順便講吓,法文係一條清晰嘅溪流,受到影響嘅作家從來都冇,亦都唔會能夠波紋,每個世紀都將佢嘅時尚、佢嘅自命不凡嘅古物同佢嘅珍貴拋入呢個清澈嘅潮流入面,但係冇任何嘢從嗰啲中浮現出嚟 無謂嘅嘗試,嗰啲無力嘅努力。呢種語言嘅性質係要清晰、合邏輯同緊張。

Lera Boroditsky writes that instead of
employing such terms as
“right,” “left,” “forward” and “back,” which are relative to an
observer, many Indigenous people of
Australia will exclusively use cardinal directions —
north, south, east or
west. To
speak properly, one must stay oriented at
all times. The correct response to a
normal greeting —
“Where are you going?” — is
something like “South-southeast, in
the middle distance,” but if
you don’t know which way you’re facing, you can’t even get past “Hello.”

Lera Boroditsky 寫嘅,而唔係用「右」、「左」、「前進」同「後退」呢啲相對於觀察者嘅詞彙,好多澳洲原住民都會專登用基本方向 —— 北、南、東或西,要講得啱,對正常嘅問候嘅正確回應 —— 「你要去邊度,但係你要去邊度?」 你唔知你面對緊邊條路,你連「哈囉」都過唔到。

I
went later than usual, after noon, to
the Lulu Island pizzeria on
the greyish 23rd of
March of 2022. At
the cashier, in
front of me,
were handsome Mormon proselytizers, one thick and the other thin, ordering pizza. They had ties and eyeglasses on.
Facing away, at
the counter, the thinner one, still waiting for his order, sat to
the left of
the thicker one, already devouring his pizza. From his pizza, the thicker one handed the other a
pineapple chunk, which he
gulped. Metaphorically, they were like Lojban and Esperanto, or
Animism and Buddhism, maybe. I
ate two slices and drank a
diet coke at my
usual northwestern corner. A
woman reminiscent of my
mother came in to
order. Maybe, my
mother was like the pagan Earth Mother Goddess for some.

我遲過平時,晏晝過後,喺2022年3月23號嘅灰色地帶去咗露露島嘅薄餅舖。喺我前面嘅收銀處,有啲靚仔嘅摩門教轉教者,一個厚,一個薄,叫緊薄餅。佢哋戴咗領帶同眼鏡。面對面,喺櫃台,個瘦啲嘅,仲等緊佢落單,坐喺厚啲嘅左邊,已經吞緊佢個薄餅。喺佢個薄餅入面,個厚啲嘅一個遞咗一塊菠蘿畀另一個,佢吞咗。比喻嚟講,佢哋可能好似洛吉班同世界語,或者係萬物有靈論同佛教。我喺我平時嘅西北角食咗兩片同埋飲咗支節食可樂。有個令人聯想到我阿媽嘅女人入嚟落單。可能,我阿媽對某啲人嚟講就好似異教嘅地球母親女神噉。
