【被男客人逗笑記】
MY HUMOUROUS MALE CLIENTS
不知是不是物以類聚,人以群分的關係,原來我的客人也蠻幽默的。
事件一:
男客人:「老師!哇,你真人的臉比較小,在螢幕上看你的臉是比較大的!」
我抬頭看著男客人。
「你今天來,是幫我看相的嗎?」
•
事件二:
我:「X先生,之前我這樣對你,是因為⋯⋯」
男客人一臉殷勤的說:「沒事,師父!你不用解釋,我都明白!我見過很多高人,高人高人一等,所以性格上都是有點奇怪,有些怪癖的!」
欸,不對,這是對我的讚譽嗎?怎麼聽起來怪怪的?🤨
•
事件三:
我站在餐廳外,等老公結帳。
突然,一把聲音:「李老師!」
我轉過頭,欸,一家大小,是不熟悉的臉孔,應該是影片的觀眾吧!
帶著口罩都能被認出,對方真是好眼力。
我立刻現出「空姐式的微笑」,並打招呼。#反應快
男士告訴我,他很想請我到他家看風水。我點頭說,可以等報名表開放時報名。
之後⋯⋯
他眼睛就一直盯著我的雙眸看,再三的問:
「老師,你⋯⋯看得到,對嗎?」
我心裡的OS:我今天戴著隱形眼鏡,看你們一家人的樣子很清楚。我們第一次見面,我沒有認錯,我視力沒問題啊~
所以我很自然的點頭:「看到啊!」
男士保持著禮貌的距離,頭繼續往前,目不轉睛的研究著我的眼睛,喃喃自語:「我看老師的眼睛,是看得到的。」
然後,彷彿得到答案後,男士臉上才露出滿意的笑容。
看著他的表情,心裡覺得有點莫名其妙。
我只是因為以前用錯眼霜,眼袋那裡長了很多油泡而已,眼睛沒什麼問題啊~
告別後,我站在電動扶梯上,腦袋好像被五雷轟頂似後,我才猛然驚覺⋯⋯🤯
原來他剛才是在問,我到底是不是開了天眼,能否看到無形的朋友!

I wonder whether it’s because of the theory “Birds of the same feather flock together”. I realise a number of my clients do have a funny bone in them.
Incident 1:
Male client, “Wow, Teacher! Your face in person is smaller! Your face look bigger on screen!”
I raised my head to look at him.
Me, “Are you here today to do face reading for me?”
•
Incident 2:
Me, “Mr X, I treated you that way earlier on, because ⋯”
Male client earnestly chirped, “No worries, Master! You don’t have to explain. I totally understand. I have met many expert masters. Being superior experts, they are all eccentric in their own ways and all have some quirks!”
Erm, is this a compliment for me? Why does it sound weird somehow? 🤨
•
Incident 3:
I was waiting outside the restaurant for the husband to settle the bill.
Out of the blue, I heard a voice, “Teacher Lee!”
I turned my head around and saw a family of unfamiliar faces. They must be viewers of my videos, I thought.
I was mildly surprised to be recognized with my mask on. They sure have good eyesight.
I flashed my signature SQ smile at them and greeted them. #quickreaction
The man of the family told me that he wished to invite me to his home for a Feng Shui audit. I nodded my head and told him to register when my forms opened.
And then…
His eyes fixated on mine, and asked repeatedly,
“Teacher, you…can see, right?”
The OS inside my mind started racing. I was wearing contact lenses and I had no problem seeing your faces. I was pretty sure that today was our first time meeting. There was no issue with my eyes.
So I naturally nodded my head and replied, “Yes, I can see!”
He kept a polite distance but his head inched forward a teeny bit, with his eyes relentlessly exploring mine.
He then mumbled, “I see that Teacher’s eyes are able to see.”
His face began to smile, as if his exploration had gotten him a satisfactory answer.
Looking at his expression, I felt baffled.
I only had many milia seeds under my eyes due to using the wrong eye cream in my youth, but apart from that, my eyes are perfectly fine.
After bidding farewell, as I took the escalator, my brain lit up as if it was struck by the five thunders.
I suddenly realised…
The male viewer was asking if I had the clairvoyant eye and could see the invisible!

#Excuse #my #French
這句習語 .. 很少機會用得上;即使用,恐怕亦會流於做作 .. 真的想用,可考慮先戴「頭盔」..
—————
#講法文要抱歉?
明報英文 | 毛孟靜
//先看這句話:
"Excuse my French, but you look like shxt." 直譯是「對不起我的法文不太好,但你看起來像一堆 X 。」
令人摸不着頭腦吧。首先,講法文為什麼要致歉?其次,隨後根本沒有用上法文。
Excuse my French 在英語世界中,其實是一個口頭習語,used to apologise for swearing,預先為後面的不雅字句致歉。
· Excuse my French, but you are an axxhole. 抱歉(要說髒話),你是個屁 X。
Cambridge Dictionary(《劍橋字典》)提供的例句是:
· Pardon my French, but that is a damned shame! 對不起這真是天殺的遺憾!
這樣說來,就是把法文等同粗口,好像不太好?不是呢。網上這樣解釋:
When English people used French expressions in conversation, they would often apologise for it, presumably because many of their listeners were not familiar with the language.
留意用的是過去式。這個說法源自19世紀,其時英國人喜歡在對話中加插少許法文,於是或出於禮貌,先為自己的法語發音致歉;也因為早年並非許多英國人都懂法文,此舉有間接表達自己文化程度稍高一級之意。
漸漸, Excuse 或 pardon my French就給戲謔地視為在要說一些禁語之前的「事先聲明」。今日,不論講與聽這話的人,都知道說的不是法文,也根本跟法文無關,純粹是日常的一個不正規的 informal、幽默的 humourous 或 lighthearted嬉戲的表達方式罷了。情况有點像我們口語中的「鬼佬」gweilo,起初或包含一點不懷好意,但現代一般已理解為無傷大雅 harmless、甚至帶點親切感的稱謂。
原也以為,excuse my French 已屬老一輩的語言,至新世代該已式微。但原來不對,因為本文開頭引述的一句對白,來自不過數月前出版的一本美國流行小說,足證仍是北美的日常用語。
英文不是我們的母語,而這句習語不單歷史悠久,且牽涉其他語文的互相引用和參照,相信我們很少機會用得上;即使用,恐怕亦會流於做作。重點是大家明白意思,在別人講的時候不生誤會就好。
若真的想用,可考慮先戴「頭盔」,講明純粹借用:
· Like they say 像他們說的, "Excuse my French"...
· To borrow what you'd say 借用你會說的, "Pardon my French"...//
