A husband had always been disdainful of people who, in his estimation, talk too much. Recently he proudly told his wife he'd heard that men use 2200 words a day, while women use 4400.
丈夫很瞧不起那些话多的人,最近他自豪地对他的妻子说,他听说男人每天说2200字,而女人每天要说4400字。
The wife pondered that a moment, then concluded, "That's because women have to repeat everything they say to their husbands."
妻子思考了一会儿,然后说,“因为女人不管对她们的丈夫说什么,都得说好几遍。”
He looked up and asked, "Come again?"
他抬起头,问,“能再说一遍吗?
