===================================================
後言:MJ的歌詞一樣出現很多俚語,
例如Jew Me, 很多人翻譯做"如同猶太人的我" , 但我查到一個很特別的解釋, Jew 本身有 欺騙的意思,也有殺價的意思 , 我個人是覺得以殺價的意思做衍生, 所以將這句話意做 貶低我
還有另一句 Kike Me , Kike本身也是有猶太人的意思,但它也可以衍生成輕蔑,不過我是按照前段則翻譯成打擊,所以跟原意不同
另外則是回頭看 Skin head , 原意是光頭黨,據說有種族歧視意味存在. dog food 直譯是狗食 , 但如果做衍生來看, 翻譯做一文不值
Don't you wrong or right me , 直接翻譯為 你無法錯或對我 (這三毀?) ,我個人是從前後意思推敲,將它翻譯成 你無法對我指指點點, 這句話本身會讓我感覺有種"評論他人是非對錯"的感覺,所以才這樣翻譯
以上!
