英語笑話:Is this a Promise or Threat 是許諾還是威脅
"My friend, I say I had some trouble." A man said to his friend, "Yesterday I had words with（爭吵） my wife. After that she punched the door and rushed out angrily with the word that she would live with her mother. Please help me. Is this a promise or a threat?""Do you think there are differences between the two?" his friend asked."Yes, quite a lot. If it is a promise, that means that my wife is sure to be with her mother, and if a threat, that my mother-in-law will move and live with us."“聽我說，朋友，我遇上麻煩了。”一個男人對他的朋友說，“昨天我和妻子吵了一架，她怒氣衝衝地摔門走了，並宣稱說她要和她母親住在一起。你替我想想，這是許諾，還是威脅呢？”“這兩者有什麼區別嗎？”朋友問。“不，區別太大了。如果它是承諾的話，那就是說它肯定是要和她媽媽一起住；要是威脅呢，那就意味着我岳母要搬到我家來住。”
