美剧<<生活大爆炸>>中有一段关于childish的对话

摘自生活大爆炸S10E14

以下是对话文本

Hey, are you okay?

人家很不好

Not really.

你怎么了

What's going on?

我真希望自己没用过那机器

I wish I never tried that device.

我知道上次用过按摩椅后  我也说了同样的话

And I know I said the same thing after the massage chair,

但这次我是认真的

but this time I mean it.

我很抱歉莱纳德和佩妮伤害了你的感情

I'm sorry Leonard and Penny hurt your feelings.

比那个严重多了

It's more than that.

是我的问题

It's me.

我一直都知道

I always knew

自己在解读别人情绪方面有困难

I had trouble recognizing other people's emotions,

但机器把这个问题凸显了出来

but that machine just made it so real.

每个人都有需要帮助的问题

Well, everybody has things that they need help with.

比如我  我摘了眼镜就看不清楚

Like me-- I can't see without my glasses.

现在我看你就是一个可爱的粉团子

And right now you're just a, a cute, pink smudge wearing

裹着一身孩子气的绿团子

a childish green smudge.

我以为自己有进步了  结果并没有

I thought I was getting better at it, but clearly I'm not.

你改善很多了

Yes, you are.

好几次我不开心时

There have definitely been days

你都看出来了

when I was sad and you could tell.

但那就像是瓮中捉鳖  手到擒来

Yeah, but that's shooting fish in a barrel.

你本身就是个悲伤聚合体

You're kind of a sad sack.

抱歉  我不该怎么说

I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that.

我只是很难过

I'm just upset.

不  你看

No, see, right there,

你能觉察到你伤了我的心

you knew you hurt my feelings.

我真为你骄傲

And I'm proud of you--

这肯定是受了我爸影响

for reasons I'm sure have something to do with my father.

如果你不喜欢那台机器

And if you don't like

就不要用了

that machine, get rid of it.

因为我爱的就是原来的你

Because I love you exactly the way you are.
