Apple launched its new iPhone 7 last week.
蘋(píng)果公司上個(gè)星期發(fā)布了新款的蘋(píng)果7。

This time, the company is using the slogan "This is 7".
這次,蘋(píng)果公司用的標(biāo)語(yǔ)是:”這就是7”。

It's quite dull. But over in Hong Kong, where Cantonese is spoken, the phrase a little more interesting.
非常無(wú)趣吧。但是在香港,這個(gè)說(shuō)粵語(yǔ)的地方,這句話(huà)變得很有意思。

Well, the US site Quartz explains that in Hong Kong, “seven,” or "柒", is pronounced "chat", and is also slang for “penis.”
美國(guó)網(wǎng)站的Quartz解釋說(shuō),在香港,“7”或者“柒”發(fā)音是“chat”的發(fā)音, 這個(gè)發(fā)音跟俚語(yǔ)“【嗶——】”的發(fā)音一樣。

"This is penis". Well played, Apple.
“這是penis(你們都懂得==)”。玩的好,蘋(píng)果。

Fortunately, chat isn't very offensive. It's used for the purposes of banter – friends might say "ha, you are so seven" if they see their friend say something stupid on Tinder, for example.People in Hong Kong are already laughing at Apple's new iPhone slogan.

幸好,“chat”的發(fā)音并沒(méi)有什么冒犯的意思。它經(jīng)常用于開(kāi)玩笑——比如,如果他們看見(jiàn)他們的朋友說(shuō)了很蠢的話(huà),他們可能會(huì)說(shuō)“哈,你太7了”。香港的人們已經(jīng)在嘲笑蘋(píng)果這個(gè)新標(biāo)語(yǔ)了。

On one Facebook post about the Chinese translations, one local mocked: “Without a 3.5mm earbud jack, this is exactly penis!".
在facebook上發(fā)布了一個(gè)有關(guān)中文的翻譯,一個(gè)當(dāng)?shù)厝顺靶φf(shuō):“沒(méi)有3.5mm耳機(jī)接口,這真是太【嗶——】了!”
