5 BRILLIANTLY CANADIAN CHAT-UP LINES
5個絕妙的加式搭訕臺詞

Listen: I have a girlfriend. We’ve been dating for a long while now. We’re happy. And we’ll remain that way so long as she doesn’t read this article. For here I tell you how to finagle your way to the liquid romance of good conversations, long laughs, and stolen desires. I tell you how to get the Canadian girl of your dreams (kind of like the Canadian girl of my dreams, except, well, she’s mine already).
我有個在一起很久了的女友，我們很開心。如果她不看到這篇文章的話我們還會一直好下去。此文中，我會告訴你怎樣和心儀的女孩聊得開心、樂得開懷，互相點燃愛火，以及怎樣追到你夢中的加拿大女孩（就像我的夢中情人一樣的女孩，但我已經(jīng)追到她了）。

These are conversation starters, ice breakers in a Canadian climate that has too much ice to begin with. For this reason, these introductory pick-up lines are often cheesy. But that’s okay – as long as your intended paramour isn’t lactose intolerant.
在加拿大這么冷的地方，打破僵局的話頭不快準狠可不行。所以這下面的話大多肉麻又甜膩，但只要你喜歡的對象不是乳糖不耐癥患者就沒關(guān)系……

FOR THE BAR
在酒吧

Canadian bars and pubs are an oasis of delirium, frustration, and single people. They offer a comfortable environment to relax, drink, and – if done correctly – work your way into a relationship if only for a little while.
加拿大的酒吧是發(fā)瘋買醉的好去處，是饑渴單身人士的綠洲。人們在酒吧里可以邊放松邊喝酒，只要方法得當，你可能還會有艷遇。

“Do you mind holding my Molson Canadian while I buy you yours?”
“可以幫我拿一下Molson Canadian嗎，我得騰出手去給你買一杯?！?/span>

“Did you fall from heaven, and were the injuries covered by our healthcare?” Social, universal healthcare is always funny. Ask the United States.“
你是從天堂掉落凡間的嗎？治療摔傷用了我們的醫(yī)保嗎？”全社會統(tǒng)一的醫(yī)保總是可以拿來做笑梗，問問美國就知道了。

FOR THE CLASSROOM
在教室

Universities are a hive of frenzied passions, unadulterated inhibitions, and youthful naivety. In other words, it’s the perfect place to try some of these lines.
大學(xué)充滿了狂熱、禁欲或幼稚的年輕人。換句話說，在這里試試下面這幾句話再好不過了。

If it’s a music class, say, “Do you like Justin Bieber?” There’s only one answer to this question, so it’s an easy discussion to set up. There’s a small chance that they’ll say yes, though. If they do, then turn away. I have just saved you from making a horrible decision.
如果在上音樂課，說“你喜歡賈斯汀·比伯嗎？”能接受的答案只有一個，所以你要準備的對話內(nèi)容很簡單。也有人會說喜歡，雖然概率很小。但一旦碰上這種人，就別和她講話了。我可在你犯下大錯前拉了你一把。

If in a French course, say, “Can you translate this: J’aime tu.” They’ll tell you it means, “I like you.” And you’ll say, “Don’t you think that’s a bit strong? We just met.” And then they’ll laugh, and you’ll keep talking, and, well… you’ll thank me later.
如果在上法語課，就說：“你知道‘J’aime tu’是什么意思嗎？”她們會說，“我喜歡你”。你回道，“你不覺得太快了嗎？我們才見面呀。”然后她們就會笑，你繼續(xù)說你的，最后……你就會感謝我了。

And last of all, if it’s a political science class, say, “At least I’m not?Stephen Harper.” The fact that you’re not Canada’s increasingly unpopular Prime Minister probably won’t hurt your chances
最后，如果是政治課，說：“還好我不是Stephen Harper?！彼羌幽么蟮氖紫?，其民眾支持率屢創(chuàng)新低，所以這話可能非常合妹子的心意。

FOR THE CLUB
在夜店

These are?pulse-pounding, thought-erasing establishments of a special breed of young night-rats. You’ll?inevitable?find yourself stuck in one of these black holes one day; the gravity is too strong to avoid. So, too, could a?momentary lover?– so remember these lines.
年輕的夜貓子們一去夜店就心跳加快，大腦一片空白。有一天，你也會無可避免地陷入這些個黑洞中；它們的吸引力太強了，艷遇也是一樣。所以要牢記這些話！

“Drake’s lyrics don’t compare to talking to you.” Everyone loves a reference to Canadian rap.“
和你講話比聽Drake的歌好多了。”所有人都喜歡拿加拿大說唱來說笑。

“I want some?poutine; want some?” As I said, the first-impression pick-up lines will be cheesy – particularly when they involve cheese?curds. Don’t hold back though: poutine on the way home is always a good excuse to escape with your eardrums still?intact, and maybe even a lucky someone to join you.“
我想吃poutine（譯者注：加拿大國菜，薯條加奶酪），你想吃嗎？”我之前說過，你乍看這些開場白可能覺得很油膩（cheesy）——而且這一句本來就牽扯到奶酪（cheese）。大膽說出口吧，回家路上吃poutine本來就是逃離繁雜場所的好理由，有人一起就再好不過了。
