Dilu: 你好， 我是Dilu。欢迎收听中文播客，中级课程。
John: Today we've got a lesson about a special function of some cell phone, but this can also be extended to other areas of life.
Dilu: 对。我们今天讲黑名单。黑名单。
John: Literally that's 'black name list'.

John: So let's listen to the dialog.

John: 追求, 1st-2nd, that's a verb meaning 'to pursue'.
Dilu: 没错。第一声和第二声。追求。那追求者就是追求你的人。喜欢你的人。
John: It sounds 'stalkery', is it?
Dilu: 不是。应该是对你有好感。然后你也认识的人。
John: Someone who's pursuing you - a pursuer. But its not that, right?
Dilu: 不是。是一个销售。

John: 销售 - that means 'salesperson'.
Dilu: 是的。第一声和第四声。销售。
John: So its the same word for 'sales' in general as it is for 'salesperson'.
Dilu: 没错。这个动词和名词是一样的。销售的人和销售。 这个动作就是一样。
John: 销售 - 1st tone, 4th tone. Then what does the guy say?
Dilu: 那你不接不就行了？那你不接不就行了？
John: So notice the end - its like this rhetorical question. What have you tacked on the end?

Dilu: 什么什么...不就行了。不就行了。
John: Its kind of like in English when you say 'Why don't you just ...'. 'The solution is so simple - just do this'.
Dilu: 对的。它是一个发问句。［加强］他的语气。就是这么简单。你［只要］这么做就可以了。
John: So first - solution - and then 不就行了.
Dilu: 比如说：你说这个东西这么贵，那别人会说：那你不买，不就行了。
John: Like all the people complaining about the new iPhone being expensive - 'so just don't buy it'.

Dilu: 对。还有人说：啊呀我［zhang pao ??］了。And the guys will probably say: 那你不吃，不就行了。
John: 'Stop eating'. Ok, that's pretty clear. Then what does the girl say?
Dilu: 就算不接，经常打来也很烦的。
John: 'Even if I don't answer, him calling me all the time is still annoying'. How do we say 'even if'?
Dilu: 这里有一个结构，叫：就算...什么什么...也...什么什么。

John: 就算, that's two 4th tones.
Dilu: 对。两个第四声。就算。
John: So: 就算 - some kind of situation - and then 也.
Dilu: 就算不接，经常打来也很烦的。
John: So: 就算 - you do this - 也 - its still that way.
Dilu: 对对对。这个男的又有另外一个suggestion。他说：那你把他的号码加入黑名单。把他的号码加入黑名单。

John: Here we have the 把 pattern. You take something and you do something with it.
Dilu: 没错。
John: He's saying take what?
Dilu: 把他的号码加入黑名单。
John: 'Take his number and add it to a blacklist'.
Dilu: 对。这是一个［典型］的把［字／子］句。把号码加入黑名单。
John: 加入, 1st tone - 4th tone, that means to 'add into', 'to add to'.
Dilu: 是的。
John: And its a little bit formal. Its not a word that you use in everyday conversations. But the reason its a little formal is because that's what the actual cellphone will say in its menu.
