  四個月前我來的,然後在某個地方上班呢。

  Todd: OK, and what do you do in Japan?

  很普通,就是個軟體工程師。

  二

  Todd: Now, Christian, you're English is amazing.Perfect actually.

  Christian,你英語說的真好,簡直太棒了。

  Christian: Thank you.

  謝謝。

  Todd: And many people from Norway have excellent English. What is the secret about Norway?

  很多來自挪威的人英語都很棒。到底是有什麼祕訣呢?

  Christian: I don't know. I actually heard that before that I meet a lot of people and theysay,"Oh, you're from Norway.

  我不知道。只是之前,我碰到很多人的時候他們都會說,“哦,你來自挪威。”

  Norwegian people speak such good English. Why is that?"

  挪威人能說得一口流利的英文。這是為什麼呢?

  Personally I think it's because we get a lot of exposure to English, through TV, music, media,everything, and we don't dub movies and TV programs like they do in many other countries.

  我個人覺得是因為我們生長在英語的大環境下,電視,音樂,媒體,一切的一切都是英文的,而且不同於其他國家,電影以及電視節目都是沒有配音的。

  We get subtitles. And the same with music. English music is very, very popular.

  我們有字幕。音樂也是一樣的。英文歌也是非常流行的。

  Probably more popular that Norwegian music, and I guess as well the education systemprovides us with really good, you know, teaching so, I mean all those combined together, youknow, creates, how to say.

  也許更出名的是挪威樂曲,而且我想校方也提供了相當棒的音樂課,所以我的意思是,所有的這些加起來就造就了我們。恩怎麼說呢,你知道的。

  Todd: Super speakers!

  一流的演說家!

  Christian: I don't know super speakers. It's a good combination, I guess in term of learningthe language, so, you know, and a lot of Norwegians travel as well and they have time topractice as well, which is important if you want to speak English well.

  我不知道什麼一流演說家。但這是個很好的融合,我想,單是從學語言方面考慮,很多挪威人出去旅遊,同時會有更多的時間說英語,練習英語。如果你想學好英語這一點是很重要的。

  Todd: Sure, well, how difficult is it to learn Norwegian?

  當然,那學習挪威語會有多難呢?

  Christian: That is probably more difficult that English, I'd say, but it's interesting I have aprivate Japanese student at the moment and he went to Norway on exchange from hisuniversity here in Japan

  我不得不說那可能會比英語更難,但有趣的是我現在有個日本學生,他從他學校來挪威做交換生。

  and he didn't speak a word of Norwegian before he went but he spent the year there, and henow can have a decent conversation with me in Norwegian.

  而且他來之前不會說一句挪威語但他在這兒呆了幾年,現在跟很熟練地跟我用挪威語對話了。

  That's three years ago since he went there, but still he speaks pretty well.

  他來這兒才三年,但挪威語仍然講得很好。

  三

  Todd: Alexandra, you worked at an airport before.You said you worked in Aviation.

  Alexandra, 你之前在機場工作。你說你是做航空業的。

  Alexandra: Yes, my previous job was write contracts for an aviation company and we boughtand sold airplanes and aircraft engines, so we did a lot of marketing and leasing and speakingto people from different countries, and airlines wanting to buy equipment, so a lot ofnegotiations.

  是的,我之前的工作是在一家航空公司籤合同,我們公司買賣飛機以及飛機引擎。所以我們公司做營銷,租賃還與來自不同國家的人進行交談,而且航空公司想要買裝置,所以還會有很多談判。

  Todd: Can you explain what leasing is?

  你能解釋一下什麼是租賃嗎?

  Alexandra: Leasing is when our company owns a piece of equipment, either an airplane or anengine and a customer has a need, for example, if their airplane has to do some maintenance,and they need a replacement, then we will let them use our airplane for a certain amount ofmonths, like you rent a car, same thing, same idea.

  租賃就是我們公司會有很多裝置,當顧客需要一架飛機,或者一個引擎的時候,如果他們的飛機需要維護,或者說是需要更換,我們將會讓他們先用我們飛機幾個月,跟你租輛車是一樣的,相同的事情相同的道理。

  Todd: Oh, wow. And you lease not only the plane but engines as well?

  哦,哇。那你的租賃中不僅是租飛機還租引擎?

  Alexandra: Sometimes you have an airplane that's delayed at the airport because of somereason and they need to swap an engine out, or whatever.

  有時候如果你的航班在機場因為某些原因晚點了,他們就需要交換引擎或者是其他的一些事情。

  Todd: Right before the plane takes off, they sometimes switch engines?

  就在飛機起飛的時候,他們總是會換引擎?

  Alexandra: They'll take the passengers off and put them on another plane cause it takes a lotlonger than the 10 or 15 minute turnaround, but, you will have, it's more an emergency type ofsituation, so they'll take the engine off, and it might be and overnight deal so we go ahead andfurnish a replacement engine until they can move that plane back to where it belongs or havethe engine repaired.

  他們會讓乘客先下飛機然後去搭乘另一班。換引擎的時候會多於10或15分鐘,但更多時候還會突發緊急狀況,所以他們會關掉引擎。之後就可能會有一場連夜交易,我們要去給他們配備一個替代品直到他們能將飛機歸回原位或者是修好引擎。

  Todd: So can you lease a pilot?

  那你能租用飛行員嗎?

  Alexandra: You can, yes, you can lease a crew. Yes! It's called a wet lease, and we used to dodry leases meaning we only provided the equipment but a wet lease includes a full crew that willfly the airplane, flight attendants, etc.

  可以,是的,你可以租借機組成員。那叫是租賃。我們過去常常做幹租賃,那意味著我們只提供裝置而溼租賃包括完整的機組以及飛機乘務員等等。
