Next, the translation of the dragon "Smaug" in the same chapter stumped her.
It’s not that difficult.
It was under this word that her and Mr. Zhang's abilities instantly improved.
She planned to translate Smaug into smog, which means smoke, a fire-breathing dragon and smoke, which generally fit together.
but--
Mr. Zhang disagreed.
Not only does she look down on the dragon with this translation, but she also looks down on the author who dares to adapt the runes!
"I'm going to translate it to Smaug."
Mr. Zhang told Xiao Xue that the word originated from the past tense of the Old German smugan, which means to squeeze in from a hole, and it is easily associated with words such as darkness (murk) and smoke (smoke). In this way, this name
Not only does it make the appearance of the dragon appear on the page when people hear it, but it also avoids a name that is too superficial and does not reflect the majesty of the dragon.
"this--
Xiaoxue was convinced.
She promised to send the sample manuscript early tomorrow.
"Right!"
Mr. Zhang asked Xiao Xue to say something to Susan by the way, "You are too young and have no experience. You have to learn more from the teacher."
Xiao Xue agreed.
After the teacher hung up the phone, she called Susan.
When Susan received this call, she was completely confused.
what's the situation!
It hadn't even been a night, but Xiao Xue was so stunned that she asked Mr. Zhang to leave his work? Although this was the result she wanted most, she felt like her dream came true without doing anything.
, always made her feel uneasy about happiness, so much so that when she slept, she dreamed that she had won the International Book Award. When she stood on the stage to receive the award, the attendees stood and applauded...
Jiangyang's life became regular.
Morning.
After he gave it a try, he tied the thing into a knot, gave it to thousands of descendants, and threw it into the trash can. Then, he kissed Li Qingning, put on his clothes and shoes, closed the door, put on his headphones, and got in the elevator.
Floor, with the good morning greeting from the beautiful housekeeper in the lobby, I said hello and went out for a run.
"...Breaking up should be decent, no one should say sorry, why should we owe anything..."
Li Qingning closed his eyes in a daze and listened to the song.
After hearing the sound of closing the door, the music faded away. She mourned the song in her heart, turned over and went back to sleep.
Jiang Yang was running in the community.
The greening in the community is very good, almost like a small park, but not very big.
He ran around the neighborhood a few more times.
Then--
Before he was tired from running, Jiang Yang stopped because he found something interesting. There was a beautiful drainage ditch on the lawn path. It had ups and downs, was smooth and bright, and was cleaned very clean.
There are no fallen leaves or anything.
The key is--
There are few people here and it's quite quiet.
Isn’t this an excellent four-wheel drive track?!
If you don’t take the four-wheel drive out for a couple of laps, you’ll be sorry for the car you bought!
Jiang Yang walked back quickly. After greeting the property staff in the lobby, he got on the elevator and went home, taking out the four-wheel drive he bought.
Li Qingning has already gotten up.
She was washing up. When she heard the noise, she walked out of the bathroom with a toothbrush and asked, "What are you doing again?"
Jiang Yang: "I'll go run a few laps and come back."
then--
Li Qingning heard the electric guitar soaring high, followed closely by the intensive drumbeats, and the car started, "Catch the little tiger! You are really a Buddha who loves driving", followed by "Take your mother to fly, and a ship from outside will kick your ass out" -
—
Jiang Yang was so excited that Li Qingning didn't stop him.
She sighed at the boundless vitality in her body. She walked back, rinsed her mouth and face. After doing some simple skin care, she changed out of her pajamas and into a loose thin sweater. She took a rubber band to tie up her hair and put on headphones.
,play music.
a--
She sampled sounds from daily life, added whistles and drums, and organically arranged them according to her own feelings to create a very rhythmic, cheerful melody that was suitable for film and television editing and was played from the headphones.
As she listened, she became happy while making breakfast in the kitchen.
especially--
When the rhythm of high-heeled shoes and drum beats suddenly stopped with the sound of the door slamming, Jiang Yang said "sister" lightly, followed by a series of rhythmic gunshots, as if the sister was a female killer rescuing people, and the knives in her hands changed.
Be handsome.
Extremely fun!
Jiang Yang felt that this drainage ditch was simply made for four-wheel drive vehicles!
The only problem is that occasionally people pass by the track outside the lawn, and most of them are running for fitness.
At this time, Jiang Yang could only pretend as if nothing had happened, as if he was taking a walk, and then continue playing with the car after the person had gone away.
He thought that others wouldn't see it.
However--
A little fat man passed by and exclaimed: "Wow, a four-wheel drive."
He then stopped running and walked towards Jiang Yang, "This ditch is so fun to run on."
This little fat man was a familiar person and a talkative one. He talked about Jiang Yang's car in succession, how it ran, which car was faster, etc. Before Jiang Yang could reply, he straightened up and said, "My family
There is also a car. You wait for me and we will see who is faster."
then--
He ran away in a flash.
Don't say it yet.
Although this little fat guy seemed to be walking when he was running, he was running pretty fast when he went back to pick up the four-wheel drive.
only--
He was just reminiscing about his childhood, and he seemed quite social to others.
If you really want to play with this little fat guy in the car later, then you can't sell the villa.
Can--
The little fat man has disappeared.
Can you leave or not?
Jiang Yang thought about it and hesitated again and again, but still didn't leave.
He figured it out. When there was a child playing next to him, others thought he was taking the child to play, and never thought that he wanted to play.
soon.
The little fat man is here.
He took his own chariot and did not forget to show off to Jiang Yang: "This is my championship chariot!"
Of course not a real racing champion.
His four-wheel-drive vehicle is a peripheral from a racing animation.
As for the two cars in Jiang Yang’s hands——
It's not the same brand as Little Fatty's car, so it probably doesn't have much of a story.
but--
This does not prevent Jiang Yang from adding a story to it.
He raised the white four-wheel drive in his left hand and said, "What do you think this is? My car is the chariot of the Akina mountain chariot god."
"Akina Mountain Riding God?"
The little fat guy has never heard of it, but the name of the car god is obviously much louder than the championship car.
"right."
Jiang Yang told him that the Qiu Mingshan Car God's family ran a tofu shop. When he didn't have a driver's license, the Car God started delivering tofu. At first, he ran a lap of Qiu Mingshan, which has many twists and turns, for one and a half hours, and later every half an hour.
back and forth.
The little fat man heard this: "Awesome."
The car god who delivers tofu is very interesting when you think about it.
"This is nothing—"
Jiang Yang told him that one time, the car god was in a hurry to go home and sleep, so he drove and scattered the tofu. His father came up with an idea and put a paper cup full of water in the car. If it spilled, he would not let it back. "Just now
It was two hours at first, then one and a half hours, and after more than a month, it was back and forth again for half an hour."
"Wow."
The little fat man is now looking at Jiang Yang's car, fascinated by this story.
This training method, at first glance, looks like a training method for cultivating a racing master, and Qiu Mingshan’s racing master definitely lives up to his reputation.
but--
Whether it works or not will have to be seen by his subordinates, so the little fat man asked Jiang Yang to compare.
The two had just put the car down.
Jiang Yang: "I'll count to three and let go."
The little fat man agreed.
result--
As soon as Jiang Yang counted to "two", someone interrupted them: "Du Ziteng! What are you doing if you're not running!"
Jiang Yang looked up and saw a woman running towards him angrily.
Oh my god!
When parents come to visit, it seems more embarrassing than playing alone.
