文化差異經(jīng)常會(huì)造成不同的人之間對(duì)于同一件事情的理解偏差,最近一位巴基斯坦的讀者寫(xiě)出了他認(rèn)為中國(guó)女生愛(ài)對(duì)外國(guó)男友抱怨的十大事項(xiàng),不知道看完之后大家會(huì)有什么感想。出國(guó)留學(xué)網(wǎng)(www.liuxue86.com)英語(yǔ)頻道小編認(rèn)為還是非常符合的,但是跟外國(guó)男友相處時(shí)還是多多了解他們的文化比較好!
外國(guó)看中國(guó):中國(guó)女友十大抱怨
Top 10 complaints of Chinese girlfriends
Chinese women who are dating non-Chinese guys often express various issues which displease them – and the issues are mostly due to cultural differences and a lack of understanding. One of our forum readers from Pakistan sent us a list of what he considers the ten most common complaints of Chinese girlfriends.
中國(guó)女人同外籍男友交往時(shí)經(jīng)常會(huì)抱怨許多她們憤怒的事情,而這些事情主要是因文化差異和缺少了解所造成的?!吨袊?guó)日?qǐng)?bào)》論壇的一位巴基斯坦讀者例舉了一張清單,講出了他認(rèn)為的中國(guó)女友經(jīng)常會(huì)抱怨的10大事項(xiàng)。
1. You don't carry my handbag!
Most foreign boyfriends believe that carrying a handbag of a girlfriend is basically the opposite of manliness. But this is a very common demand of Chinese girlfriends. Chinese girls usually carry useless and unnecessary stuff in their bags and the reason is only because they want to have a bag so that their boyfriend will carry it for them. And foreign boyfriends don't like to carry their handbag.
1.你不幫我拎包!
大部分外籍男友基本認(rèn)為幫女友拎包缺乏男子氣概。但這卻是中國(guó)女友最常見(jiàn)的要求。中國(guó)女友總是放一些沒(méi)有用的,不需要的物品在包里,只是想要她們的男友幫他們拎著。而外籍男友外出都不愛(ài)帶包。
2. You don't text or call me three times a day!
Chinese girlfriends usually demand that you stay in contact with them during the day and show that you care for them by calling or sending them text messages at least two or three times a day. This will not change - so you need to adopt this habit if you wish to have a long-term relationship.
2.你不時(shí)常聯(lián)系我!
中國(guó)女友總要求你每天和她們保持聯(lián)系,每天打兩三次電話或發(fā)短信表達(dá)你對(duì)她們的關(guān)心。這一點(diǎn)是不會(huì)改變的。所以要是你想要同她們長(zhǎng)久交往,你需要適應(yīng)這一點(diǎn)。
3. You don't meet me often!
If you don't visit or meet your girlfriend often she will call you selfish and this is a word Chinese girls use if you don't do something they want. They will not miss any chance to call you selfish. However, for foreigners this word does not seem so strong and they consider it quite normal to be called selfish - but for Chinese this is not the case.
3.你不經(jīng)常見(jiàn)我!
要是你不時(shí)常見(jiàn)你的女友,她會(huì)認(rèn)為你自私。如果你沒(méi)有做中國(guó)女孩想讓你做的事情,她們就會(huì)認(rèn)為你自私。她們不會(huì)錯(cuò)過(guò)任何指責(zé)你自私的機(jī)會(huì)。然而,對(duì)于外國(guó)人而言,自私這詞似乎并沒(méi)有那么嚴(yán)重,他們認(rèn)為被稱(chēng)作自私是很正常的。但是對(duì)于中國(guó)人而言就不是這樣子了。
4. Give less time to your friends!
Sometimes, Chinese girls will complain that they don't like your friends, but this is not exactly true: They just want the guy to spend less time with his friends and more with them. They want you to spend more time with your girlfriend instead of hanging out and meeting your friends.
4.少和你朋友待在一起!
有時(shí),中國(guó)女友會(huì)抱怨說(shuō)她們不喜歡你的朋友,但是并非完全如此:她們只是想你少和朋友待在一起,多和她在一起。她們想要更多的二人世界,而不是外出會(huì)見(jiàn)朋友。
5. Why don't you take me to the bar?
She will often complain that you don't take her when you go out to a bar and she will accuse you of not taking her because of various reasons. She will tell you that you don't like her attitude in the club as she makes you stay by her side the whole time.
5.為什么不帶我去酒吧?
你去酒吧時(shí),她經(jīng)常會(huì)抱怨你不帶她一起,她會(huì)因各種原因指責(zé)你不帶她同往。她會(huì)說(shuō)你不喜歡她在酒吧的態(tài)度,因?yàn)樗阋恢贝谒磉叀?BR> 6. No fashion sense
She wants you to dress like she wants you to dress and she wants you to look like she wants you to look. Chinese dress sense is very different to other countries and it's quite difficult to follow, so get ready to face such complaints sooner or later.
6.沒(méi)有時(shí)尚感
她想要你按照她的想法著裝裝扮。中國(guó)的穿衣品味同其他國(guó)家的截然不同,很難遵循,所以做好早晚面對(duì)這類(lèi)抱怨的準(zhǔn)備吧。
7. You don't know Chinese culture.
You will hear this sentence very often from your Chinese girlfriend - that you should learn more about Chinese culture and start following it. She will always demand that you follow her culture and not so much your own culture.
7.你不了解中國(guó)文化
你的中國(guó)女友經(jīng)常會(huì)說(shuō)你要多學(xué)習(xí)中國(guó)文化。她總是要求你學(xué)習(xí)她的文化,卻不怎么學(xué)習(xí)你的文化。
8. Eat more!
It sounds weird but it's true: A Chinese girlfriend will suggest that you eat more and "get healthier". The more you eat the healthier you will be - this is a Chinese saying and they truly follow it and try it on their boyfriends.
8.多吃點(diǎn)!
聽(tīng)起來(lái)很怪異但卻是事實(shí):中國(guó)女友會(huì)建議你多吃“更健康”。中國(guó)諺語(yǔ)一一吃得越多越健康。她們切實(shí)地遵循了,并且讓她們的男友也這樣做。
9.Eat less!
Sooner or later you will start eating more and another complaint you will get is that you eat so much. Your Chinese girlfriend will start saying that you should eat less and this will be good for your health. Suddenly, the above-mentioned Chinese saying and perception will change.
9.少吃點(diǎn)!
早晚你會(huì)開(kāi)始多吃,但你會(huì)聽(tīng)到另一個(gè)抱怨一一你吃太多了。你的中國(guó)女友會(huì)開(kāi)始說(shuō)你應(yīng)該少吃點(diǎn),這有益于你的健康。一下子,上面提到的中國(guó)諺語(yǔ)和看法都變了。
10. Shopping
Last but not least, Chinese girlfriends will complain to you that you do not take her shopping. Yes! She is right - take her shopping often, even window shopping. She wants to hang out with you. And sometimes she just wants you to spend your money on her. Soon after the shopping trip, she will say something like: I thought you are selfish but you are not.
10.購(gòu)物
最后,中國(guó)女友會(huì)抱怨你沒(méi)有帶她去購(gòu)物。是的!她是正確的。記得經(jīng)常帶她購(gòu)物,即便只是隔著窗戶(hù)看看。她想要和你閑逛。有時(shí)她想要你在她身上花些錢(qián)。購(gòu)物后不久,她就會(huì)說(shuō):“過(guò)去我認(rèn)為你自私,但現(xiàn)在你并非如此。”
看完之后不知道大家是什么感想呢?希望巴基斯坦這位讀者的想法能為廣大中國(guó)女性帶來(lái)一些思考,在學(xué)習(xí)英語(yǔ)的同時(shí)也能和男朋友相處更加和睦!
