她说的。“We should do this again”，表面上好像是以后我们还应该再继续约会，其实这是dating language，往往都是反着说的，近年来网路上有很多类似的帖子，大家可以找来看看，很搞笑的。Phoebe说完之后，大家都明白了，只有可爱的Rachel 傻乎乎的不明所以，还在那里夸好，于是大家只好半是卖弄半是教她的举了其他一些例子。比如“I t's not you'”就是“It is you”，“You're such a nice guy”意思是“I'm gonna be dating leather-wearing alcoholics and complaining about them to you”等等。恋爱中的人们想必能够理解这些吧，是不是经常听到女娃娃讲“I hate u”？ 2．Joey: Yeah. Cushions the blow. 可怜的Rachel问是不是只有她是颗嫩草，善解人意的Joey来了这么一句，意思是take it easy.想想看吧，cushion是垫子的意思，用垫子承接打击，当然是放轻松点的意思咯。这可以作为固定用法记下来。 3．Monica: I mean, why should I let them meet him? I mean, I bring a guy home, and within five minutes they're all over him. I mean, they're like- coyotes, picking off the weak members of the herd . Paula: Listen. As someone who's seen more than her fair share of bad beef, I'll tell you: that is not such a terrible thing. I mean, they're your friends, they're just looking out after you.
