躲猫猫”英语怎么说?
After last year’s getting some soy sauce and doing push-ups, Web users in China have found a new catchphrase for 2009: playing hidden cat, or what the English-speaking world calls hide and seek. (In Chinese, playing hidden cat is 躲猫猫, pronounced duo maomao.) 继去年风靡一时的打酱油和俯卧撑之后,步入2009年的中国网民又发现了新的流行词躲猫猫。 The story behind this new phrase comes from Jinning in southwest China’s Yunnan province, where a 24-year-old prisoner died from a severe brain injury four days after being sent to the hospital. Local police said the brain injury occurred when the prisoner bumped into a wall after being kicked by another prisoner while playing hidden cat. (Report in Chinese.) 这个新词背后的故事来自于中国云南省晋宁县;当地一位24岁的犯人脑部严重受伤,入院四天后死亡。当地警方给出的解释是,这位犯人在与狱友玩躲猫猫游戏时,遭到狱友踢打并不小心撞到墙壁,才导致脑部受伤。 Common sense makes it hard for the public to accept that a healthy young man died from playing a game…A trust-worthy third party must step in and dig out the truth for the public, reads one online commentary. 一条网上评论写道,常识让公众很难接受一个健康的年轻人会死于玩游戏,必须有令人信服的第三方介入调查,为公众挖出真相。
