Only you can make all this world seem right. Only you can make the darkness bright.
Only you, and you alone, can thrill me like you do, and fill my heart with love for only you.
Only you can make all this change in me, for it's true you are my destiny.
When you hold my hand, I understand the magic that you do. You're my dream come true, my one and only you.
唯有妳能使這世界變得美好;唯有妳能照亮黑暗。
1. darkness n. 黑暗, 不明
例: The house was in complete darkness due to a power failure.
(這房子因停電而一片漆黑。)
2. bright a. 光亮的; 聰明的
例: The garden is bright with sunshine.
(花園裏陽光普照。)
She is bright beyond her years.
(她的聰明超過她的年齡。)
3.Only you, and you alone, can thrill me like you do,...
只有妳能使我如此心動⋯⋯
a. thrill vt. 使感動
例: The scene thrilled the onlookers.
(這情景使旁觀者感動。)
*thrilling a. 令人震顫的; 令人激動的
例: After hearing this thrilling news, she burst out crying.
(聽到這令人震顫的消息後,她哭了出來。)
b. 上句中的like 為介系詞, 其後應接名詞或代名詞做其受詞, 其意為『像⋯⋯』。
例: He studies very hard like Peter.
(他像彼得一樣非常用功。)
若用as 造句, 因其為連接詞, 故後面要接主詞、動詞, 形成副詞子句。
例: He studies very hard as Peter does.
(他像彼得一樣非常用功。)
但現在口語中, 甚至在文章中, 常用like 當做連接詞, 取代as 的用法,唯正式英文, 仍用as 較妥。
例: As/Like I said, Peter can speak five different languages.
(正如我所言,彼得能說五種語言。)
故解說3 中的句子實應為:
Only you...can thrill me as you do.
4. fill A with B 用B 充滿A
例: He filled his brush with paint.
(他把刷子沾滿油漆。)
5. destiny n. 命運
destine vt. 使命中注定(常用於被動語態)
be destined to V 注定⋯⋯
例: He was destined never to meet her again.
(他命中注定再也見不到她。)
6. magic n. 魔法
例: The fairy's magic changed the two brothers into swans.
(仙人的魔法使那兩兄弟變成天鵝。)
7.You're my dream come true...
→ You're my dream that has come true...
妳是我夢想的實現⋯⋯。
*其中形容詞子句的that has (或which has) 由於經常使用, 故通常予以省略。
