SUBTITLE: The queen`s two birthdays.

two birthdays days all the way back to George II in 1748. His real birth, it was in November, and he thought they might get cold and they might get ailed. So, I`m going to move it to June, where fingers crossed, the weather is going better.

兩個(gè)的生日要追溯到1748年喬治二世。喬治二世的生日是在11月份，他認(rèn)為人們會(huì)受冷挨凍。所以，他決定將生日定為六月，因?yàn)槟菚r(shí)人開始祈禱，同時(shí)天氣變暖。

So, the queen`s real birthday, 21st of April, 1926, when she was born. That celebrated with a quiet family celebration and she has her official birthday, usually second Saturday in June, and what we have is trooping the colour, big parades, big celebration, the queen in her carriage, all based in London here at Buckingham Palace.

伊麗莎白二世出生于1926年4月21日。在那一天，她會(huì)有家庭成員慶祝自己的生日，但是其官方生日在6月的第二個(gè)星期六，那一天將會(huì)舉行皇家樂隊(duì)閱兵儀式、大游行以及盛大的慶典活動(dòng)，女王坐在馬車中。

But this year, because she`s 90, she has a birthday in May as well, and that`s going to be much more fun, pop concerts, more shows. So we have three birthdays, actual birthday, the official birthday, and the fun birthday.

但是，今年，伊麗莎白二世女王90歲了，她的生日在五月，因此會(huì)有更多的樂趣，流行音樂會(huì)還有表演。因此，將會(huì)有三個(gè)生日：伊麗莎白二世女王的真實(shí)生日、官方生日以及這個(gè)有趣的生日。

And it`s not just in Britain that the queen`s birthday celebrated. It`s across the commonwealth, including in Canada, where it`s a public holiday and Australia, where it defers according to where you are.

不只是英國女王在慶祝生日，甚至整個(gè)聯(lián)邦，包括加拿大還有澳大利亞。

Some people are saying she`s 90, it could be the last big birthday. But her mother did live to 101. So, hopefully, we`re going to be celebrating a big 100th birthday in 2026.

有些人說現(xiàn)在伊麗莎白二世已經(jīng)90歲，這可能是最后一個(gè)盛大的生日了。但是她的母親活到了101歲。所以，我們希望在2026年，我們將會(huì)為她舉辦盛大的100歲壽辰生日。
