You look really young to be a manager. Jack,我可以問一下——你幾歲啊?你看起來很年輕,不像當主管的。 Jack Ha, thanks. Honestly though, age is one of those things people here don’t ask straight out — it can come across as a little personal. 哈,謝啦。不過老實說,年齡是這裡的人不會直接問的事——這樣問會給人有點太私人的感覺(come across as personal)。 Vivian Really? In Taiwan it’s totally normal — it’s how we figure out how to address someone politely. 真的嗎?在台灣這超正常的——我們靠這個才知道該怎麼禮貌稱呼對方。 Jack That makes sense over there. Here it’s a bit of a touchy subject, especially at work. People just guess and never say it out loud. 在你們那邊很合理。這裡它算是個敏感話題(touchy subject),尤其在職場。大家就默默猜,從不講出來。 Vivian Got it. Okay, different question — do you mind me asking what you make? The pay here seems great. 懂了。好,換個問題——你介意我問你薪水多少嗎(what you make)?這裡待遇好像很好。 Jack Oof, that’s an even bigger one. Salary is pretty much taboo in American offices. Asking what someone makes really puts them on the spot. 噢,那個更嚴重。薪水在美國職場幾乎是禁忌(taboo)。問別人賺多少會讓人很難堪、下不了台(put them on the spot)。 Vivian Wow, I had no idea. We compare salaries all the time back home. What about family — are you married? Any kids? 哇,我完全不知道。我們在台灣超愛比薪水的。那家庭呢——你結婚了嗎?有小孩嗎? Jack See, those feel personal too. Some people are fine with it, but others find it intrusive — you never know who’s going through something. 你看,那些也很私人。有些人不介意,但有些人會覺得被冒犯(intrusive)——你永遠不知道誰正在經歷什麼難關(going through something)。 Vivian Oh no. I think I asked Megan all of that this morning. And I told her she’d lost weight! 糟糕。我今天早上好像把這些全問了 Megan。我還跟她說她瘦了! Jack Yeah… even compliments about weight can backfire here. “You’ve lost weight” can sound like “you used to look worse.” Safer to just say she looks great. 嗯……連稱讚體重在這裡都可能適得其反(backfire)。「你瘦了」聽起來像「你以前比較難看」。比較安全的是直接說她氣色很好。 Vivian So what CAN I ask? I feel like every topic is a landmine! 那我到底能問什麼?我覺得每個話題都是地雷(landmine)! Jack Stick to the safe zone — weekends, food, travel, shows, pets. Ask what people do, not what they are. “Any fun plans this weekend?” never fails. 守住安全區就好——週末、美食、旅遊、追劇、寵物。問對方「做什麼」,別問對方「是什麼」。「這週末有什麼好玩的計畫?」永遠不會錯。 Vivian Okay — skip age, money, marriage, weight. When in doubt, ask about their dog. Got it. 好——跳過年齡、錢、婚姻、體重。拿不定主意時(when in doubt),就問對方的狗。懂了。 重點單字 Vocabulary Boost come across as/ kʌm əˈkrɔːs æz / phr.v. 給人…的感覺、被別人看成…(指你「無意間」留下的印象)。後面接形容詞或名詞:come across as rude(顯得沒禮貌)、come across as nosy(顯得愛打聽)。重點在「你不一定是那樣,但聽起來像」——談社交分寸的核心字。 It can come across as a little personal. (這樣問會給人有點太私人的感覺。) touchy subject/ ˈtʌtʃi ˈsʌbdʒɪkt / n. 敏感話題(一講就可能讓人不舒服的題目)。touchy 本意「一碰就痛」,引申為「敏感、易怒」。a touchy subject、a sensitive subject 同義。年齡、薪水、政治、宗教都是經典 touchy subjects。 Here it’s a bit of a touchy subject, especially at work. (這裡它算是個敏感話題,尤其在職場。) taboo/ təˈbuː / n./adj. 禁忌(社會默契上「不該做、不該談」的事)。比 touchy subject 更強——touchy 是敏感,taboo 是根本不該碰。”Salary is taboo”(薪水是禁忌)。名詞、形容詞同形:a social taboo(社會禁忌)、a taboo topic(禁忌話題)。 Salary is pretty much taboo in American offices. (薪水在美國職場幾乎是禁忌。) put someone on the spot/ pʊt ˈsʌmwʌn ɑːn ðə spɑːt / idiom 讓某人難堪/下不了台(突然問或要求,逼對方當場回應、很尷尬)。the spot = 被聚光燈照到的位置。”Don’t put me on the spot”(別讓我難堪)超常用。問薪水、突然點人發言都會 put someone on the spot。 Asking what someone makes really puts them on the spot. (問別人賺多少會讓人很下不了台。) intrusive/ ɪnˈtruːsɪv / adj. 侵犯隱私的、過度干涉的(問太多、管太寬,讓人覺得界線被踩)。動詞是 intrude(闖入)。”an intrusive question”(冒犯的問題)。比 nosy(愛打聽,偏口語負面)更正式、更強調「侵犯界線」。 Others find it intrusive. (有些人會覺得被冒犯/太干涉。) go through something/ ɡoʊ θruː ˈsʌmθɪŋ / phr. 正在經歷難關(go through = 經歷、熬過某段艱難時期)。”She’s going through a lot right now”(她最近很不好過)、”going through a divorce”(正在經歷離婚)。是英文裡體貼、委婉指「對方有難處」的萬用說法,不用講白細節。 You never know who’s going through something. (你永遠不知道誰正在經歷難關。) backfire/ ˈbækfaɪər / v. 適得其反、弄巧成拙(本意「回火、逆火」,引申為好意或計畫反而造成反效果)。”The plan backfired”(計畫弄巧成拙)。稱讚別人瘦了卻 backfire——你以為在誇,對方聽成「以前比較胖」。 Even compliments about weight can backfire here. (連稱讚體重在這裡都可能適得其反。) landmine/ ˈlændmaɪn / n. 地雷(比喻:一不小心就引爆的危險話題或處境)。a conversational landmine(對話地雷)、step on a landmine(踩到地雷)。形容「表面平靜、踩到就炸」的敏感話題超傳神,跟中文「地雷」用法幾乎一樣。 I feel like every topic is a landmine! (我覺得每個話題都是地雷!) nosy/ ˈnoʊzi / adj. 愛打聽的、好管閒事的(從 nose 鼻子來,「鼻子伸太長」)。”Don’t be nosy”(別那麼愛打聽)、”a nosy neighbor”(愛探聽的鄰居)。問太多私人問題就會被嫌 nosy——這正是台灣式關心在西方最容易被貼的標籤。 Asking too many personal questions can make you seem nosy. (問太多私人問題會讓你顯得愛打聽。) when in doubt/ wɛn ɪn daʊt / phr. 拿不定主意時、不確定的話(萬用開頭,後面接建議)。”When in doubt, ask about their dog”(不確定就問對方的狗)、”When in doubt, say less”(不確定就少說)。給建議、下結論時超好用的句型起手式,口語又有智慧感。 When in doubt, ask about their weekend. (拿不定主意時,就問對方週末做什麼。) -- Hosting provided by SoundOn [https://www.soundon.fm/]
