Shrek 2 怪物史莱克2（精讲之五）

Gingy: Yup. He croaked¹.

Queen: Harold?

Fiona: Dad?

King: I'd hoped you'd never see me like this.

Donkey: And he gave you a hard time.

Shrek: Donkey!

King: No, no, he's right. I'm sorry, to both of you. I only wanted what was best for Fiona. But I can see now she already has it. Shrek, Fiona... Will you accept an old frog's apologies... and my blessing²?

Queen: Harold?

King: I'm sorry, Lillian. I just wish I could be the man you deserve.

Queen: You're more that man today than you ever were... warts³ and all.

Puss: Boss! The Happily Ever After Potion!

Shrek: Midnight! Fiona. Is this what you want? To be this way forever?

Fiona: What?

Shrek: Because if you kiss me now... we can stay like this.

Fiona: You'd do that? For me?

Shrek: Yes.

Fiona: I want what any princess wants. To live happily ever after... with the ogre I married.

Puss: Whatever happens, I must not cry! You cannot make me cry!

Donkey: No. No, no. Aaah! Ow. Oh, no.

Shrek: Hey. You still look like a noble steed to me.

Fiona: Now, where were we?

Shrek: Oh. I remember.

Puss: Hey! Isn't we supposed to be having a fiesta?

妙词佳句，活学活用

1. yup=yes
非常口语的用法。其实它是从yes转变而来的，只不过是在非常随意或说话速度比较快的情况下我们所得到的变体，就好像want to=wanna是一样的。而除此之外，在说no的时候，我们也会习惯说成是nope！

2．croak
有两种用法：
A：呱呱的叫，如：The frog croaks⁴.
B: 俚语用法，指……被杀了就可以说成是：Somebody croaked。

3．warts and all
意思是"尽管有各种缺点和瑕疵"。而在这里需要注意的是，习惯上warts and all 是放在句子最后面的。比如："尽管你有很多缺点，我们还是很喜欢你。"就可译为：We still like you for what you are, warts and all.
