XEM PHIM- GOING TO MOVIES

Việc đi xem phim có tính cách cá nhân.
Going to the movie is personal.
Mỗi người có một cách riêng để thưởng thức phim.
Each has an individual way to enjoy films.
Tôi đã có một cách khá độc đáo ở cái tuổi khá nhỏ.
I had a rather unique one at a rather young age.
Đa số đi xem phim với nhóm bạn hoặc với người thân nhất.
Most go to the movies with a group of friends or the closest ones.
Tôi đã đi xem một mình.
I went alone.
Như thế nào và tại sao tôi có thể làm được điều ấy?
How and why could I do it?
Vào năm tôi học lớp 8, tôi đã bắt đầu suy nghĩ về chuyện đời.
When I was a 8th grader, I began thinking of life.
Trong một rạp, với vài bạn ồn ào, tôi thể không tập trung xem phim được.
In a cinema with some noisy friends, I couldn’t concentrate on the film.
Tôi đã phải tìm ra một cách để thưởng thức ý nghĩa của cuốn phim.
I had to find a way                    to enjoy most of the meaning of the film.
Tại Cần Thơ có 3 rạp thường chiếu phim tình cảm tây phương.
In Can Tho, there were 3 cinemas showing western love films.
Đó là : Tây Đô, Huỳng Lạc và Casino.
They were : Tay Do, Huynh Lac and Casino.
Các rạp liệt kê những ngày chiếu, những xuất chiếu và nội dung phim.
They listed dates, hours                                          and the film reviews.
Tôi chọn ngày chiếu và xuất chiếu cuối cùng, khi có ít người xem nhất.
I chose the last day and show when there were         the least movie goers.
Tôi đã đạp xe đến khi rạp khi họ bắt đầu bán vé cho xuất chót lúc 9:30.
I rode my bike there  when they began selling the last show tickets at 9:30.
Tôi luôn hỏi mua ghế W10, hạng bình dân.
I always asked for the W10 seat, a popular class.
Xong, tôi đạp xe về nhà và chờ đến mới đi bộ đến xem phim.
Then, I rode home and waited till to walk there.
Trong suốt thời gian, tôi cố đắm mình vào phim, nhớ những điều đáng nhớđặc biệt là các câu nói hay nhất.
During the whole time, I tried to put myself in it, remember what was memorable      especially the best spoken sentences.
Trên đường về, tô cố ôn lại những gì tôi đã trước đó ghi nhận.
On the way home, I tried to recall what I had noticed.
Đêm ấy tôi băn khoăn tự hỏi về những gì trong phim và cái triết lý của nó.
That night, I wondered what was in it and                        its philosophy.
Tôi đã không màng đến diển viên đẹp thế nào, nhưng họ diển xuất như thế nào.
I didn’t care how beautiful they looked, but how beautifully they acted.
Tôi cũng đã không để tâm đến các cảnh bạo lực ân ái hay hài hước.
I     didn’t mention the sexual, violent or humorous scences either.
Tôi đã muốn tìm ra cái gì mà đạo diển phim đã muốn trình bày.
I wanted to find out what   the film director had wanted to show.
Đến nay tôi còn nhớ một số phim tôi đã xem cách đây 40 năm.
I have still recalled some I watched 40 years ago.
                                                                       (to be cont.)

HOW SHORT an email can be.

Hi, Guy.
                                What has happened to you?
I wonder             what has happened to you.
It's OK to tell me what has happened to you.
Bye.

Another example of HOA THAY LỜI MUỐN NÓI

Thế thị trường hoa tươi cắt cành ở Cần Thơ đã trở nên sôi động theo qui luật cung – cầu.

Then, due to the law of supply and demand, Can Tho flower market has become profitable. (my translation)
________________________________________________________________________________
       The fresh and cut flower markets in Cantho have turned into an evenful environment of SUPPLY – DEMAND rule. (someone else's)
 

A piece from HOA THAY LỜI MUỐN NÓI- CẦN THƠ PHỐ

Nếu có dịp bước vào một cửa hàng hoa bất kỳ nào đó ở nội ô Cần Thơ bạn sẽ dễ choáng ngợp bởi hương sắc của các loại hoa không thể nào nhớ hết tên, biết hết họ.
        If you have a chance to go to any flower shop in Can Tho, you will easily shocked by fragant, colors of unfamiliar kind and species of flowers.

An example of my translation

điều dễ nhận thấy nhất      những shop hoa sang trọng mở nhiều hơn trên những con đường đông người qua lại, chợ lớn chợ nhỏ nào cũng có tiệm bán hoa, siêu thị nào cũng có quầy bán hoa.
       And the most invisible thing      is     that there are  the elegant flowershops on crowed treets, in both small and big markets  as well as any super market.

WHERE'S MY PEN?

                                 My pen is………..
                             Is my pen…
                 Where is my pen?
                                Your pen is…
                                       It       is somewhere.
                                       It       is where I can’t see.
              Someone takes it.
                                       It is taken.
       I don’t know where it is.
        I wonder      where it is.
      Noone knows where it is.
    I want to know where it is.
Can you tell me   where it is?
There’s a pen somewhere but I don’t know if it’s mine.
There’s a pen somewhere but I don’t know if it’s yours.
                      It’s hard to find where it is.
              Where it is  is hard to find.
No matter where it is, I don’t mention it.
I go find it no matter where it is.
