一些调整
Some tweaking?

“调整”
“tweaking.”
-他就是这么说的 -调 整
– Yeah, that’s what he said. – T-W-E-A-K-I-N-G?
-调整 好吧 -他就是这么说的
– Tweaking. Okay, all right. – That’s what he said.
我听上去感觉他已经结婚了
It sounds to me like he’s married.
已婚 有三个孩子

你怎么能这么说
It is a terrible thing to say.
-他不可能已婚 -他提到了项目
– He could not possibly be married. – Project.
你怎么知道 你问过他吗
How do you know? Have you asked him?
你有没有问过 “你结婚了吗”
Have you said, “Are you married?”
-你在邮件里问过他吗 -不 没有 我不会问的
– Have you written to him? – No, no, I’m not going to– No.
我知道现在问这个可能有点晚了 但是…
I know this is probably a little late to be asking but…
你结婚了吗
are you married?
我结婚了吗
Am I married?
这算什么问题
What kind of question is that?
你怎么能问我这种问题
How can you ask me that?
你难道不了解我吗
Don’t you know me at all?
等等 我懂了
Wait, I get it.
你朋友告诉你
Your friends are telling you
我们不见面是因为我已经结婚了
the reason we haven’t met is that I’m married.
我说得没错吧
Am I right?
-所以他没有回答问题 -他回答了
– So he didn’t answer the question. – Yes, he did.
-他没回答 -他回答了 回答了
– He did not. – He did to– He did.
他看穿了我

他这人就是这样
which is just, by the way, exactly like him.
他没回答那个问题 对吗
He did not answer the question, did he?
是的
No.
也许他很胖
Maybe he’s fat.
他很胖 他是个胖子
He’s fat. He’s a fatty.
我不在乎这些
I don’t care about that.
他超胖你也不在乎吗
You don’t care that he’s so fat…
他要是胖到出门都得靠起重机吊
He’s– Well, this guy, he has to be removed from his house by a crane.
你都不在乎吗
You don’t care.
这不太可能吧
That is very unlikely.
你这也太不现实了
That is completely ridiculous.
所以他网名叫什么
So what’s his handle?
我不会给他发邮件的 你是担心这个吗
I’m not going to write to him. Is that what you worried about?
你觉得我会给他发邮件吗
You think I’m going to e-mail him?

他在旅行的途中
The number of his souvenir shot glasses…
-收集了152个纪念酒杯 -不 这个数字代表…
– that he’s collected in his travels. – No. The number…
这个数字代表… 他家地址

等我写完之后 她很想读读看
She’s excited to read it when I’m finished.
谁会想到我会开始写书呢
Who would ever have thought that I would write?
要是我没有这么多时间
I mean, if I hadn’t had all this time.
-你知道吗 -知道什么
– You know what? – What?
其实是他让我开始考虑动笔写作
The truth is he was the one who started me thinking about writing.
