Gibraltarian

英語[編輯]

Gibraltarian (比較級 more Gibraltarian，最高級 most Gibraltarian)

直布羅陀的
- 2013, Simon Jenkins, Gibraltar and the Falklands deny the logic of history (in The Guardian, 14 August 2013)[1]
  The curse has been Spanish ineptitude feeding Gibraltarian intransigence. Border hold-ups are counterproductive to winning hearts and minds, as were blundering Argentinian landings on the outer Falklands.
  詛咒在於，西班牙的無能助長了直布羅陀不妥協的意願。邊境封鎖不但沒有贏得人心，還起了反作用，就像當年阿根廷在福克蘭群島外圍的錯誤登陸一樣。

  The idea of a British warship supposedly menacing Spain is ludicrous. Is it meant to bomb Cadiz? Will its guns lift a rush-hour tailback in a colony that most Britons regard as awash with tax dodgers, drug dealers and right-wing whingers? The Gibraltarians have rights, but why British taxpayers should send warships to enforce them, even if just "on exercise", is a mystery.
  一艘英國軍艦怎麼會對西班牙造成威脅呢，這個想法真是可笑。它是要轟炸加的斯嗎？它的炮火會在直布羅陀，這個被大多數英國人視為充斥着逃稅者、毒販和發牢騷的右翼者的殖民地，掀起一陣「高峰期的長隊」嗎？直布羅陀人有權利，但為什麼英國的納稅人要派軍艦去執行這些權利，即使只是「演習」，也是一個謎。
