亞由美:大家好,我是亞由美,來自巴西。
Katya: And I'm Katya from Bulgaria.
卡蒂亞:我是卡蒂亞,來自保加利亞。
Ayumi: Today's question is is it easier to be friends with men or women? How is it for you Katya?
亞由美:今天的問題是,和男性交朋友更容易還是和女性交朋友更容易?卡蒂亞,對你來說哪種比較容易?
Katya: I don't know. I think it's both. I can't decide which one is easier because I think sometimes I need my girlfriends to go drink coffee with them and sometimes I need the boys to talk about computers or some game or something or I would need advice from a guy. The same comes with my father and my mother. I think it's the same with my guy friends, I don't ask stuff that I would normally ask my father for and it's the same with my mom. I'm very friendly with guys because I have a brother, a big brother, so I'm very used to being around boys. But at the same time I do need my girlfriends. What about you?
卡蒂亞:我不知道。我覺得兩種都蠻容易的。我無法決定哪邊更容易,因為有時我需要女性朋友陪我喝咖啡,有時我需要男性朋友談電腦或是游戲之類的事情,我需要男性的建議。對我來說,我父親和我母親也是這樣。和男性朋友的情況一樣,有些事情我不會問我爸爸,而有些事情我不會問我媽媽。我對男性很友好,因為我有一個哥哥,所以我很習慣周圍有男生的生活。不過同時,我也需要女性朋友的陪伴。你呢?
Ayumi: I usually like judge people by their personality rather than sex. So I cannot say which one is easier. I think if you really get along with people well.
亞由美:通常我不會用性別來判斷人,而是會用性格來判斷。所以我不能說哪邊更容易。我認為,那要看是否能和他人友好相處。
Katya: It doesn't really matter.
卡蒂亞:性別不太重要。
Ayumi: It doesn't really matter but I like guy friends in particular, for example, going to drinks or dancing together, this kind of thing. It's really fun to go with. With the girls, different kind of stuff, for example shopping, drinking coffee.
亞由美:不太重要,不過像喝酒或跳舞這種事情,我更喜歡和男性朋友一起。和他們一起玩很開心。而我會和女性朋友一起去購物。
Katya: Talking about boys.
卡蒂亞:還有談論男生。
Ayumi: Yeah. So they have different kind of...
亞由美:對。他們有不同的……
Katya: It depends on the situation I think.
卡蒂亞:我想這要取決于具體情況。
