笑翻!華姐「呵呵」的英文標準翻譯來了

「我只想呵呵兩聲。」 

昨天的外交部記者會上,外交部發言人華春瑩回應外媒記者「美方稱中方經常出爾反爾」的問題時,作出上述表態,刷遍輿論場。

「呵呵」這個詞什麼意思,不必多說,中國網友會心一笑。那麼用英語,「呵呵」該怎麼翻譯呢?長安街知事(微信ID:Capitalnews)注意到,今天,外交部發言人辦公室官方微信給出了答案。

7月31日的外交部記者會上,有記者問,美國總統特朗普稱,中方經常出爾反爾。如果要等到明年大選他連任之後才簽訂協議,那一定會是一個更差的協議。中方對此有何評論? 

。我只想「呵呵」兩聲。(On your third question, I have seen relevant reports and twitter. Hmm. How interesting.)

劃重點:

我只想「呵呵」兩聲

Hmm. How interesting!

腦補一個「微笑」畫面

除此之外,這次記者會上,其實還有不少「呵呵」內容。

比如華春瑩表示:事實上,(美國)自己生病,卻讓別人吃藥,也是沒有任何用的。這句話翻譯成英語是「In fact, it's useless to ask others to take pills when the US is ill itself. 」

長安街知事(微信ID:Capitalnews)注意到,此前,外交部的「神翻譯」也頗為有趣。

比如,2018年8月,華春瑩曾在記者會上表示:對於美方各種花式「甩鍋」,對不起,我們不想接,也不能接。官方翻譯為“The US wants to make China a scapegoat. But so sorry, we don't want to be one. And don't even think of making us one.”

再比如,發言人耿爽曾表示「中國不是嚇大的」,官方翻譯為“threats and intimidation will never work on China(威脅及恐嚇永遠對中國起不了作用)”;

7月3日,耿爽火力全開,曾連用了10個成語硬剛英國外交大臣亨特的涉港言論。這些成語是這樣翻譯的——

不思悔改、信口雌黃:keeps lying without remorse

自作多情、痴心妄想:nothing more than self-entertaining

厚顏無恥:How brazen is that

不自量力:overreach

嗯……看來,還是中文更加霸氣!

附7月31日記者會雙語實錄(節選)

稱,在上海舉行的中美經貿磋商結束得很快。是否表明此輪談判不歡而散?此外,美國總統特朗普稱,中方經常出爾反爾。如果要等到明年大選他連任之後才簽訂協議,那一定會是一個更差的協議。中方對此有何評論? 

Q: First question, China's Ministry of Culture and Tourism just released this information. In view of the current cross-strait relations, it decided to suspend the individual travel of residents of 47 mainland cities to Taiwan from August 1. Taiwan media say this is related to Tsai Ing-wen's recent transit in the US and her blatant remarks on the recent protests in Hong Kong. What is your comment on that? Second question, yesterday you said the Hong Kong-related article in Rodong Sinmun is a voice of justice while criticizing US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo's comments on Hong Kong. Some in Hong Kong say this is double standards. Do you have any response to that? Third question, the media just reported that the trade talks in Shanghai were very short. Does that signal an unsuccessful meeting? Besides, President Trump tweeted that China has been flip-flopping, and that if China wants to wait until he gets re-elected next year, the deal they get will be much tougher than what we are negotiating now. What's your comment? 

答:關於第一個問題,台灣是中國的一部分,兩岸事務不屬於外交問題。請你向國台辦詢問。  

A: On your first question, Taiwan is part of China, and cross-strait affairs are not diplomatic matters. I'd refer you to the Taiwan Affairs Office of the State Council.

關於第二個問題,我不知道你提到的是香港哪些人認為我昨天的表態有雙重標準。我說的都是客觀的,是根據事情本身的是非曲直作出判斷和評價的。 

On your second question, I don't know which people in Hong Kong think my comments yesterday are double standards. What I said is objective. I make judgments and comments based on facts.

。我只想「呵呵」兩聲。 

On your third question, I have seen relevant reports and twitter. Hmm. How interesting.

因為你知道,中美經貿磋商一年多來,是誰出爾反爾、言而無信、反覆無常,大家都有目共睹。而中方對於經貿磋商的立場始終如一。雙方經貿團隊目前正在上海磋商,你剛才說到的最新情況,我還不掌握。在這個時候,美方放話試圖極限施壓是沒有意義的。事實上,自己生病,卻讓別人吃藥,也是沒有任何用的。我認為,在經貿磋商問題上,美方應該更多地展現誠意和誠信。 

We all know who has been flip-flopping in the trade talks over the past year or so. In contrast, China's position remains consistent. The Chinese and American negotiating teams are now in Shanghai for trade talks. I'm not aware of the latest information you mentioned. It just doesn't make any sense if the US tries to exert maximum pressure at this particular time. In fact, it's useless to ask others to take pills when the US is ill itself. I believe the US needs to show more sincerity and good faith on this issue. 

行政長官李家超表示,海峽兩岸和香港、澳門同根同源,血脈相連,交流緊密頻繁。世界百年未有之大變局正加速演進,面對保護主義籠罩全球,應以開放包容破局;面對單邊主義威脅發展,應以多邊合作應對;面對貿易秩序受到破壞,應以團結共啓新程;面對傳統經濟動能放軟,應以科技創新賦能。

李家超在一個海峽兩岸和港澳經貿合作研討會致辭表示,香港在一國兩制下,擁有內聯外通的優勢,商業法規全球第一,匯聚內地和國際數據,為科技企業拓展業務提供重要的支撐。內地高端產業基礎雄厚,全力投入未來產業,擁有龐大的市場,成果轉化優勢明顯。

他認為,台灣的半導體信息產業技術享譽國際,競爭優勢巨大,加上澳門對國際葡語市場特別熟悉,有信心海峽兩岸及港澳在數字經濟、人工智能等新興產業,將繼續煥發生機、互惠共贏。

李家超表示,「積力之所舉,則無不勝也;眾智之所為,絕無不成也」,相信只要把握變局中的機遇,拓展深化彼此關係,共繪未來合作藍圖,將能在挑戰中開創更輝煌的未來。
