你想学什么？
|
|
|
nǐ xiǎng xué shénme?
|
|
|
What do you want to study?
|
|
|
|
B
|
我也不知道。选择太多了！国画、油画、水彩、素描......
|
|
|
wǒ yě bù zhīdào. xuǎnzé tài duō le! guóhuà, yóuhuà, shuǐcǎi, sùmiáo......
|
|
|
I don't know. There is so much to choose from! Traditional Chinese painting, oil painting, watercolor, drawing...
|
|
|
|
A
|
我们一点基础都没有，还是学个简单的吧。
|
|
|
wǒmen yīdiǎn jīchǔ dōu méiyǒu, háishì xué ge jiǎndān de ba.
|
|
|
We don't even know the basics, we had better study something simple.
|
|
|
|
B
|
有道理。那，你说哪种好学？
|
|
|
yǒu dàolǐ. nà, nǐ shuō nǎ zhǒng hǎoxué?
|
|
|
That makes sense. Tell me which one is easy to learn.
|
|
|
|
A
|
国画，因为我小时候学过书法。
|
|
|
guóhuà, yīnwèi wǒ xiǎo shíhou xué guo shūfǎ.
|
|
|
Chinese traditional painting, because when I was young I studied calligraphy.
|
|
|
|
B
|
你没搞错吧？这有什么关系？
|
|
|
nǐ méi gǎocuò ba? zhè yǒu shénme guānxi?
|
|
|
Are you sure about that? What does that have to do with anything?
|
|
|
|
A
|
都是用毛笔啊。那，你想学什么？
|
|
|
dōu shì yòng máobǐ a. nà, nǐ xiǎng xué shénme?
|
|
|
They both use a writing brush. Now, what do you want to study?
|
|
|
|
B
|
嗯......油画。
|
|
|
ng......yóuhuà.
|
|
|
Hmm... oil painting.
|
|
|
|
A
|
很难的。而且颜料很臭。
|
|
|
hěn nán de. érqiě yánliào hěn chòu.
|
|
|
It's difficult, plus the paints are smelly.
|
|
|
|
B
|
没关系，为艺术牺牲嘛！
|
|
|
méiguānxi, wèi yìshù xīshēng ma!
|
|
|
So what? I'll suffer for art's sake!
