我以前从来不觉得入殓师是一个很体面的工作。
Jaco: An embalmer? Is it a real job? You didn’t make it up, did you? It’s not funny.
入殓师?真是一份工作吗?你不是在瞎掰吧。这不好笑。
Jean: They prepare the dead for burial.
他们是为死人准备葬礼。
Jaco: What a creepy job! Isn’t it scary to deal with the dead? Maybe they would wake up.
这工作也忒邪门儿了吧。跟死尸打交道，有点害怕。可能他们会醒的啊。
Jean: Don’t you think it’s a holy job? People will die sooner or later. No exception. Even if you are a zombie, you have to die first.
你不觉得那是一份很神圣的工作吗?人总会死的。无一例外。即便你是僵尸，你也得先死。
Jaco: Stop saying that for God’s sake! You are getting on my nerves.
拜托，不要再说了。你让我心烦。
Jean: They wash the body with germicidal soap and dry it. They spruce up the body as well to give the face a lifelike appearance.
他们用杀菌肥皂擦身体然后擦干。他们也给死者化妆打扮，为了能让他们看起来跟生前一样栩栩如生。
Jaco: Sounds humane! But I bet their wives don’t like their hands that touch the dead every day.
听上去很人性化。但是我相信他们的妻子应该不怎么喜欢天天接触死尸的手吧。
Jean: Show some respect! When I die, don’t you want to spruce me up? Isn’t it ironic that the last thing people buy for themselves is decided by someone else? When I die, I just need an ordinary coffin. I don’t like anything fancy. Keep that in mind!
尊重点儿好不好?我死了，你不想打扮我吗?人买的最后一件东西得要别人来决定，不觉得这很讽刺吗?如果我死了，我只需要一个普通棺材。我不喜欢奢华的东西。记住了啊!
Jaco: Honey, can we talk about anything but death, coffins? We are in the middle of a dinner.
亲爱的，我们可以谈谈别的吗?只要不是死啊，棺材之类的。我们还在吃晚饭呢。
