[00:01.34]	Hi and welcome to The English We Speak. Today we're having an office party with the whole BBC Learning English team.
[00:08.59]	And we're eating some delicious cakes and pies that Jen has baked for us. Have you tried the apple tart?
[00:14.88]	Mmm, it's so tasty. Jen really has a lot of different skills, doesn't she?
[00:19.72]	Yeah, she really gets involved in lots of different activities.
[00:24.70]	She's always organising different parties, goes rowing, and did you know she works as a weather presenter at the weekend?
[00:33.50]	And she's a good cook too. This blueberry crumble is delicious. She really does have a finger in every pie.
[00:41.70]	Ugh, really? I mean they taste good, but now I know she puts her fingers in them. I think I've just lost my appetite.
[00:51.35]	That's not what I meant when I said she has a finger in every pie. It means she gets involved in a lot of different things.
[00:58.95]	So someone has a finger in every pie when they're involved in different activities? Is it a good thing then?
[01:06.63]	Well, in this case, when I said Jen has a finger in every pie, I meant it as a good thing.
[01:12.50]	But it can sometimes suggest someone gets involved in things when they shouldn't.
[01:17.64]	So it can be a good or a bad thing. Let's have a look at some examples.
[01:23.12]	If you need any information just ask Annabel. She has a finger in every pie and always knows the answer.
[01:29.29]	At work I'm a teacher but I also do some accounting and organise the end-of-term play. I like to have a finger in every pie.
[01:38.36]	I can't seem to do anything without him being there. Yesterday I went to the photography club and he was there.
[01:45.21]	Well, unfortunately he does have a finger in every pie.
[01:49.73]	So if someone gets involved in too many different things and people disapprove of this, it can be used as a criticism.
[01:57.95]	Yes, and Shakespeare used it in his play Henry VIII.
[02:02.50]	In the play it's used as a criticism of someone who gets involved in everything when he shouldn't.
[02:07.73]	No man's pie is freed from his ambitious finger.
[02:12.93]	So the person criticised here feels the need to put his "ambitious finger" in every single pie that's baked to taste them all.
[02:21.71]	Yes, which means he gets involved in things he shouldn't.
[02:25.57]	But Shakespeare used the expression in a slightly different way from how we use it today.
[02:30.92]	Now we just say someone has a finger in every pie.
[02:34.87]	Yes, it's slightly less poetic than "no man's pie is freed from his ambitious finger".
[02:41.27]	Well, this is all very interesting, but I haven't tried the peach pie yet.
[02:48.27]	Well, no pie is freed from Helen's greedy fingers, is it? Only joking, Helen.

歌词翻译

[00:01.34]	嗨，欢迎来到我们讲英语的人。今天，我们正在与整个英国广播公司英语学习小组举办办公室派对。
[00:08.59]	我们正在吃一些Jen为我们烘焙的美味蛋糕和馅饼。你尝试过苹果挞吗？
[00:14.88]	嗯，真好吃。仁真的有很多不同的技能，不是吗？
[00:19.72]	是的，她真的参与了很多不同的活动。
[00:24.70]	她总是组织不同的派对，如划船，并且你知道她在周末作为天气预报员工作吗？
[00:33.50]	她也是一个好厨师。这蓝莓碎得很好吃。她的每一个馅饼都真有意思。
[00:41.70]	呃，真的吗？我的意思是它们味道很好，但现在我知道她把手指放进去了。我想我的食欲不振了。
[00:51.35]	当我说她每个馅饼都有手指时，这并不是我的意思。这意味着她参与了很多不同的事情。
[00:58.95]	所以当每个人参与不同的活动时，每个人都有一个手指？那是好事吗？
[01:06.63]	那么，在这种情况下，当我说仁在每一个馅饼都有一个手指时，我的意思是这是一件好事。
[01:12.50]	但它有时可能暗示有人在不应该的时候参与到事情中。
[01:17.64]	所以这可能是一件好事或坏事。我们来看看一些例子。
[01:23.12]	如果您需要任何信息，请询问Annabel。她每个馅饼都有一个手指，并且总是知道答案。
[01:29.29]	在工作中，我是一名教师，但我也做一些会计和组织期末游戏。我喜欢吃每一块馅饼
[01:38.36]	没有他，我似乎无法做任何事情。昨天我去了摄影俱乐部，他在那里。
[01:45.21]	好吧，不幸的是，他确实在每个馅饼都有一个手指。
[01:49.73]	因此，如果有人卷入了太多不同的事情，人们不赞成这一点，它可以被用作批评。
[01:57.95]	是的，莎士比亚在他的剧本亨利八世中用它。
[02:02.50]	在这部剧中，它被用来批评那些在不应该参与的情况下参与其中的人。
[02:07.73]	没有人的馅饼从他雄心勃勃的手指中解放出来。
[02:12.93]	所以在这里被批评的人觉得有必要把他的“雄心勃勃的手指”放在每一个烤出来的馅饼中来品尝它们。
[02:21.71]	是的，这意味着他参与了他不应该做的事情。
[02:25.57]	但莎士比亚用这种表达方式与我们今天的使用方式略有不同。
[02:30.92]	现在我们说每个人都有一个手指。
[02:34.87]	是的，它比“没有人的馅饼从他的雄心勃勃的手指中解放出来”略显诗意。
[02:41.27]	好吧，这一切都很有趣，但我还没有尝试过桃饼。
[02:48.27]	那么，海伦贪婪的手指没有馅饼，是吗？只有开玩笑，海伦。
