【重点词汇讲解】
1. stall that wedding
stall:阻止,拖延,推迟。如果说要拦截某人,就是stall sb。
2. we got an emergency here 出事了,赶紧的!
emergency在口语中可以表示一切紧急事件,失火了是emergency,炉子烧开了也是emergency
3. we're gonna make it
make it是口语中表示“做到、成功”的通俗说法,如:I'm afraid we can't make it to the 7:00 session。我怕我们赶不上七点那一场的电影了。
4. Do you Eric, take Vanessa, to be your lawfully wedded wife, for as long as you both shall live?
标准婚礼用语,注意这里的“合法妻子”可不是legally wedded wife,是lawfully。电影《四个婚礼和一个葬礼》中,有位紧张的神父一不留神将lawfully说成了awfully,awfully wedded,这让新人情何以堪……
