Marry me?I'm married
一个周末,和公司同事共乘一辆车去教堂参加同事女儿的婚礼。我好奇地向同座的Patrik问道:“美国人结婚一定要去教堂吗?”他不加思索的回答:“You don't have to,and you may go to court,or even in our office,Collin may marry you!”我半信半疑的问:“She may marry me?I'm married。”他朗声大笑:“Collin may marry anyone,as she is a public notary(公证员)!”
原来,这里的marry you是指“为你办理结婚公证手续”,而不是要“同你结婚”,因为她是公证员。
