shin脛骨，umptieth第無(wú)數(shù)次的

【笑話(huà)原文】

What Position Do You Play?

After I had injured one of my shins for the umptieth time, my doctor suggested I wear some sort of protection. Remembering the shin guards I wore when I played soccer over 60 years ago, I went to a sporting goods store. I’m a petite, elderly woman, so when a young man came to help me, I said, “Don’t laugh, but I’m looking for a pair of shin guards for soccer.” “Okay,” he said with a completely straight face. “What position do you play?”

【中文譯文】

你是踢什么位置的?

在我無(wú)數(shù)次傷到一根脛骨以后，醫(yī)生建議我采取一些保護(hù)措施。我記得六十多年前提足球時(shí)戴過(guò)的護(hù)脛，就到一家體育用品商店去。我是一個(gè)瘦小的老太太。所以，當(dāng)一個(gè)年輕小伙子過(guò)來(lái)招呼我的時(shí)候，我對(duì)他說(shuō)：“不要笑話(huà)我。我要買(mǎi)一副踢足球用的護(hù)脛。”他非常嚴(yán)肅地說(shuō)：“你是踢什么位置的?”
