先看看这个场景说了什么
对话 1
That cat has been staring at us for five minutes. Do you reckon cats have accents?
那只猫盯着我们看了五分钟了。你觉得猫会有口音吗?
中文提示
Maybe they do. If an Indian cat met a New Zealand cat, maybe they'd need a moment to adjust.
说不定有。印度的猫和新西兰的猫见面,会不会也需要适应一下?
对话 2
Maybe the meow changes, but the tail language seems pretty universal: tail up means friendly, tail puffed means trouble.
也许喵叫声会变,但尾巴语言好像挺通用:尾巴竖起来表示友好,尾巴炸开就有麻烦了。
中文提示
I believe that. I don't always understand the sound, but if the tail puffs up, I step back.
这个我信。我不太懂叫声,但如果看到尾巴炸开,我肯定会退后。
对话 3
Breeds make a difference too. Some are chatty, some act like you are lucky to share their house.
品种也会有影响。有些猫很爱叫,有些猫表现得像是你能住进它家已经很幸运了。
中文提示
That's very real. My friend's cat has landlord energy. Even being near you feels like it's doing you a favor.
太真实了。我朋友的猫就是有那种房东气质,愿意靠近你已经算给面子了。
