都是套路!
一天双语君问小伙伴:
双语君:诶诶,你知道网上的“套路”是啥意思不?
小伙伴:(一本正经脸)“套路”在新华词典上的解释是:
1). 编成套的武术动作;2). 程式化的技巧和方法。
双语君:……都是套路!
网络buzzword(热词)“套路”一般可译为:
games / tricks
对某人“耍花招”,把某人给“玩儿了”
比如:
play games with somebody
play tricks on somebody
trap/setup
trap和setup都作为名词,表示“陷阱”,即“套路”“。
比如:
Don't buy his words. You will fall into his trap.
别信他的话,都特么是套路。
流行例句:
▷ 多一点真诚,少一点套路。
Show more sincerity, play less tricks/setups.
▷ 套路玩得深,谁把谁当真。
You are so good at playing tricks; let's play together.
▷ 我走过最远的路,就是你的套路。
The longest road I've taken, is the tricky way you set me up.
经典套路,大家自己感受一下:
学霸:“我也没复习。”“我都没准备。”“我在图书馆浪了一天。”
吃货:“我要减肥。”
网购党:“最后一件,再买剁手。”
老师(敲黑板):"大家注意了,这道是送分题。"
老师(痛心状)“你们这届是我教过最差的一届。”
你:我已认真阅读并同意该用户协议。(打钩)
领导开会:“我就简单说几句。”
女朋友:没事啊。我没生气。
“跟你说个事,你要保证不告诉别人。”“算了,我还是不说了。”
“有空常联系。”“改天一起吃饭。”“下次我请。”
“你人真的很好,只是我现在还不想谈恋爱。”

友谊的小船
漫画师喃东尼创作了“友谊的小船说翻就翻”("friend ship" sinks)系列漫画,走红社交媒体。
Friend ship友谊一词本来就是:friend(朋友的)ship(船),也有网友机智地音译为“翻的ship”。
后来延伸出了各种“翻船体”:
▷爱情版:友谊的小船说翻就翻,爱情的巨轮说沉就沉。
The ship of friendship sinks easily, so does the ship of love.
▷亲情版:友谊的小船说翻就翻,亲情的火苗说灭就灭。
The ship of friendship sinks easily, while the flame of family love goes out swiftly.

▷吃货版:友谊的小船说翻就翻,刚吃的晚饭说饿就饿。
The ship of friendship sinks easily, and a foodie gets hungry as soon as supper is consumed.
