What’s the attitude of British people towards life value?

 

British people are governed a lot more than other cultures, in
terms of what is right and quite traditional values. They’re quite proud as a culture,
and I think they get embarrassed very easily by things, They’re not very brash.

英国和其他一些国家相比,英国人受到的约束更多一些。Govern 就是管理,管制。

英国人对什么是正确的,什么是可以接受的行为比较重视。同时英国人也尊重传统的观点traditional values

Embarrassed 觉得不好意思,尴尬的。有时候很小的事情就足以让英国人觉得难为
情,不好意思。英国人不是很轻率类型的人,brash 就是做事轻率,鲁莽,没礼貌。

I think people are still concerned for their family and their friends and just trying to
make their lives as good as they can. People work very hard in the UK. I think they
have some of the longest working hours in Europe. And people are working to try
and improve their lives, and to try and improve the lives of the people they love.

当代英国人对家庭和朋友还是很重视的.

和欧洲其他国家相比,英国人的工作时间还是很长的。大家都想让自己的家人们过上好日子。

I think they bear it, but they also whinge an awful lot about it, but I think,
in a way that is characteristic of them. I think there’s a tendency for other countries
and cultures to perceive them as quite glum and maybe a little bit miserable really.
But our dryness and resilience and stoicness I think is probably what sets them apart
from other nations. And that’s something that they personally are proud of.
英国人对生活总是会有些抱怨, whinge 就是不停的抱怨,这是英的特征之一。

所以很多其他国家的人会觉得英国人看上去老是闷闷不乐的glum, 或者是有些意志萧条,忧郁的miserable.

 

But in fact Brits are not always like that, they’re different to other
nations’ perception. British people have a dry sense of humour, they’re
resilient and stoic.
英国人特有的干幽默dry sense of humour 是其他人不能完全领悟的;另外英国人不怕挫折,适应力强resilience,而且性格还很坚忍stoic.

British thinks the number one important thing in life is health.

Health, as long as you are healthy, you go out there, you meet people, you enjoy
them and take every moment as it comes.

为健康是最重要的,有了好身体,就有机会多出去结交朋友,把握机会to take every moment as it comes.

 

Family comes first.

把家庭放在第一位family comes first.
