第10课：The baby is cute 婴儿很可爱
选自第2季第6集6:09-7:18
CHANDLER: You know, I don't think we brought enough stuff. Did you forget to pack
the baby's anvil?
诶我觉得好像我们还没带够东西，你是不是忘带铁砧了？
【在此不是真的在说‘没带够东西’，而是Chandler对Joey的一种嘲讽，真实表达的是带个孩子就不容易了，还带那么多东西（观看视频可看出带的东西特别多），视频字幕翻译‘the baby’s anvil’是孩子止痛药，但是孩子需要什么止痛药呢？很明显翻译是不对的，这里的anvil指的是打铁用的很重的铁砧，嘲讽Joey带的东西太多。】
JOEY: It's gonna be worth it. It's a known fact that women love babies, all right?
Women love guys who love babies. It's that whole sensitive thing. Quick, aim him at that pack o' babes over there. Maybe one of them will break away. No, no wait, forget them, we got one, hard left. All right, gimme the baby.
我告诉你，这绝对值得，大家都知道女人最爱宝宝了，女人爱喜欢宝宝的男人，这是感性的问题，懂了吗?快，把他对准那边那些宝贝说不定待会儿有一个会过来。不，她们就算了，正左方来了一个，来，宝宝给我。
【It’s gonna be worth it 这句话就验证了上面第一句确实是Chandler在嘲讽Joey，Joey这里给自己辩护说‘这些都是值得的’。】
【这段表达的是Joey想借用孩子作为诱饵来搭讪女性，这才是他想帮Ross照顾孩子的目的。】
