情態副詞

Obviously the best way to divulge a secret

is to tell someone to not say anything about it.

很明顯地, 要洩漏一個祕密最好的方法就是

just because, you know, I'm into the TED thing.

秘密是: 我今年要使用投影片來做報告了

因為,你們知道的,我要做TED演講

And when you use these things you don't have to go like that.

而當你做這樣的事情的時候，你其實不必這樣做

好啦,我非常確定,就換到下一張吧!

這張不是我的投影片, 不過也還算OK啦

And maps are important devices for transferring information,

就像你看到的,這裡有非常多張地圖

especially if you have human cognitive ability.

而地圖是傳達訊息非常重要的方式

We can see that all formulas are really maps.

我們可見其實所有的公式都真的是地圖

而現在,我們人類為很多地方製作地圖

有些地方甚至我們連去都沒去過

Tranquilacalitis, [unclear]. My favorite is Frigoris.

What are these people thinking? Frigoris?

坦揆拉克緹雅斯。噢,我最喜歡的名字是"冷海"

What the Frigoris you doing? Names are important.

這些人們到底在想些什麼? 冷海?

Frigoris? This is the Moon. People could live there one day.

到底在搞什麼鬼? 名字是非常重要的!

I'll meet you at Frigoris. No. I don't think so.

冷海? 這裡是月球上耶, 我們很有可能某天就會住在那裏的

我等等跟你約在冷海見! 不,我才不要呢

There we see Mars, again with various names.

我們接著看到火星, 一樣的,上頭有很多不一樣的名字

這些都是國際天文連會所命名的

that sit around naming planetary objects.

他們其實就不過是一群人們坐在一邊

These are some of the names that they have chosen, ladies and gentlemen.

I'll go through a little of them. Bolotnitsa.

而上面這些是他們選出來的一些名字,大家注意聽了

That, of course, is the Slavic swamp mermaid.

我將要來唸唸其中的幾個. 波諾尼斯塔

這,其實是斯拉夫語中的濕地美人魚的意思

Now I think the whole concept of a mermaid

doesn't really blend into the swamp feel.

"Oh look! Mermaid come out of swamp. Oh boy!

"你看! 美人魚從沼澤中爬出來了,天啊! "

If that don't flow off the tongue, what does?

這念起來也太拗口了吧, 到底在搞什麼鬼

and they've got the word "fluctus" up there. That's wrong.

我的意思是, 當孩子們在學這個東西的時候

他們都只會念成樸朗克塔斯 這是錯的!

One dyslexic kid and he could be ruining his life.

對有閱讀障礙的小孩來說,這可能會毀掉他的生活的!

sounds like a kind of a Leonardo DiCaprio

聽起來有點像李奧納多狄卡皮歐

And one of my favorites is the Itoki Fluctus,

who is the Nicaraguan goddess of insects, stars, and planets.

而我喜歡的另一個名字則是, 伊托基 樸朗克緹絲

Now, if you're a goddess of stars and planets

這個字的意思是尼加拉瓜主管蟲類,星宿,和行星的女神

wouldn't you relegate insects to somebody else?

如果你是一個掌管行星和星球的女神

你會不會想要把這些蟲子丟給其他人呢

"No, no, really, I'm so busy with the stars.

Would you mind taking the insects? Thank you darling.

"呃,我忙這些星星的事就忙不過來了"

Oh take the spiders too. I know they're not insects, but I don't care.

你可不可以幫我照顧這些蟲子呢, 真是太感謝你了

Monkeys, chimps, just get rid of the hairy creatures."

噢,拜託也拿走那些蜘蛛吧,我知道他們不是蟲子,但誰管它

猴子啊,黑猩猩啊,你就把所有毛茸茸的東西全部帶走吧!!"

Now, we're going to be going to Mars one day. And when we do,

it's going to be unfair for the people that are living there

我們未來有一天將會登上火星 而如果我們這麼做了之後

to have to live with these ridiculous names.

其實對那些本來就住在火星上的人很不公平的阿

他們必須要接受這些愚蠢的名字

你也算是在一個十分高的地方了吧

Yeah, I'm at the Depressio, and I want to get over to Amazonis

是阿,我在迪皮西歐,而我等等要穿越阿瑪遜尼斯

and click the button and there's my directions.

所以我就把他加入了火星的地圖裡了

而按下這個鍵之後, 指示就會出現了

Niliacus Lacus, try to get the practice, slick-a-tick-a-bacus.

尼李阿庫斯 拉庫斯,練習一下就好了,跟著節奏

And of course there will be advertisements.

然後當然, 我們要從亞諾穿越圖特

This is from their rule book, the International Astronomical Union.

And you know they're international because

這些都是從國際天文協會的規則書裡頭出來的

而你知道他們之所以被稱為國際 是因為

他們在上頭也放上了法文的版本
