时间Wed Mar 23 14:05:01 2011
因为课堂上要提供笑话一则,
故想请版上高手帮忙看一下这样翻译顺吗?
我比较不懂的是像 "大傻", 『大傻!千万别吝啬啊!』有没有更好的使用方法 ?
感谢~
译文:
When a
simpleton enters a country with his lovely myna,
a customs officer stopped his way and said,
“Sir, your myna had to pay taxes.”
Simpleton asked, “How much should I pay for it?”
Then customs officer replied,
"US$50 for alive one, if it were specimen Only need US$15”
Almost at same time that myna cried,
"simpleton, do not stingy!”
原文:
大傻入境某国时,带了只八哥,
海关人员叫住他说:『先生!你这只八哥也得付税金。』
『应该付多少啊?』
『活的50美元,如果是标本就只要15美元!』
此时听见那只八哥嘶哑的叫着: 『大傻!千万别吝啬啊!』
