在越南時間4/22晚上21點19分26秒
我的紛絲專頁＃李鼎的也不賴
突然出現了這張黑色的截圖
截圖來自我最新的作品「我在台61」電影版的最後一張劇情
那是整部片到最後所有主創人員名單出來前的最後一個畫面
應該所有作品最後一個畫面
都是極為重要的
而「我在台61」卻是選了三個字最為結束
叫做「路上見」
並用了三位主角：李亦捷、楊鎮、福地祐介的聲音詮釋
而這個來自越南的讀者的截圖留話
竟是把這句話的翻譯
圈了起來
給了一的大問號
並寫了「MEET」

這樣的截圖
好像看到小學作業老師對於你的作業不滿意
而做的舉動

面對電影最後一個畫面被人截圖
然後用了小學老師批改作業的方式
留在你公開的粉絲專頁
換成是你
你會怎麼想？

我有點高興
因為
我一直知道自己跟自己創作的團隊在做什麼
所以有一種
拍片拍了這麼久
終於有人
會對我們英文翻譯的團隊
提出想法了
而且來自越南
（原來現在連越南都看得到這部電影了）

於是我立刻去電美國給我們這部電影的翻譯
他當然也第一時間看了這位來自越南女士的臉書帳號
確定不是傳說中的「網軍」
於是
翻譯朱倩儀小姐
就用中英文
一起回應了這位來自越南的阮女士
關於「ME」與「meet」
在這部作品裡的概念

分享朱倩儀小姐的留言
也很樂見
最後這位阮女士
在留言板上的回應

＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

親愛的阮女士，
謝謝您的指教！我萬分感謝您觀賞這部電影，而且給予我們您寶貴的意見。
您建議在劇終「我們路上見」（Let’s Me Again, on the road.) 應該是（Let’s Meet again, on the road)。您的建議在標準文法完全是正確的。但可以容許我為您解釋一下最終導演仍採用了我們使用「me」的想法嗎？

語言本就是一多層次的表達工具。中文尤其美麗，尤其一個簡單的用字可以有好多不同的心思。
在接到這份翻譯的殊榮時，我是既興奮又緊張的。李鼎導演的詩意作家特質,及對角色，故事的詮釋，描寫及張力，絶對不是平舖直敘就能感受到他的初衷，他的溫度。所以，明知冒險，我還是選擇做了大膽的嘗試。我和團隊（二位ABC) 經由彼此對各自語言及文化的了解，試著把李亦捷，Ray （楊鎮）及福地佑介的個性，藉由使用語言的個性，帶入他們的對話裏。
因著「台61」而讓他們三位相遇，也延伸了之後的故事。在從最初Ray 安靜的推著重機不願打擾到海鳥的開始，第一個「me」就出現了，然後是亦捷⋯所以。
在最後，當三個人，開心但不捨地以咖啡乾杯後的分道揚鑣，許下再見面的心願時，這是李鼎導演在影片中第二次使用「路上見」（第一次在福地祐介留給李亦捷的紙條中）（第一次我們翻譯使用的是：See you on the Road），而當第二次再度使用「路上見」並用在片尾，使用三位角色的聲音，我們覺得意義非凡，不再來自於See you on the Road的想像，決定讓中文中的詩意，翻成Let’s Me again, on the road.這讓三個角色心中無論是吶喊，低訴或是緯緯道來，我想，都是由她/他的心「me!」「 Let’s Me...」讓我，在路上再次遇見你。

很感謝李鼎導演給了我和團隊這樣美好第一次翻譯的經驗，我仍有許多需要進步的空間，也期望因著這部「我在台61」, 我們都因此有共享的公路，感動及連結。
再次謝謝你也觀賞「我在台61」，所以我們相遇，聽到彼此的聲音。

Dear Ms. Nguyễn
Thank you so much for the comments. I am so grateful that you watched the movie and given valuable comments. Please allow me to explain the usage of “me” here ( I am responsible to translate the scripts.)
Yes, you are absolutely right on the “ Let’s MEET” again!” in most of the circumstances. But I am humbling to say that my purpose of translating the word “meet” to “me” is trying to emphasis on the willingness of “coming back on the road again” from three individual main characters. They are all cheering up for their fate to be together because of Highway 61. So I thought they would shout out loud from their hearts to say “let’s me again, on the road!” to echo the director Lee’s poetic style.
Like every language, it’s never easy to complete portrait the whole story from one to another. A simple word could have few different meaning in the culture. It’s truly my pleasure had the opportunity to translate the Chinese( or Taiwanese) story to English. There are so many beautiful words and touching moments that just can’t change words to words. And each characters has her/his personality and tones. Therefore, I try to adopt the heart of story with the understanding of English that I think it would sound most authentic for each characters. This has been an amazing experience to me, walking along with director Lee to see my country and helping to deliver the landscape, the sea breeze, the birds, the temple...and the Highway 61 to you in different language.
Thank you again for the heart of going through the Highway 61 journey with us, and share your thoughts!

Btw, it’s very nice meeting you here. Could I assume you may from Vietnam？ My husband is also from Vietnam and we live in Colorado now.

Regards,
Chien Yi 朱倩儀（Chienyi Luu）

為什麼這個臉書要加一個「也不賴」呢？因為不是最好，也不是最壞，只想做你心裡面的那個溫暖的感覺，就是也不賴三個字的意思。謝謝你來到這裡，發現你的也不賴！

Taipei Times 英文臺北時報今刊出讀者投書致賴揆：
官方一直示範菜英文，還想列英文為第二官語？

舉例之一：交通部觀光局行之五年的「借問站」計劃英文宣傳名稱「Taiwan Ask Me」是「菜英文」。無誤！

繼之前的菜英文「Taiwan Touch Your Heart」之後，不意外。

最後這一段切中要害：

// Finally, Premier Lai, how can Taiwan effectively pursue the valuable and challenging goal of making English an official language of this country if the ROC government’s own ministries are not even able to correctly compose a simple advertisement in English? //

猜測作者 Xue Meng-ren 很可能是薛孟仁（Dr. Bruce G. Shapiro），逢甲大學外國語文學系副教授。

謝謝薛教授用專業的聲音告誡政府勿失策。

An open letter to Premier William Lai

By Xue Meng-ren

Wed, Oct 24, 2018

Dear Premier William Lai (賴清德):

You have admirably and lately led Taiwan in an ongoing discussion about whether to make English a second “official” language. Many articles have appeared defending both sides of this argument.

As it stands, Taiwan uses the traditional style of Mandarin Chinese for all official government, legal and business documents. However, the Taiwanese government frequently uses English in a non-official capacity to facilitate outreach initiatives and better communication with non-Chinese-speaking residents and tourists.

“Taiwan Ask Me” is one such governmental initiative, which the Ministry of Transportation and Communications initiated five years ago.

As a Cabinet-level governmental body charged with communications, the ministry’s standard of English should be a model of English usage for the rest of the nation, particularly the tourism industry, which the ministry also officially administers.

Unfortunately, the ministry has demonstrated that its use of English is both inept and even — albeit inadvertently — insulting.

On the Republic of China’s National Day, on page 5 of the Taipei Times, the ministry’s Tourism Bureau published an announcement about the fifth anniversary of the “Taiwan Ask Me” initiative. This announcement features not only elementary grammatical errors, but also incorrect English usage that renders it meaningless and embarrassing.

To begin, in English, the phrase “Taiwan Ask Me” is nonsense, that is, it has no meaning. It must at least have some defining punctuation, such as, “Taiwan? Ask Me” or “Taiwan, Ask Me.”

The service is supposed to be for tourists in need of answers to questions about traveling around Taiwan, but the phrase “Taiwan Ask Me” absurdly means that Taiwan should ask someone, “me,” something about itself.

And, who does this “me” refer to? Certainly, the initiative does not limit itself to employing a single individual, but rather a team of individuals. Therefore, the phrase should be “Taiwan, Ask Us” not “me.”

This type of error, along with the rest of the advertisement, not only demonstrates poor English usage, but more importantly, it suggests a lack of awareness about what service to others actually means.

It suggests that the initiative “Taiwan Ask Me” is merely paying lip service to a valuable concept of a democratic government that it does not truly value or even understand. This poorly written advertisement reveals that it is more interested in celebrating its own anniversary than it is in providing the service for which it is lauding itself.

The announcement states that the ministry “launched the ‘Taiwan Ask Me’ friendly travel information service” five years ago, and now has 450 Information Stations “that prove warm and friendly services.”

Obviously, the Information Services must provide not “prove” their services. “Prove” is the incorrect English word, unless the intention is for the ministry to pat itself on the back by saying that over the past five years the service has “proved its services are warm and friendly,” but then the grammar is still incorrect.

Furthermore, the use of both “warm” and “friendly” is repetitive, since the words are synonymous in this context. Using repetitive words in this way is a feature of the elementary English usage quite common in Taiwan, but governmental English has no excuse for being elementary.

In addition to offering “domestic and foreign tourists the warmest greetings,” through the Taiwan Ask Me Information Stations, “the service further incorporates rich travel elements.” The phrase “rich travel elements” is verbal nonsense. It correctly connects words that have no discernible meaning. The article does not define or elaborate upon them.

In the following run-on sentence, the article connects these “rich travel elements” with “five unique features,” the first of which is “local gourmets.” Why would a tourist want to meet a gourmet? And what kind of a gourmet?

The ministry probably means “local food” or perhaps “local delicacies,” whereas a “gourmet” is a food connoisseur, that is, a lover of good food. “Gourmets” is an example of another English error common in Taiwan, which is to use the incorrect English word to say something related to that word.

Using Google Translate often helps Taiwanese students make these ridiculous English errors. Unfortunately, government ministers are no longer students. Thus, one expects them to have a better grasp of English, certainly as it pertains to their own special purpose or field of employment.

Together, the “five unique features” mentioned in the article are supposed to “form [a] synergistic local economy of tourism,” whatever that is. Thus, the advertisement uses yet another nonsensical phrase, the meaning of which even the necessary grammatical insertion of “a” does not clarify.

The tourist economy in Taiwan is definitely important, and it is possibly important to connect different aspects of the tourist economy into a unified plan for development. However, linking the so-called five unique features does not create an economic synergy.

Taiwan Ask Me is a free information service. It does not make money or use money to link things together to form economic relationships. Even a government minister should recognize that specious phrases reveal fake values.

For the fifth anniversary event, “Eunice LIN,” (which should be “Eunice Lin,”) “is invited to be the tour guide, and experience the friendliness of ‘Taiwan Ask Me.” This sentence means that Ms Lin is going act as a tourist guide and experience for herself the friendly services of the Information Stations. More absurd nonsense, for why would she be both the tourist guide and the tourist?

Furthermore, the ministry should take responsibility for inviting Ms Lin. Instead of writing “Eunice LIN, a popular TV personality, is invited,” the correct sentence would be: “The MOTC has invited Eunice Lin, a popular TV personality, to be a tour guide.”

Finally, Ms Lin may be a local celebrity, but she is a Taiwanese film and television actor, not a TV personality. The latter is someone who appears on TV as herself, perhaps as the host of a variety show, but not someone who appears as characters in films or a TV series. (“Actor” refers to either male or female, the distinction “actress” being no longer necessary.)

The next sentence in the article is so riddled with grammatical errors, it would take several more paragraphs to explain them all. Suffice it to say that much of what the sentence tries to say means the opposite of what it must intend, which is the major problem with the article in question, especially its conclusion.

The advertisement closes with an egregious insult to all foreign residents and tourists.

Setting aside the grammatical errors and confusing phrasing, the advertisement announces the “Hi Taiwan! Give Me 5 Point Collection Campaign,” which started on Oct. 1.

However, this campaign is only for “all citizens of Taiwan [who] are invited to visit Information Stations and get a taste of the warm and friendly services of ‘Taiwan Ask Me.’”

Apparently, foreign tourists are not allowed to “experience in-depth local travels” and only “citizens will also get an opportunity to win lovely prizes!”

Who in the world is this advertisement for? It would seem to be for foreign tourists and residents since it is in English and appears in the only English print newspaper published in Taiwan. And what citizen of Taiwan needs to read an English advertisement? Surely, any citizen of Taiwan can read all about “Taiwan Ask Me” in Chinese. And yet, this advertisement about a tourism service concludes by disinviting the foreign residents and tourists who are not only most likely to read the advertisement, but also most likely to benefit from the Taiwan Ask Me initiative.

With this appalling advertisement, the ministry makes a mockery of not only the government’s attempts to use English effectively but also its own ministerial responsibility over communication and tourism in Taiwan.

If the Taiwanese government does have the personnel to compose articles in correct English that do not insult English readers and tourists and perhaps visiting foreign dignitaries, then it should hire copy editors with the skills to do it for them. It is certainly worth the expense when compared to the embarrassing cost of losing face, which means so much to Taiwanese society.

Finally, Premier Lai, how can Taiwan effectively pursue the valuable and challenging goal of making English an official language of this country if the ROC government’s own ministries are not even able to correctly compose a simple advertisement in English?

What a conundrum, and where does one begin to solve it?

Respectfully yours,

Xue Meng-ren
