今天的這段對(duì)話，在談?wù)撟婕?br />  
你的祖籍是在哪里？來(lái)自愛(ài)爾蘭的祖父母在英國(guó)感覺(jué)怎么樣
 
來(lái)聽(tīng)今天的講解:
 
A: Kate, where are you from?
 
凱特，你來(lái)自哪里？
 
B: I'm from London in England.
 
我來(lái)自英國(guó)倫敦。
 
A: OK, and your heritage is..?
 
好，那你的祖籍是？
 
B: My heritage is Irish. My grandparents were Irish, both sets of grandparents.
 
我的祖籍是愛(ài)爾蘭。我祖父母都是愛(ài)爾蘭人，外祖父母也是愛(ài)爾蘭人。
 
A: Oh, wow. What part of Ireland were they from?
 
哦，哇。他們來(lái)自愛(ài)爾蘭的哪里？
 
B: They're from Galway City.
 
他們來(lái)自戈?duì)栱f市。
 
A: Where is that?
 
那是哪里？
 
B: That's on the west coast of Ireland. It's really beautiful there. Absolutely gorgeous.
 
在愛(ài)爾蘭的西海岸。那里非常美。極其的漂亮。
 
A: Great, and do they move to England?
 
很棒，他們后來(lái)搬到英國(guó)了嗎？
 
B: Yeah, my grandfather actually came over to become a priest, but obviously he didn't. So yeah, then, he met my grandmother who also come over from England and then they got married. So, yeah, my name is an Irish name. Kate's an Irish name and Kenny as well, my surname. It's a very Irish name.
 
對(duì)，實(shí)際上我祖父來(lái)到英國(guó)想成為牧師，但是當(dāng)然他并沒(méi)有當(dāng)牧師。之后他遇到了同樣來(lái)到英國(guó)的我祖母，然后他們結(jié)婚了。所以，其實(shí)我的名字是愛(ài)爾蘭名字。凱特是愛(ài)爾蘭名字，當(dāng)然我的姓氏肯尼也是愛(ài)爾蘭姓氏。是一個(gè)很普遍的愛(ài)爾蘭名字。
 
A: Wow, so now what was it like having Irish grandparents in England?
 
哇，那來(lái)自愛(ài)爾蘭的祖父母在英國(guó)感覺(jué)怎么樣？
 
B: I think initially for them it was difficult when they first came over because there weren't many jobs for the Irish and there as quite a lot of prejudice against the Irish, but it's wonderful having Irish heritage because there's such funny warm kind people. Really interesting. They can tell a good story so it was great to have that.
 
我想剛開(kāi)始的時(shí)候，他們剛過(guò)來(lái)的時(shí)候覺(jué)得很困難，因?yàn)楫?dāng)時(shí)沒(méi)有什么工作提供給愛(ài)爾蘭人，而且對(duì)愛(ài)爾蘭人也有許多偏見(jiàn)，但是擁有愛(ài)爾蘭血統(tǒng)很棒，因?yàn)樗麄兌际秋L(fēng)趣又熱情的人。他們真的很風(fēng)趣。他們可以講很棒的故事，所以擁有愛(ài)爾蘭血統(tǒng)很棒。
 
A: Yeah, so have you been to Ireland?
 
嗯，那你去過(guò)愛(ài)爾蘭嗎？
 
B: Oh, yeah. Many times. Yeah.
 
哦，是的。去過(guò)很多次。
 
A: Did you go and see where they grew up and...
 
那你有去看過(guò)他們成長(zhǎng)的地方或是……
 
B: Yeah.
 
是的。
 
A: Cool.
 
不錯(cuò)。
 
B: It's a beautiful place. I've been there lots of times. I want to go back. Definitely. Really lovely country and the people are so friendly. It's so beautiful there.
 
那是個(gè)非常漂亮的地方。我去過(guò)那里很多次。我想回去。一定要回去。那真是一個(gè)可愛(ài)的國(guó)家，那里的人們都非常友好。那里真的非常美麗。
