趣味英语第115期:我有些笨拙 怎么能成为正常人

MissSparkle207 asks...

MissSparkle207问道：

"I'm a very awkward person. How do I become normal?"

“我是一个非常笨拙的人。我怎么能成为正常人？”

(chuckles) Well, normalcy is overrated.

（咯咯的笑）正常被高估了。

Being awkward is the easy way of getting out of talking to people and being shy. But if you have self-confidence in yourself and you know what you're saying is what you want to say and you're not afraid to let people know what you want to say, then that's how you kinda get out of your awkward barrier.

笨拙是摆脱和他人聊天、摆脱害羞的简单方法。但是如果你对自己有信心，你知道你说的话就是你想说的，你不怕让其他人知道你想说什么，那你就可以摆脱笨拙的阻碍了。

Don't become normal. Normal's boring. Just don't even try it.

不要做正常人。正常很无聊。试都不要试。

Girl, normal's boring. Don't be normal. Just be you.

女孩，正常很无聊。不要做正常人。做你自己就好。

You should actually just be yourself, because you're supposed to be who you are and not try to change yourself.

你应该做你自己，因为你就是你，不要尝试改变自己。

You just be yourself, and the best thing about being yourself is you don't have to worry about it.

做你自己，做自己的最好方式是不去担心那些。

Embrace your awkwardness. People that actually want to be your friends are gonna like it. And, you know, just be confident in yourself.

接受你的笨拙。想和你做朋友的人会喜欢你这点的。你知道，要对自己有信心。

I don't know what "awkward" really means, but maybe it sets you apart from other people. And don't we enjoy trying to be a little different?

我不知道“笨拙”到底是什么意思，也许那让你和其他人不一样。我们为什么不享受这点与众不同呢？

It's nice to be slightly off-normal, slightly insane, slightly have a good sense of humor or a good laugh. You'll soon get over it as you get older. Just relax.

稍微有些不正常、有些疯狂、有幽默感或开怀大笑很不错。随着你年龄的增长，你很快就能克服。放松就好。

Everyone is awkward to a certain extent. So, I mean... (silence) See how that was awkward? See? Like, you kinda just have to embrace it and go with it.

在一定程度上，每个人都有些笨拙。我的意思是……（沉默）你看那有多笨拙了吧？看到了吧？你只要接受并应对就好。
