美剧英语口语速记（听美剧学英语42期）

Hello，这里是地道英语，我是W！今天这个视频来自Desperate Housewives的第一季第10集。阴差阳错Bree发现自己的丈夫Rex跟Maisy有一腿，便来找Maisy对峙，没想到Maisy竟然毫不含糊的承认了。快来跟W一起看看里面地道的英语表达吧！

Bree: I see. You know, you are pretty brazen for a woman who just admitted, however tacitly, that she just slept with my husband. If I told anyone in this neighborhood, they would never speak to you again. 我明白了。你是个很厚颜无耻的女人。尽管很隐晦，但你还是承认了和我丈夫有奸情。如果我告诉邻居们这个事情，她们永远都不会和你说话了。brazen: 厚脸皮的、恬不知耻的 admit: 承认、接受 tacitly: 暗示的、不言而喻的 sleep with: 与…睡觉、与…性交 tell: 讲述、告诉 neighborhood: 街坊、邻居

Bree: Oh, I don't hate you, Maisy. I pity you. 不，我不恨你， Maisy 我可怜你。pity: 同情、怜悯

知识点：

【1】have an affair with = sleep with：出轨，有一腿。这个两个短语出现的频率极高。在《听美剧学英语35期：It's just sex, it's totally harmless》和《听美剧学英语36期：It's not even close to being over 这事没完》中都有出现。

【2】其实作为女人，Bree早就意识到自己的老公有特殊需求 certain needs，在《听美剧学英语20期：Take me, right here, right now!》中她就努力想要跟他沟通一下，只是Rex太胆怯不敢说出来。

【3】You're not going to tell a soul: 你不会告诉任何人。这里的soul代指人，在《听美剧学英语29期：You almost killed another human being》中Bree对Andrew说过：What I'm worried about, Andrew, is that you don't seem to have a soul. 这里的soul是灵魂，良心的意思。

【4】humiliation 是贯穿全剧的一个词，毕竟大家都会觉得丢人，感到羞耻。《听美剧学英语30期：I'm so sorry they have me as a mother.》中Lynette就觉得不能好照顾自己的孩子是一件 humiliating 事情。
