프렌즈 시즌1: 1화 영어표현 drift apart, take abuse, fixate on, get it together

출처 IMDb

 

영어공부 하시나요? 저도 그렇습니다. 시트콤 <프렌즈>를 10회 시청을 목표로 9회 차 정주행 중입니다. 가장 먼저 무자막, 그다음엔 영어 자막, 그리고 영어 자막과 한국어 자막을 켜고 보다가, 쉐도잉 하면서 어휘와 이디엄을 찾고 있습니다. 구동사도 추가했지요. 처음에는 10회 차까지 반복하게 되면 무척 질릴 것이라고 생각했습니다. 분명 그런 시간이 있었지만, 이제는 정이 들어서 또 봐도 재밌고, 여전히 새롭게 보이는 부분이 있고, 시즌10이 끝나면 아쉽기도 합니다. 작별인사 하면서 울기도 몇 번 울었습니다. 이처럼 <프렌즈>와 코드가 어느 정도 맞고, 꼭 반복해서 봐야겠다는 의지가 충만합니다. 서론은 줄이고, 공부하며 알게 된 어휘나 이디엄을 한 회당 3개 정도 공유합니다. :)

Scene 1 

(...웨딩들스를 입고 커피 하우스에 앉아 친구들에게 무슨 일이 있던건지 설명하는 레이첼)

Rachel: I realized...
I realized that I was more turned on
by this gravy boat than by Barry.
And then I got really freaked out,
and that's when it hit me,
how much Barry looks like Mr. Potato Head.
You know, I mean,
I always knew he looked familiar, but...
Anyway, I just had to get out of there,
and I started wondering,
"Why am I doing this,
and who am I doing this for?"
So anyway, I just didn't know where to go,
and I know that
you and I have kind of drifted apart,
but you're the only person
I knew who lived here in the city.

Monica: Who wasn't invited to the wedding?

Rachel:  Oh, I was kind of hoping
that wouldn't be an issue.

(...레이첼과 단 둘이 앉아 쿠키를 나눠먹으며 자신이 때때로 데이트 신청을 해도 되겠는지 묻는 로스)

Ross: Listen... Do you think.
And try not to let
my intense vulnerability
become any kind of a factor here.
But do you think it would be okay
if I asked you out sometime, maybe?

Rachel: Yeah.
Maybe.

Okay. Maybe I will.

Why does everyone keep fixating on that? (로스)
*fixate on sth: 집착하다. High achievers sometimes fixate on their own flaws.
Even if I could get it together enough to, you know, to ask a woman out, who am I going to ask? (로스)
*get it together: to make a decision or take positive action in your life. 정신차리고 살다
"What if I don't want to be a shoe? What if I want to be a purse? You know? Or hat?" (레이첼)
What if it rains tomorrow? (영어회화 100)
