烏克蘭總統澤倫斯基近日訪問白宮,與美國總統川普會面,原計劃簽署礦產協議,卻因爭執不歡而散。澤倫斯基事後拒向川普道歉,但似乎對公開爭吵感到後悔,並表示仍願簽署協議。看CNN學「後悔」與「道歉」多種英文表達方式!

川普澤倫斯基激烈口角!對不起、後悔英文怎麼說?
以下節錄兩段澤倫斯基受福斯新聞首席政治主播布萊特·拜爾專訪的內容:
澤倫斯基福斯專訪節錄-1
Zelenskyy said it was important that Ukraine, the U.S. and Europe maintain their great partnership in the face of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s aggression.
澤倫斯基(Volodymyr Zelenskyy)表示,面對俄羅斯總統普丁(Vladimir Putin)的侵略,烏克蘭、美國和歐洲維持良好的夥伴關係至關重要。
But when asked if he feels he should apologize for the heated discussions that erupted in the Oval Office, which began after Vance accused Zelenskyy of being “disrespectful,” the Ukrainian leader said “no.”
但當被問及自己是否該為范斯(JD Vance)指控澤倫斯基「不尊重」美國後,在白宮爆發激烈爭執的事道歉,這位烏克蘭領袖表示「沒有」。
“I respect the president, and I respect the American people,” he said. “I’m not sure that we did something bad.”
「我尊重(川普)總統,也尊重美國人民,」他說。「我不確定我們有做錯事。」
澤倫斯基福斯專訪節錄-2
“Mr. President, do you think your relationship with Donald Trump — President Trump — after today can be salvaged?” Fox News chief political anchor Bret Baier asked Zelenskyy.
「總統先生,您認為今天之後,您與川普總統的關係還能挽回嗎?」福斯新聞首席政治主播拜爾(Bret Baier)在專訪中問澤倫斯基。
“Yes, of course, because it’s relations more than two presidents. It’s the historical relations, strong relations between our people, and that’s why I always began… to thank your people from our people,” Zelenskyy said during an exclusive interview Friday on “Special Report.”
「當然可以,因為這不僅是兩位總統之間的關係,還是我們人民之間的歷史性、牢固的關係,這就是為什麼我總是從感謝你們的人民開始…來自我們人民的感謝。」澤倫斯基在週五的《特別報告》獨家訪問中說。
“Of course, thankful to the president, and, of course, to Congress, but first of all, to your people. Your people helped save our people… we wanted very much to have all these strong relations, and where it counted, we will have it.”
「當然感謝總統,也感謝國會,但最重要的是感謝你們的人民。你們的人民幫助拯救了我們的人民…我們非常希望維持這些強大的關係,並且在關鍵時刻,還能保持這樣的關係。」
Zelenskyy said he was “not sure that we did something bad” when asked about the heated exchange but conceded the dustup was “bad for both sides.”
澤倫斯基在被問及激烈爭執時說,他「不確定我們做錯什麼」,但承認這場爭吵對雙方都不利。
