Chapter 930: The Great Oolong of Dialects



The compatriots of the embassy are really good, and the planned sightseeing activity on a double-decker bus is very interesting, without them grabbing the map to find, and without them having to work hard to measure the land of Stockholm with their feet, comfortable, xt full works download [.. 】

I don't know what kind of feeling it is for the leader sitting at the top to blow the cold wind, maybe he is frozen and happy. But Yang Guo, Qiqi, and reporter Xiao Zhang chatted while watching the scenery on the first floor, and they were also very happy.

Although Yang Guo has never been to Sweden and has never seen these scenic spots, he recognizes the Swedish language on the road signs, and then he reads a lot of books, all kinds of allusions and anecdotes are at his fingertips, and he plays the role of a tour guide along the way, so that Qiqi and Xiao Zhang reporters are not only fascinated by it, but also listen to it with relish.

Reporter Zhang is even more interesting, he took out his notebook and listened to it while taking shorthand, which, according to him, may become material for his reporting. What a professional journalist!

"Xiao Yang, Xiao Yang!" Suddenly there was a call from the local leader surnamed Liu, Yang Guo glanced at reporter Xiao Zhang, and hurriedly walked over with his daughter in his arms.

"Xiao Yang!" Leader Liu smiled and said to Yang Guo, "You come and try it with this driver, just now our leader said that he wanted to go to Sergel Square to have a look, isn't it known as the Venice of Northern Europe?" However, it seems that the translator Xiao Deng can't communicate with him. ”

Translator Xiao Deng is a translator of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who accompanied him today, and his Swedish language is actually okay, but it belongs to the academic school, Yang Guo feels that the people in the embassy are more material than him. In the middle of winter, he wiped his sweat and complained to Yang Guo: "This century may not be a local, and the dialect accent is too strong to understand." ”

It is also possible that Sweden is not a large country, but there are still some dialects, and these dialects have evolved from the old Old Norse (the predecessor of Swedish), which are very different from the marked Swedish in terms of grammar and vocabulary, and some of them can no longer be called Swedish

。 These dialects are now less and less spoken, but they still don't change their existence.

When Yang Guo was learning Swedish, he had an understanding of these dialects, because there were really many scholars who studied them in depth and provided Yang Guo with a lot of references. However, this is all theoretical, and colloquially, Yang Guo has not heard much audio in dialects, so he is not necessarily much better than the translator Xiao Deng in this regard.

I can only say give it a try! Yang Guo went up and accosted the driver. Hearing him speak the first string of Swedish, which had a thick voice and a muddy tongue, Yang Guo frowned.

Unlike the translator Xiao Deng, Xiao Deng listened mainly to pronunciation, so he couldn't understand it, but Yang Guo listened to grammar, and Yang Guo was surprised to find that although the driver's accent was a little puzzling, the grammatical structure of his speech was still standard Swedish.

Suffice it to say, although he said something wrong, he is still on the right track!

And Yang Guo also found something that he was not very sure about, so he tried to change his tone to communicate with this driver. Then, Yang Guo heard a pronunciation that he wanted to hear!

Yang Guo smiled, he understood why Xiao Deng couldn't communicate with the driver!

It's like the Chinese communicate with the people of the country of sticks or neon in English, the Chinese people have their own pronunciation tones of Chinese English, and the country of sticks or neon countries also have their own unique pronunciation patterns, so when compared, it feels that the two people are not speaking the same language, there is a big difference, and they can't understand what the other party is saying!

That's right, the driver is not only not a local, but also not a native of Sweden, Yang Guo doesn't know what nationality the driver is now, but Yang Guo knows that he was or is probably still a Portuguese!

Portuguese and Spanish belong to the Romance language family, and the Germanic language family to which Swedish belongs are fundamentally two different origins, he speaks Swedish, with Portuguese accent and even grammatical habits, while the translator Xiao Deng is Chinese-style Swedish, they can both understand standard Swedish, but listening to each other's words, it is completely like listening to another language, confused, difficult to distinguish.

The Swedish spoken by Yang Guo and the Swedish spoken by the embassy staff who had sent them to the bus before but left in a hurry were relatively standard, and the driver could understand them, but his answers were more difficult.

Sure enough, Yang Guo changed to Portuguese to communicate with the driver, and the driver immediately laughed, he shook hands with Yang Guo, and said loudly: "Haha, great, I can finally express my meaning comfortably."

! ”

Yang Guo greeted him for a while, and then expressed to him their request to go to Sergel Square, and the driver immediately said that this is okay, but they are now on Kings Island, and if they want to change the route to Staden Island, they will have to recalculate the charter fare!

Yang Guo truthfully conveyed this problem to Leader Liu, who waved his hand heroically and said, "Tell him that money is not a problem!" ”

So, Yang Guo explained to the driver where he was going, and then shook hands with him, and the bus parked on the side of the road slowly started again.

"It's still Xiao Yang!" Leader Liu said with a smile to a few leaders who came down to watch, "He can even speak the dialect so well, no wonder Teacher Han said that he can't compare to Xiao Yang." ”

Old Man Mo clasped his hands and smiled, his apprentice was praised, and he was embarrassed to speak.

"Xiao Deng, have you heard, you have to learn more from Yang Guo in the future!" The leader of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs felt a little blushing, and pointed to the translator Xiao Deng and said, "The language is the same, there is no end to learning, you not only have to learn Swedish well, but also like Xiao Yang, you must understand the dialect thoroughly, otherwise how to deal with today's emergency?" ”

Xiao Deng nodded yes, his expression was extremely embarrassed.

Yang Guo arched his hand with a wry smile and said, "Leaders, don't wear a high hat for me!" There is a misunderstanding in this matter, the driver does not speak dialects, he just speaks Swedish not as well as Xiao Deng, just now, I also communicated with him in Portuguese! ”

Xiao Deng was stunned, but still looked at Yang Guo with some gratitude, he felt that Yang Guo had helped him out of the siege. At least, it's not his fault! He doesn't understand Portuguese, and that's not bad for him!

Yang Guo didn't understand these twists and turns in officialdom, he just told the facts.

However, his explanation made these officials feel that Yang Guo was powerful, and they said: "Xiao Yang can still speak Portuguese fluently? That's amazing! ”

Some leaders also suggested that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs recruit Yang Guote. However, this is just a joke on their part. Not to mention whether they are willing to recruit an "outsider" to come in, even if they invite, Yang Guo will not agree!
