call out大隊/Woos Local Advertisers

"Google拉在地廣告 靠call out大隊" 這標題可能錯誤 因為有call in
不見得有這樣的 call out意思

The captain asked Ms. Fleytas to make an emergency announcement. She looked at her boss, Mr. Keplinger. “She said she couldn’t do it,” he said. “She looked pretty nervous.”

Although Ms. Fleytas disputes Mr. Keplinger’s account, it was Mr. Keplinger who got on the intercom.

“Fire, fire, fire,” he called out.


一種說法:
Google Woos Local Advertisers
Google, which helped popularize the idea of automated ad sales on the Web, has been quietly turning to an old-fashioned tool—phone calls—to compete for local business advertising.

荒原驚動日本

田村隆一詩文集1974 p.187
提到某日譯本為

夏天伴著驟雨
來到史....湖上
使我們驚奇了

可是原詩為:
Summer surprised us, coming over the Starnbergersee
With a shower of rain; we stopped in the colonnade,*

這讓田村隆一知道:日語是不能經驗的語言
這種感嘆也出現在本書前面

Bleak House CHAPTER XLVII. Jo's Will

此章末句的翻譯待討論


CHAPTER XLVII. Jo's Will


(Bleak House)http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/etext97/blkhs12h.htm

"Jo, can you say what I say?"

"I'll say anythink as you say, sir, for I knows it's good."

"Our Father."

"Our Father! Yes, that's wery good, sir."

"Which art in heaven."

"Art in heaven—is the light a-comin, sir?"

"It is close at hand. Hallowed by thy name!"

"Hallowed be—thy—"

The light is come upon the dark benighted way. Dead!

Dead, your Majesty. Dead, my lords and gentlemen. Dead, right reverends and wrong reverends of every order. Dead, men and women, born with heavenly compassion in your hearts. And dying thus around us every day.
