フレンズで学ぶ英会話

I just told my mom I'd cater a party for her.

親に仕事をもらったの。

How come?

何で？

Because I need the money. And I thought it would be a great way to get rid of that last little smidgen of self-respect.

金欠なの。粉々のプライドの最後の粉も消えた。

Come on, I think this is a good thing.

悪くとるなよ。

Well, I don't think Mom would have hired you if she didn't think you were good at what you do.

腕を認めなきゃ母さんは雇わない。

You don't have to stick up for her. She can't hear you.

また母さんの味方？

Hey, uh, Rach, funny story. I bumped into Joanna on the street yesterday.

昨日ジョアンナに偶然会ったよ。

My boss Joanna? Well, that must have been awkward.

私の上司に？気まずかった？

Well, no, actually, she, uh, asked me if I wanted to get a drink.

飲みに誘われたよ。

Uh, well, last time, I almost got fired. You must end it. You must end it now.

私をクビにする気？今すぐに別れて。

Oh, come on, it's not like this is an everyday occurrence for me.

久々だぞ。

I mean, usually I'm pretty much just in there by myself.

いつもは一人寂しく暮らしてる。

Let-let me ask you a question.

質問が。

Why did you hire me?

なぜ私を雇ったの？

Oh, well, Richard raved about the food at his party.

リチャードが腕をほめてた。

Let me ask you one question. Do your friends ever have a conversation and you just nod along even though you're not really sure what they're talking about?

1つお尋ねを。お友達との会話で、話が分からずただうなずいていた経験は？

That's weird.

変だわ。

What?

何が？

Your nails.

その付け爪。

Oh, I know. I never wear fake ones. I just did it so my mom wouldn't give me grief about me biting them.

爪をかむと母が怒るから付けたの。

Oh, no, I meant it's weird that you only have nine now.

違うわ、1つ足りない。

I'm not freaking out.

やっぱりね。

Why are you laughing?

なぜ笑うの？

It's nothing. It's just that now your father owes me $5.

父さんから5ドル取れる。

What? You bet I'd lose a nail?

賭けを？

Oh, no, don't be silly. I just bet that I'd need these.

これを用意してたの。

Frozen lasagnas?

冷凍ラザニア？

Wait, I wanna show you something.

待って、いい物が。

What is it?

何だい？

Just a little gag gift somebody gave me.

もらい物よ。

Put your hands together.

腕を。

You're not the boss of me.

僕の上司じゃない。

Yeah, you are.

どうぞ。

I'll be back in two minutes.

すぐ戻るわ。

You are, uh, you're gonna leave me like this?

このまま放置？

Knowing you're here, waiting for me, I think that's kind of exciting, don't you?

裸で待ってると思うと興奮する。

Okay, but if you don't come back soon, there's pretty much nothing I can do about it.

すぐ戻ってよ。手持ちぶさただ。

Okay, here's the situation. The keys to the cuffs are on the back of the door. Could you be a doll and grab them and scoot on over here and unlock me?

説明しよう。手錠のカギはドアの所だ。悪いが外してくれたまえ。

And on a totally separate subject, that is a lovely pantsuit.

話は変わるが、その服最高。

You promised you would break up with her.

別れると約束したわ。

I did break up with her. She just took it really, really well.

別れたさ。でも彼女がうまくて。

And the fact that you were jeopardizing my career never entered your mind?

私が危機だって分からないの？

It did enter my mind. But then something happened that made it shoot right out.

分かってるけどやり始めると忘れちゃう。

Oh, I'm such an idiot. I can't believe I actually thought she could change.

バカよね。母さんが私を認めるはずない。

Look, who cares what your mom thinks? So you pulled a Monica.

まだ親を気にするの？ドジカのままだわ。

Oh, good, I'm glad that's catching on.

早速の引用ね。

You get the whole set of encyclopedias for $1200. That works out to just 50 bucks a book.

事典がまるごと1セットでたったの1200ドルだ。1冊あたり50ドル。

Twelve hundred dollars? You think I have $1,200? I'm home in the middle of the day and I got patio furniture in my living room.

1200ドル？金あると思う？昼に家にいてボロ家具置いてる。

I guess there's a few things you don't get from book learnin'.

本で学べない常識だ。
