 [English]玩并不都是PLAY |
玩并不都是PLAY
看到PLAY，想到了PLAY WITH，汉语里又常说“跟谁玩”，因此不得不再次提醒一下自己，玩并不都是PLAY。 用于儿童可以说Children play with each other/together, 可换了adults就不行了。成年人可以 play cards, play football, play golf 或其他 games，也可以 play with their children, 但成年人之间却不能轻易用 play with. 有个例子：一天，一个同学造句说：Both my parents were away on a business trip. I was left alone at home, so I could only play with myself. 显然他想表达“没人在家，只有自己跟自己玩。”的意思，可是美国教员听了表情很尴尬，又不便多解释，只是说 native speakers 会把 play with oneself 理解为 masturbate, 并把该字写在黑板上让学生自己去查。由此可见用 play with 时务必要小心。
汉语里常说：
1.“跟谁出去玩” Last Sunday she went out and played with him.（错）上周日她跟他出去玩。 可以说 She went out with him last Sunday and they enjoyed themselves. 或。。。they had a good/wonderful/marvelous time.
2. “来我家里玩。”
Would you like to come to my house and play this weekend? （错）这个周末你愿意来我家玩吗？ 可以说 Would you like to spend this weekend with my family/in my house?
3．“在/到。。。玩”
若要表达“我们在北戴河玩了几天”，可以说 We spent a few days enjoying ourselves in Beidaihe. 或者是 We spent a few days in Beidaihe and we had fun there. 总之，要表达“玩”轻易不要直译成 play。
