Understatement, and passive aggressive communication.

Where we can call someone a complete turnip, and they'll thank us for it.

在這裡，我們可以罵一個人是徹頭徹尾的笨蛋，而他們會為此感謝我們。

Today we're diving into British ways of telling someone they're a bit dim, without being rude, or at least not obviously rude.

今天，我們將深入探討英國人如何在不失禮或至少不明顯失禮的情況下，告訴別人他們有點昏庸。

They have no idea what they're doing, but at least they gave it a go.

他們根本不知道自己在做什麼，但至少他們試過了。

Bonus points if you touch your head and smile while saying it.

如果你邊說邊摸頭微笑，還會得到加分。

That's the British equivalent of patting someone on the head and saying, you absolute cabbage.

這就相當於英國人拍著某人的腦袋說，你絕對是個大白菜。

They mean well is the British way of saying, they're a lovely soul, but I wouldn't trust them to butter toast without supervision.

用英國人的話說，他們是好意，他們是可愛的靈魂，但我不放心他們在沒有監督的情況下給吐司塗黃油。

Number three, not the sharpest tool in the shed.

第三，不是棚子裡最鋒利的工具。

This one's practically Shakespearean in comparison.

相比之下，這個簡直就是莎士比亞的作品。

Oh yes, lovely chap, just not the sharpest tool in the shed.

哦，是的，可愛的小夥子，只是不是棚子裡最鋒利的工具。

他還差幾個三明治就可以去野餐了。

But he brings crisps, so we let him stay.

但他帶了薯片，所以我們就讓他留下了。

Number four, there's a lot going on up there.

Interpretation one, their mind is a whirlwind of genius.

詮釋一，他們的頭腦是天才的旋風。

Interpretation two, and the more likely, their brain is like a browser with 47 tabs open and nothing is loading.

解釋二，更有可能的是，他們的大腦就像一個打開了 47 個標籤的瀏覽器，什麼都加載不了。

Number five, they've got their own way of doing things.

第五，他們有自己的做事方式。

啊，這就是英國外交的最高境界。

They've got their own way of doing things equals, they're doing it wrong, but I'm too polite to stop them.

他們有自己的做法，他們的做法是錯誤的，但我太客氣了，無法阻止他們。

No details, no follow up, just a statement that leaves everyone else quietly nodding.

沒有細節，沒有後續，只是一句話，讓其他人都默默點頭。

第七，無論如何，我們都愛他們。

They've put their trousers on backwards and set the kettle on fire.

他們把褲子穿反了，把水壺燒著了。

They are pure chaos in human form, but they're our chaos.

他們是人類形態的純粹混沌，但他們也是我們的混沌。

Sometimes you don't need words, just a raised eyebrow, a side glance, a sigh that says, I am physically present, but spiritually absent because of your choices.

有時候，你不需要言語，只需要一個揚眉、一個側目、一聲嘆息，告訴你：我身體上在場，但精神上卻因為你的選擇而缺席。

And there you have it, the top British ways to tell someone they're not exactly Einstein, all without being rude to their face.

這就是告訴別人他們並不完全是愛因斯坦的英國頂級方法，所有這些方法都不會當面無禮。

Try one next time your friend asks whether the sun goes at night, or wonders if a fish gets thirsty.

下次，當你的朋友問你太陽是否會在夜裡升起，或者想知道魚是否會口渴時，不妨試一試。

Don't forget to like, subscribe, and share this with the one mate who means well.

別忘了點贊、訂閱，並把這篇文章分享給有心人。

And remember, all else fails, just say, well, aren't you special?

記住，如果其他方法都不奏效，就說 "好吧，你是不是很特別？
