[第438次听写]"赡养费"的英文该用哪个单词好？

我是Wind, 原生活大爆炸和神探夏洛克字幕组组长.我每天早上听写60秒美剧, 已经坚持1年多了. 每天60秒, 直接啃生肉~

本期我们听美剧《我们这一天》

语言点讲解

5-6 My dad’s constantly pressuring my mom to marry her boyfriend. If she marries Monty, then, my dad doesn’t have to pay alimony anymore. It’s a whole thing.
我爸爸不停地向我妈妈施压, 想让她和她男友结婚. 如果她跟Monty结婚, 那么我爸爸就不需要再支付赡养费了. 一大堆事情

pressure sb to do sth=向某人施加压力, 使其做某事
Monty=人名 ['mɑnti]

doesn’t词末t失爆, 读作[ˈdʌzn]
dad doesn’t辅辅连读, 省前读后, 读作[dæ ˈdʌzn]

alimony vs child support
都是法庭要求离婚的夫妇一方向另外一方支付的费用
child support是指孩子的抚养费, 但alimony在比较宽泛
alimony读音是/ˈæləˌmoʊni/

it’s a whole thing没有生词, 但其实是一个陌生的短语
英文解释为A complicated situation; something that causes a dispute
例句为Ugh, I forgot to invite Penny to the party, and now it’s a whole thing.
注意it’s the whole thing表示xxx整个一件事, 而不仅仅是其中某部分, 意思不同
