Pirates Need Science, Too

Arrrrr. Today, September 19th, is international talk like a pirate day. No, seriously, yo ho ho, check the web, it really is. When they say it "talk like pirate", they don't mean, for example, "Hey, can you copy these DVDs for me?" No, they mean when you talk like this. Ya know, matey, anyone could be a pirate, all ya needed was a proper disrespect for authority and a willingness to be seasick months at a time. But to be a truly successful pirate and not just the son of a biscuit eater, well, ya had to know a bit of science too.

呃,今天是9月19日,国际海盗语言日。真的,我可没开玩笑,不信你可以去网上搜下。当大伙儿要“扮海盗说话”时,可不是准备“玩盗版”,说一堆“嘿,你能帮我把这些DVD碟复刻一下吗?”之类的话。完全不是这么回事!国际海盗语言日就是大家真的像海盗一样说话,像这样:“要知道,伙计,谁都能成为一名海盗,而你所需的是要对当权者有股子蔑视无礼的劲儿,还有能忍受几个月晕船晕到七荤八素的心理准备。但要成为一名真正的海盗,别像个水手的私生子那样衰!当然,你最好还得有点科学知识。

A good pirate captain had to know the astronomy to navigate by the stars. He had to be acquainted with meteorology and know enough fluid dynamics to make sure he didn’t overload his ship with booty. And he needed the psychological skills to manage his literally motley crew.

一名优秀的海盗船长必须了解天文学,通过星相来导航,还必须熟知气象学,对流体动力学也要十分了解,这样他才不会给船上装载过量的战利品。这还没完,他还要掌握些心理技能才能把他手底下那些形形色色的喽喽们玩的转。

Your average pirate ship required a buccaneer surgeon to treat stab wounds and cat o' nine tails slashes, and a swashbucklin' general practitioner to make sure the men had the right diet to ward off scurvy with foods rich in vitamin C. Plus, your pirate optometrist supplied the men with eye patches. And of course, And of course, advanced veterinary pra..

What .. What do you mean my time's up? I'm a pirate, and I don't care of my time's up!

.. advanced veterinary practice kept your pirate parrots in fine fettle. So ya see, me hearty, no matter what your chosen path, science is sure to give you a hand. Or at least a hook .

你的每艘海盗船都需要一名甘愿当海盗的外科医生,给船员们处理刀刺伤口和九尾鞭打出的鞭伤,还要配上一名装模作样的全科医生来确保船员们饮食有方,多吃富含VC的食物,避免坏血病蔓延。当然,也少不了一名高级兽医……

喂,你什么意思?这么快就让我的60秒到了?!我可是个海盗,我才不管什么时间到没到的!

……也少不了一名高级兽医随侍左右,让你宠爱的海盗鹦鹉时刻神采奕奕。好啦,瞧,伙计,不管你选择怎样的道路,科学定可助你一臂之力。嗯,至少是助你一“钩”之力!
