Can you understand British humour? (Watch this and you will!) ft. Graham Norton

[@honka4ever]

我在看這類影片時常幻想有個當地人坐我旁邊一個個解釋笑點讓我理解！終於成真了！😂

[@JCH1992]

感謝妳那麼用心的製作這類型的影片，透過你的解說來了解英式幽默非常有趣！

[@jerryyang4567]

这个视频最让人惊讶的不是英国的幽默，而是你竟然能用中文把里面的东西如此流利的解释出来。

[@mountkailash6127]

根本解释不出来。 文化之间的隔离基本是不能沟通的。

[@WellWang-q3z]

@@mountkailash6127 畢竟幽默經過解釋以後，可能好笑的程度會有點降低 但我覺得的確有理解英式幽默的概念，或許以後接觸英式幽默可以更直覺吧?

[@jovin2243]

@@WellWang-q3z 我同意你所说的

[@askaliu2943]

真的 XD 我雖然完全能聽懂英文，瞭解他們的笑點，但要我用中文翻譯解釋出來我真的無法 XD

[@彩光我來了]

[@deanw6189]

这个解读好有意思，我在澳洲快8年了自认为看这些脱口秀都差不多能理解但听Susie讲了之后还是能学到新的知识，太有意思了。希望能定期出这个系列~

[@kiwa1117]

Wow 我很震驚聽到英國人從小被教導的觀念是自己是一個失敗者，這真的是非本國人不會知道的事情，謝謝你分享給我們!!

[@adamxu]

自信包容的人更容易自嘲，而自卑的人深怕别人说一点自己不好的话，哪怕是事实也不愿承认，一般会马上跳脚反驳、争论甚至动手打人。

[@談珈維]

的確讓我很驚訝，沒想到英國的教育及文化跟台灣很像，從小教我們，做人要謙虛，不要“自大（arrogant）“，很謝謝Susie.😮

[@gracechen7737]

I’ve always enjoyed watching the Graham Horton Show. It’s a very different style from the American talk shows. As a Chinese living in Canada for over fifteen years I don’t actually “deep” listen to English words anymore. This video is actually helpful in improving my English because the dialogues are translated sentence by sentence and explained in the cultural context. What a treat to see so many of my favourite British actors on the same couch!

[@談珈維]

Susie, 妳好。沒想到妳的中文這麽流利。英國的教育方式跟台灣很像，從小就學習謙虛（modesty)，不驕傲（pride)。這是一個很好的“優點（advantage）“，別人會喜歡謙虛的人，幸會，謝謝妳。😮

[@picardtseng]

I had a general course "British history and culture" during my bachelor, the tutor said "British humour is the true humor, you have to think to get the point". I pretty agree to that, getting puns is interesting. Background knowledge are required for some clever British jokes.

[@LoSir1202]

Your insight and ability to explicitly explain something so subtle and hard to get a grasp really impresses me. I recommend this to anyone wanting me know more than just the surface of British culture.

[@estherkong8761]

這個系列很好，請你有空一定繼續，可以了解很多英國的文化，幫助理解更多，謝謝🙏

[@lemongoose1210]

希望你能多做一些这种节目，了解真正的英国文化和习俗。谢谢！

Yes it’s so interesting I want to know more that very great 👍🏻👍🏻

Granham Norton真的是超級會帶氣氛的脫口秀主持人, 所以常常會讓來賓說出很多在其他脫口秀不會出現的奇妙對話：）

[@tristan19890227]

很有趣的主題～～ 感覺對於融入英國文化很有幫助💪💪

[@francesf4415]

這集很好看！我住英國二十年，最欣賞英國人的幽默感跟自嘲，老爺（英國人）每年冬天陪我回台，感受最深的就是台灣人真的沒有幽默感，也不懂！而且愛談「錢」跟吹噓， 有次跟一位大醫院的副院長一起用餐，那位醫師跟我們「炫耀」他跟太太剛喝完一瓶價值70000台幣的紅酒，以爲坐在身旁的老外會覺得「好棒」，殊不知他已經徹底的讓這位老外認為他「超沒水準」，我家老爺不相信他會是一個大醫院的副院長，更不相信他喝了那瓶酒😂😂😂

[@艺术人生]

thank you ever so much, Sue, for your interpretation of the English humour in this show. I think you are the first person doing this for Chinese speakers on KZbin. Great job! I love watching British comedies and have watched quite a few. But with Norton's talk show, I don't really get what they laugh at most of the time as I am Chinese and find it hard to follow and catch up with their talk, as well as grasp what they are insinuating because they don't have or give us enough context or background knowledge of that joke. Hope you do more this kind of videos for those who love British humour and are willing to know more about it.

[@ringo3183]

讲真，我觉得这幅画也太棒了。超级像本人。那种像就是一种幽默感，很有质感。我好希望自己会给自己画一幅这样的画

[@chialingchang2138]

謝謝妳。 好喜歡妳這些以talk show 和British sense of humor 為教材， 幾乎是不知道去拿裡學得到。 Brilliant ! 希望妳能繼續製作這些主體的教學。

[@cc9721]

我們覺得這樣的解說影片很棒，期待能有更多！

[@dogcat8888]

Susie, 你的解說非常有水準 可以令不少對英語有些了解，但又不完全明白英語幽默的人得到啟發，這其中就包括我。我想說，此類純英國本土的地道英式幽默並非只是學過英語但沒有英國本地生活經驗的人所能理解，其中一個主要原因是，不了解他們所談論的事情本身的文化現實背景。也即如，外國人初步學了中文後可以了解筷子，月餅，但不一定可以聽明白討論一大堆有關筷子和月餅的背景歷史等等。Susie, your sentence-by-sentence explanation is quite helpful to let me understand more about the episode. Pessimistically speaking, unfortunately, this kind of British culture programme is not that easy for those who just learn English by "books" to understand. The only way, as I can just assume, to have more insight into the English humor is to live in UK and switch on TV all the time watching this kind of typical local culture programme. By the way, your mention about Ian McKellen reminds me of another famous gentleman John Vincent Hurt. Both are CBE. My favorite about John V. Hurt is " An English Man in New York". What a beautiful presentation of Sting's song.

👍今天是个好日子！我发现了这个频道🫶 ❤谢谢戴舒萱用心做这样的内容！这频道👍成功！

[@oneadd5012]

太喜欢这个视频了，帮我了解和理解了一些英国文化和幽默。尤其是看了之后更能体会到英式幽默的笑点。谢谢！希望能做成一个系列。其中一些您认为很平常的东西，在我看来可能都是理解不了的，这样一句一句的解读真的很有用，很有帮助，谢谢！

[@朱俊祥-q9c]

辛苦了！ 感謝用心地翻譯、解說；雖然我覺得這比較適合學英文/英式文化時所進入的脈絡，重點是用英語思考來拼湊、還原出幽默（風格/氛圍/調性），而非茶來伸手、飯來張口的中譯。 例如在字彙量足夠的前提下，習得片語用法的精妙時機，一步步地積累鋪陳出語感的根基。畢竟，欠缺體察的學習易流於囫圇吞棗。

[@raymond878]

囫圇吞棗 - not sure Susie understands such phrase. Not easy even for a Chinese.

[@sallyleo4014]

听姐姐讲英美文化差异的时候，想起了之前看Ricky Gervais被问到英式幽默和美式幽默的差异时说“In Britain, we love the underdog. We celebrate, laugh, and almost embrace failure”, “I feel that Americans are brought up to believe that they can be the next president of the United States. British are told ‘It won't be you, so don't bother '” 感觉确实是这样哦

[@auguschiang4318]

喜欢这个系列的节目，希望更多地带我们理解文化和幽默

[@sonichef_taiwan]

我在澳洲待了16年多，真的是到很後期在學英文的時候才聽懂英式幽默的。美式幽默很直接，像是在復仇者聯盟中當Thor說「Is that the best you can do?」語落一群奧創兵團湧出在眼前，Captain America 就說「You had to ask！」(lol) 豆豆先生(Mr Bean) 其實是我第一次接觸英式的幽默，但是，因為他沒有台詞而是用誇大的方式表演出來，所以，了解肢體語言的人，都可以理解。後來看了Keeping up appearances (虛飾外表)，有些肢體動作很好笑，可是台詞方面真的不太懂為什麼這句話說出來會好笑。後來就發現像Susie 在影片中解釋到的部份。英國的笑話和他們的punchlines 是要有和背景連結的。這也是為什麼英式幽默比較難理解，但是，任何幽默或笑話都是解釋之後就沒有那麼好笑了。在台灣看美國電影時，常常會發現自己會笑的點，在場同樣也在笑的人超級少（即使電影院滿場）…

Glad you liked it Thank you!

[@Benjamin3345]

我一直很想學習瞭解英式口音，也是Graham Norman Show 的忠實觀眾。您做的影片非常有幫助，但是，能不能在開始逐句解釋前，先讓我們聽一整段完整的對話(比如一分鐘的對話)，這樣我們可以先自己嘗試去理解，然後再聽您逐句解說，這樣幫助更大。非常感謝😉

[@TheBlvision]

最有趣的是，和Susie相反，反而山謬傑克森的美式口音我聽得特別清楚。 Punami的笑話好笑！ It didn't work, did it? "I'm a celebrity, get me out of here" 我認為笑點在於，語帶雙關阿！ 因為沒甚麼好講的，所以尷尬得我想趕緊烙跑！

[@Okura84]

謝謝妳！非常喜歡看妳拍的影片！ 節奏明快，語調又好。很喜歡！

[@ChongChenTong]

對，我最欽佩喜愛的英國文化正是你們能夠自嘲的自信。 我們華人的文化就是自卑得不懂得取笑自己。一點善意或無意的取笑，許多華人就會敏感得認為是辱華。這一點真的是不好的文化。 I happened to have watched a few episodes of The Graham Norton’s Show on KZbin, and the funniest is the one he interviewed Mr Bean Rowan Atkinson. Rowan Atkinson by himself was absolutely hilarious with words, without needing Graham to join in to the storytelling.

[@喬的英國留學日記]

其中一个幽默点的解释，我认为应该是，他指着那块石头说，你看它不灵了。这可能是之前把那块石头当作护身符，起保佑作用。或者只是为了这次的幽默，把那块石头说成是护身符了。谢谢你做的中英文化对比节目。

[@GloriaWang_Tian]

Olivia Coleman那个片段其实是两段采访，前面在说为扮演角色做什么准备工作，她开玩笑说自己没准备，另一个主演David做了准备，所以问David就好了。Feels silly doubling up我理解是Graham在接Olivia的这个梗，既然别人做了准备就没有必要傻乎乎地自己再做准备doubling up the work，应该不是重复问两个人同一个问题，因为David并不在现场。You dance a lot though其实是出现在宣传Olivia的新电影的时候，她说因为距离拍电影已经有一段时间了，她已经忘了自己的角色叫什么了，观众和主持人都笑了（记性再差也不可能把自己的角色都忘了吧）。这个时候Lena就调侃了一句，意思是：那你还记得你在这部电影里跳了很多舞吧；其实这个挺聪明的一个回答，幽默地接了话又给了Olivia一个台阶下的感觉。

[@lingquan4263]

前几天突然看了英语版的《虎口脱险》虽然能听懂说什么，但一点都不好笑！这让我突然发现配音的艺术真不是只是让你听的懂，而是把一种语言的笑点转换到另一种语音及文化的笑点，这真是一种艺术！

[@romee-elise]

6:03 Whoohoo！ Pounamu是毛利文化中的绿色的软玉，颜色浑厚，通常做成鱼钩，螺旋形状的蕨类图形， 可以做项链坠，耳环，以前也可以做成剑的形状拿在酋长的手里。Pounamu和华裔文化中喜欢玉质偏硬通透的审美有一点差距，当然这只是审美标准不同而已，都是美玉。非常喜欢Susie制作的这一类的影片，尤其是Susie解释采访中一些小的细节，对我很有帮助。 我相信很多观众和我有同样的问题，英语口语流利，但是在听力过程中，还是偶尔会有障碍。希望Susie多多制作此类视频。

[@xiaohanma2584]

I grew up in China, and having lived in America for plenty years, I think they are very careful about joking to the degree that they almost never joke sarcastically. Even when they do, they sometimes add "I'm just kidding" afterwards in case people took them seriously, which ruins the joke anyways. The cultural environment is not very tolerant to any possibility of offending someone. I once made a joke by "talking badly" about a very close friend of mine, and the whole room went silent. But on second thought, perhaps my English wasn't as fluent as I thought. I should try it on the Brits next time.
