《Forrest Gump》
Mama always had a way of explaining things so I could understand them.
妈妈总有办法让我明白她的意思。
We lived about a quarter mile off Route 17, about a half mile from the town of Greenbow, Alabama.
我们住在17号公路附近,距离阿拉巴马州绿茵镇大概半里。
That’s in the county of Greenbow. Our house had been in Mama’s family since her grandpa’s grandpa’s grandpa had come across the ocean about a thousand years ago.
这个地方属于绿茵县。我们的房子是从妈妈她爷爷的爷爷的爷爷那代传下来的。他大概在一千年前漂洋过海来这里。
Since it was just me and Mama and we had all these empty rooms. Mama decided to let those rooms out, mostly to people passing through, like from, oh, Mobile, Montgomery, places like that.
房子只有我和妈妈住,家里有好多空房间。妈妈决定将这些空房间租给路过的人,比如从莫比镇或蒙哥马利来的人。
That’s how me and Mama got money. Mama was a real smart lady.
我和妈妈靠这个挣钱。妈妈是位很聪明的女士。
