哼唧

´I want to go home,´ whined Toby.

“我要回家。”托比哼哼唧唧地说。

Like one of the kids, he whined and pouted when he did not get what he wanted.

他若没有得到他想要的，就会像孩子一般又是哼唧又是撅嘴。

“Mm, ” the old woman groaned in a kind of nonhuman, metallic voice.

“嗯哪，”老太太以一种非人的、金属般的声音哼唧着。

I would be criticised, and rightly so, if Adan suddenly had to come on one day without having had any playing time previously.

哼唧……如果有一天、在之前没有一点上场经验的情况下，我的替补门将突然被赶鸭子上架，那我当然活该被骂。

Imagine that your oldest kids are fighting…again. Or, your youngest just spilled his juice box on the floor. Or, your daughter is whining that life is ´not fair. ´´

想象一下，你最大的孩子又在打架；或者你最小的孩子在地板上打翻了果汁；又或者你的女儿在哼唧着抱怨生活“不公平”。
