Friendships

This time, about how we got a ticket to get out of there, how we escaped the curfew, how they didn't want to put us up and how I ended up in Ezeiza (Argentina's main airport) on top of a bus with people I didn't know.

ABOUT HOW I LIVED IN AUSTRALIA, WENT ON HOLIDAY IN SRI LANKA AND ENDS UP IN ARGENTINA: CHRONICLE OF A PANDEMIC - Part 2.

第十章：变老
我的朋友带着他的小羊已经离去六年了。
Six years have already passed since my friend went away from me, with his sheep.
我之所以在这里尽力把他描写出来，就是为了不要忘记他。
If I try to describe him here, it is to make sure that I shall not forget him.
忘记一个朋友，这太叫人悲伤了。
To forget a friend is sad.
并不是所有的人都有过一个朋友。
Not every one has had a friend.
再说，我也可能变成那些大人那样，只对数字感兴趣。
And if I forget him, I may become like the grown-ups who are no longer interested in anything but figures...
也正是为了这个缘故，我买了一盒颜料和一些铅笔。
It is for that purpose, again, that I have bought a box of paints and some pencils.
像我这样年纪的人，
It is hard to take up drawing again at my age,
而且除了六岁时画过闭着肚皮的和开着肚皮的巨蟒外，别的什么也没有尝试过，现在，重新再来画画，真费劲啊！
when I have never made any pictures except those of the boa constrictor from the outside and the boa constrictor from the inside, since I was six.
当然，我一定要把这些画尽量地画得逼真，
I shall certainly try to make my portraits as true to life as possible.
但我自己也没有把握。
But I am not at all sure of success.

一张画得还可以，另一张就不像了。
One drawing goes along all right, and another has no resemblance to its subject.


还有身材大小，我画得有点不准确。在这个地方小王子画得太大了些，另一个地方又画得太小了些。
I make some errors, too, in the little prince's height: in one place he is too tall and in another too short.


对他衣服的颜色我也拿不准。
And I feel some doubts about the color of his costume.
于是我就摸索着这么试试那么改改，画了个大概。
So I fumble along as best I can, now good, now bad, and I hope generally fair-to-middling.
我很可能在某些重要的细节上画错了。
In certain more important details I shall make mistakes, also.
这就得请大家原谅我了。
But that is something that will not be my fault.
因为我的这个朋友，从来也不加说明解释。
My friend never explained anything to me.
他认为我同他一样。
He thought, perhaps, that I was like himself.
可是，很遗憾，我却不能透过盒子看见小羊。
But I, alas, do not know how to see sheep through the walls of boxes.
我大概有点和大人们差不多。
Perhaps I am a little like the grown-ups.
我一定是变老了。
I have had to grow old.

“꼼짝 마!”

꼼짝 마가 뭐예요? What is 꼼짝 마? 

"꼼짝" is a kind of mimetic word meaning a sluggish and slow movement. 
And when the imperative ending "-아" is added to the verb "말다", it becomes "마".
So if we put things together, 
“꼼짝 마”
Don’t do any slow movement! Don’t move! Freeze!

Especially in K-dramas, police officers often use this expression toward criminals.

무슨 말인지 알겠어요? You got it?
