篇名: Broke, Baroque?
作者: Arthur 日期: 2019.02.25  天氣:  心情:


《 Broke, Baroque? 》

I have no money for the gas to make the van go because I'm broke.

我沒有錢加油,來讓車子開動,因我身無分文。

Broke (破產)的諧音很像 Baroque (巴洛克藝術)這個字,因此上面的英文可以讀成以下的諧音。

I have no Monet for Degas to make the Van Gogh because I'm baroque.

我沒有「莫內」給「竇加」來畫「梵谷」,因為我是巴洛克畫派。

或者是讀成(句中的 for 改成 or):

I have no Monet or Degas to make the Van Gogh because I'm baroque.

我沒有「莫內」或「竇加」來畫「梵谷」,因為我是巴洛克畫派。

莫內(Claude Monet)、竇加(Edgar Degas)、梵谷(Van Gogh)都是著名的印象派畫家,而巴洛克(Baroque)畫派則是完全不同的藝術風格。


下面還有一則利用 broke 與 baroque 諧音的雙關語。

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

東西沒壞,就不要修。

這是一句英文諺語,意思是沒事不要多事,以免弄巧反拙,多做多錯。

有人將它改成:

If it ain't baroque, don't fix it.

如果不是巴洛克風格,就不要修改。

也許是因為巴洛克藝術走華麗風格,有人反而認為是過度裝飾而不喜歡,要大幅俢改。

這個句子是利用英文讀音產生「諧音雙關」的文字遊戲,可以當成是一種諧音笑話。

補充幾則與本句相關的笑話:笨賊到美術館偷畫,結果車子沒油了 ⋯⋯

1. Painter Jokes

Q: Did you here about the attempt robbery at the museum?

A: They had ran out of gas a few blocks away when the police caught them, and they said, "We didn't have the Monet to buy Degas to make the Van Gogh"

2. An art thief broke into the Louvre

Through careful studying of the building plans and months of meticulous planning, he was able to evade all the security and stole several priceless paintings.

He then loaded the paintings into his van parked nearby. Just as he was about to leave, he heard the alarm go off in the building.

Without a moment's hesitation, he kicked the van into high gear and sped away.

However, his van ran out of gas less than 5 minutes later, and he was caught and arrested by the police.

"I don't understand", Said the police officer. "How could you plan all that so carefully, yet forget to fill up your gas tank?"

To which the thief replied: "But monsieur! Zat is exactly why I stole ze paintings! I had no Monet, to buy Degas, to make ze Van Gogh!"

3. When You Have "No Monet"

A thief in Paris decided to steal some paintings from the Louvre.

After careful planning, he got past security, stole the paintings, and made it safely to his van.

However, he was captured only two blocks away when his van ran out of gas.

When asked how he could mastermind such a crime and then make such an obvious error, he replied, ‘Monsieur, that is the reason I stole the paintings:
I had no Monet
To buy Degas
To make the Van Gogh.’

See if you have De Gaulle to send this to someone else.

I sent it to you because I figured I had nothing Toulouse.
