以下是完整對話內容:

A : What's the baby's name?

B : Marlon if it's a boy, Minnie if it's a girl.

A : As in Mouse?

B : As in my grandmother.

在這…「as in」的用法,我沒看過這麼用的…可以請英文達人說明嗎

我知道他們的對話內容是什麼…所以請不要只給我米尼鼠的翻譯,希望能從「文法」和「例句用法」來解釋。

謝謝 ^_^

To Kevin:
這是在Friends(美國影集:六人行)第一季第二集裡的對話內容,
場景是Ross和他的前女友(懷了Ross的孩子)在討論小孩的名字時的幽默對話,「A」就是Ross,「B」就是Ross的前女友Carol囉

To 冏典:
這樣的解說滿有道理的,我也是怎麼也查不到「as in」這種片語…
而這麼說來,「Mouse」是Disney的Mickey Mouse的簡稱,所以才大寫囉。
是否有其他看法或補充呢?

請問版主, 是否沒有其他的上下文了?
這段文字是屬於趣味或笑話之類嗎?

2007-06-25 07:54:12 補充:
版主您好:

先用中文說明一個狀況:
當我們介紹自己的名字時, 譬如說: [楊宗緯], [宗教的宗], [經緯度的緯]
後面那兩句要用英文表達的話, 就是:
[as in 宗教], [as in 經緯度].

舉一個英文的例子:
A: What's you name?(您的名字是...?)
B: Paris.
A: As in the celebrity?(就像很有名的那個人[的名字]?)
B: As in the city.(就像那個城市.)
*celebrity: 名人, 此指[Paris Hilton]巴莉斯希爾頓.
*the city: 此指法國巴黎[Paris]

所以您文中的對話意思是:
A : What's the baby's name?
你給小孩取什麼名字?
B : Marlon if it's a boy, Minnie if it's a girl.
男生就叫馬龍, 女生就叫米妮.
A : As in Mouse?
就像米老鼠(的名字)?
B : As in my grandmother.
就像我奶奶(的名字).

Carol的祖母就是叫米妮, 但是Ross並不喜歡這個會跟迪士尼卡通人物聯想在一起的名字, 所以會說[As in the Mouse].

文法上, 完整的說法是:
Minnieas it is in Minnie Mouse?
Minnieas it is in Minnie XXX (my granmother's name)

as在此是連接詞, 所以不要把as與in一起看.

Minnie as it is in Minnie Mouse?
Minnie as it is in Minnie XXX (my granmother's name)
