"My friend, I say I had some trouble." A man said to his friend, "Yesterday I had words with(争吵) my wife. After that she punched1 the door and rushed out angrily with the word that she would live with her mother. Please help me. Is this a promise or a threat?"
"Do you think there are differences between the two?" his friend asked.
"Yes, quite a lot. If it is a promise, that means that my wife is sure to be with her mother, and if a threat, that my mother-in-law will move and live with us."
“听我说,朋友,我遇上麻烦了。”一个男人对他的朋友说,“昨天我和妻子吵了一架,她怒气冲冲地摔门走了,并宣称说她要和她母亲住在一起。你替我想想,这是许诺,还是威胁呢?”
“这两者有什么区别吗?”朋友问。
“不,区别太大了。如果它是承诺的话,那就是说它肯定是要和她妈妈一起住;要是威胁呢,那就意味着我岳母要搬到我家来住。”
