Wish List

Todd: So, Rebecca, let's talk about things we wish could do that we can't do. What is something you wish you could do, that you can't do now? Rebecca: I think it would be definitely playing music, like playing a guitar. Some of my friends can just pull out a guitar and start singing and then you have everybody around and it's such a great night. I just wish I could join them and actually, yeah, have fun with that as well, but no, I can't play guitar. Todd: So, if you could play any instrument, it would be the guitar? Rebecca: Yeah. Yeah.

I think so. I have played piano and saxophone before but not overly that well. Todd: Oh, really so you actually had musical training? Rebecca: Yeah, when I was in high school. Todd: In the piano and the saxophone? Rebecca: Yep. Yeah.

The saxophone was maybe for one or two years and I would love to get back into playing that as well, but they're quite expensive little instruments actually. Todd: Yeah. Slightly. Rebecca: And then the piano is very large so, you can't really transport that around with you wherever you go. Todd: So do you think that if had learned music at a younger age, you would still be with it? Was the problem just that you waited to late in life to start? Rebecca: I don't think so. I think it's more the friends circle that I was with. We weren't really a musical group and the people that I've met now are really musical so you sort of wish maybe if I had kept going I could have joined them now, but I do enjoy listening to them. Todd: Well, what about singing? Are you a good singer? Rebecca: No. Not at all. I don't think I want to be a good singer either cause then everybody would expect you to sing all the time so I just do backup vocals , really badly. Todd: Well, I'm the same way. I can't sing at all. OK, so basically you wish you could play the guitar, but you have played the piano and the saxophone before. Rebecca: Yes. Todd: OK, is there anything else that you wish you could do? Rebecca: To be able to speak maybe a couple languages would be nice. Todd: Yeah, that's a good one. So if you could speak any two languages, what two would you want to speak? Rebecca: I think Japanese and Spanish. Todd: Japanese and Spanish? Rebecca: Yeah. Yeah.

They both sound really interesting and they're both the countries that I would like to go and visit and maybe attempt to work there but you need to be able to speak the language before you can work. Todd: Right. That's true. I think if I could choose any two languages I would choose Chinese and Arabic just because both those languages when I hear them they sound so completely impossible to speak, so if you could speak those, that would be pretty amazing. Rebecca: Yeah, definitely. Yeah, Chinese sounds like a hard language. Todd: All those tones .

Todd: So, Rebecca, let’s talk about things we wish could do that we can’t do. Todd: Entonces, Rebecca, hablemos de las cosas que desearíamos poder hacer y que no podemos hacer. Todd: Dus, Rebecca, laten we praten over dingen die we zouden kunnen doen dat we niet kunnen doen. 托德:丽贝卡,我们来谈谈我们希望做但做不到的事情吧。 What is something you wish you could do, that you can’t do now? 您现在希望做但现在无法做的事情是什么? Rebecca: I think it would be definitely playing music, like playing a guitar. 丽贝卡:我认为那肯定是演奏音乐,比如弹吉他。 Some of my friends can just pull out a guitar and start singing and then you have everybody around and it’s such a great night. Algunos de mis amigos pueden simplemente sacar una guitarra y comenzar a cantar y luego tienes a todos alrededor y es una gran noche. Alguns dos meus amigos podem simplesmente puxar de uma guitarra e começar a cantar e depois temos toda a gente à volta e é uma noite fantástica. 我的一些朋友只需拿出一把吉他就开始唱歌,然后大家就围在一起,这真是一个美妙的夜晚。 I just wish I could join them and actually, yeah, have fun with that as well, but no, I can’t play guitar. Ojalá pudiera unirme a ellos y, de hecho, sí, divertirme con eso también, pero no, no puedo tocar la guitarra. Só queria poder juntar-me a eles e, na verdade, divertir-me com isso também, mas não, não sei tocar guitarra. 我只是希望我能加入他们,实际上,是的,也能玩得开心,但是不,我不会弹吉他。 Todd: So, if you could play any instrument, it would be the guitar? Todd: Entonces, si pudieras tocar cualquier instrumento, ¿sería la guitarra? 托德:那么,如果你可以演奏任何乐器,你会选择吉他吗? Rebecca: Yeah. 丽贝卡:是的。 Yeah. 是的。

I think so. 我想是这样。 I have played piano and saxophone before but not overly that well. He tocado el piano y el saxofón antes, pero no demasiado bien. Já toquei piano e saxofone, mas não muito bem. 我以前弹过钢琴和萨克斯管,但弹得不是很好。 Todd: Oh, really so you actually had musical training? Todd: Oh, ¿de verdad tenías formación musical? 托德:哦,真的吗,那么你实际上接受过音乐训练吗? Rebecca: Yeah, when I was in high school. 丽贝卡:是的,当我上高中的时候。 Todd: In the piano and the saxophone? 托德:钢琴和萨克斯管? Rebecca: Yep. Yeah.

The saxophone was maybe for one or two years and I would love to get back into playing that as well, but they’re quite expensive little instruments actually. El saxofón estuvo tal vez durante uno o dos años y me encantaría volver a tocarlo también, pero en realidad son pequeños instrumentos bastante caros. De saxofoon was misschien voor een of twee jaar en ik zou graag nog een keer willen spelen, maar het zijn best wel dure kleine instrumenten eigenlijk. O saxofone foi talvez durante um ou dois anos e gostaria de voltar a tocá-lo também, mas na verdade são instrumentos muito caros. 我可能吹了一两年萨克斯管,我很想重新开始演奏它,但它们实际上是相当昂贵的小乐器。 Todd: Yeah. 托德:是的。 Slightly. Um pouco. 轻微地。 Rebecca: And then the piano is very large so, you can’t really transport that around with you wherever you go. Rebecca: Y luego, el piano es muy grande, así que realmente no puedes transportarlo contigo dondequiera que vayas. Rebecca: E o piano é muito grande, por isso não é possível transportá-lo para onde quer que se vá. 丽贝卡:而且钢琴很大,所以无论你去哪里都无法随身携带它。 Todd: So do you think that if had learned music at a younger age, you would still be with it? Todd: Entonces, ¿crees que si hubieras aprendido música a una edad más temprana, todavía estarías con ella? Todd: Dus denk je dat als je op jongere leeftijd muziek had geleerd, je er nog steeds mee zou zijn? Todd: Então, achas que se tivesses aprendido música numa idade mais jovem, ainda estarias com ela? 托德:那么你认为如果你在年轻的时候学习音乐,你还会继续从事这个行业吗? Was the problem just that you waited to late in life to start? ¿El problema fue que esperaste demasiado tarde en la vida para empezar? 問題はあなたが人生の後半に始まるのを待っていたということでしたか? Was het probleem alleen dat je te laat in het leven wachtte om te beginnen? 问题是否仅仅在于你等得太晚才开始? Rebecca: I don’t think so. rebeca: no lo creo 丽贝卡:我不这么认为。 I think it’s more the friends circle that I was with. Creo que es más el círculo de amigos con el que estaba. 我认为这更多的是我所在的朋友圈。 We weren’t really a musical group and the people that I’ve met now are really musical so you sort of wish maybe if I had kept going I could have joined them now, but I do enjoy listening to them. En realidad, no éramos un grupo musical y la gente que he conocido ahora es muy musical, así que tal vez desearías que si hubiera seguido adelante, podría haberme unido a ellos ahora, pero disfruto escuchándolos. 我们实际上并不是一个音乐团体,而我现在遇到的人都是真正具有音乐天赋的人,所以你会希望如果我继续下去,也许我现在就可以加入他们,但我确实喜欢听他们的音乐。 Todd: Well, what about singing? 托德:那唱歌怎么样? Are you a good singer? 你是一位优秀的歌手吗? Rebecca: No. 丽贝卡:没有。 Not at all. De nada. 一点也不。 I don’t think I want to be a good singer either cause then everybody would expect you to sing all the time so I just do backup vocals , really badly. Tampoco creo que quiera ser un buen cantante porque entonces todos esperarían que cantas todo el tiempo, así que solo hago coros, muy mal. Ik denk niet dat ik een goede zangeres wil zijn, want dan zou iedereen verwachten dat je de hele tijd zingt, dus ik doe gewoon een back-up, echt heel slecht. Acho que também não quero ser uma boa cantora, porque assim toda a gente esperaria que cantasse a toda a hora, por isso limito-me a fazer vozes de apoio, muito mal. 我也不认为我想成为一名好歌手,因为那样的话每个人都会期望你一直唱歌,所以我只是做伴唱,而且唱得很糟糕。 Todd: Well, I’m the same way. Todd: Bueno, yo soy igual. 托德:嗯,我也是这样的。 I can’t sing at all. No puedo cantar en absoluto. 我根本就不会唱歌。 OK, so basically you wish you could play the guitar, but you have played the piano and the saxophone before. Bien, básicamente te gustaría poder tocar la guitarra, pero has tocado el piano y el saxofón antes. 好的,基本上你希望自己会弹吉他,但是你以前弹过钢琴和萨克斯管。 Rebecca: Yes. Todd: OK, is there anything else that you wish you could do? 托德:好的,你还有什么希望可以做的吗? Rebecca: To be able to speak maybe a couple languages would be nice. Rebecca: Ser capaz de hablar tal vez un par de idiomas sería bueno. 丽贝卡:如果能说几种语言就更好了。 Todd: Yeah, that’s a good one. Todd: Sí, esa es buena. 托德:嗯,这个问题很好。 So if you could speak any two languages, what two would you want to speak? 那么,如果您可以说任意两种语言,您想说哪两种? Rebecca: I think Japanese and Spanish. Rebecca: Creo que japonés y español. 丽贝卡:我认为是日语和西班牙语。 Todd: Japanese and Spanish? 托德:日语和西班牙语? Rebecca: Yeah. 丽贝卡:是的。 Yeah. 是的。

They both sound really interesting and they’re both the countries that I would like to go and visit and maybe attempt to work there but you need to be able to speak the language before you can work. Ambos suenan realmente interesantes y ambos son países a los que me gustaría ir y visitar y tal vez intentar trabajar allí, pero debes poder hablar el idioma antes de poder trabajar. 这两个国家听起来都很有趣,我都想去参观,也许还会尝试去那里工作,但你必须先会说当地的语言才能工作。 Todd: Right. 托德:对。 That’s true. 这是真的。 I think if I could choose any two languages I would choose Chinese and Arabic just because both those languages when I hear them they sound so completely impossible to speak, so if you could speak those, that would be pretty amazing. Creo que si pudiera elegir dos idiomas, elegiría el chino y el árabe porque ambos idiomas, cuando los escucho, suenan completamente imposibles de hablar, así que si pudieras hablarlos, sería bastante sorprendente. 我想如果我可以选择两种语言,我会选择中文和阿拉伯语,因为当我听到这两种语言时,它们听起来完全不可能说出来,所以如果你能说这两种语言,那将是相当了不起的。 Rebecca: Yeah, definitely. rebeca: sí, definitivamente. 丽贝卡:是的,确实如此。 Yeah, Chinese sounds like a hard language. Sí, el chino suena como un idioma difícil. 是的,中文听起来像是一种很难的语言。 Todd: All those tones . Todd: Todos esos tonos. 托德:所有这些音调。
