※ 引述《shellyself (零)》之銘言：

: 自已逐字翻是泡泡不會成功經過打嗝，完全不知所云！
: 那些氣泡都逃不過打嗝的命運

我是謝忠理，對於 60-Second Science 上這句話的意思理解，說一
下我的解析方式：
============================================================
原則：
翻譯文章，首先是要將英文看懂，然後轉換成對應的中文表達，最後
如果有需要，修飾一下中文。
============================================================
有單字不會的，就先查字典。原文中的 make it 和 past the belch
可能看不懂，拿出字典，配合這些字在文章中的詞性，查到如下的定義：
------------------------------------------------------------
來自 Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary 11th Edition
※ make it
phrasal
1.
a. : to be successful [成功]
<trying to make it in the big time as a fashion photographer — Joe Kane>
b. : to be satisfactory or pleasing [令人滿意]
<if it isn't danceable, it doesn't make it for me — Judy Hyman>
2. : to have sexual intercourse
3. : survive, live [存活]
<half the cubs won't make it through their first year>
------------------------------------------------------------
※ past
II. preposition 介系詞
Date: 14th century
1.
a. : beyond the age for or of [(年齡等)超過…, 逾…)]
<past playing with dolls>
b. : after [(時間)超過…; 過了(…分鐘)(((美))after)]
<half past two>
2.
a. : at the farther side of : beyond [在 <某場所> 的前方, 在經過…的地方]
b. : in a course or direction going close to and then beyond
[經過 <場所、人等>]
<drove past the house>
3. obsolete : more than
4. : beyond the capacity, range, or sphere of [超出, 超越]
<past belief>
============================================================
根據字典上多個定義，找出合理的前後文搭配意義：
make it 存活
past the belch 通過/經過 打嗝
============================================================
轉換英文為中文：
"He says most of those bubbles never make it past the belch."
粗略的中文意思：他說 大部分的那些氣泡 無法存活 經過打嗝
修飾後中文表達：
「他說，大部分的那些氣泡，在經過打嗝之後，都沒法留下來。」
至於大陸網站上翻譯：
「那些氣泡都逃不過打嗝的命運。」
是經過再一層的意思理解後整理出來的文字。
============================================================
以上過程，提供大家當個參考。
