The hit movie Notting Hill(《诺丁山》)begins with a famous scene. Hugh Grant bumps into Julia Roberts and spills(洒)orange juice all over her. After the collision(碰撞), Grant repeatedly says, “I am so sorry. I am so sorry. ”
His behavior in this scene is very British. If Roberts’ character was from Britain then she would probably apologize repeatedly as well—even if the collision was not her fault. But this doesn’t happen in the film, as Roberts is from the US.
A report in The Telegraph last week said that three quarters of British people apologize when they bump into someone in the street—regardless of whether they are responsible or not. In fact, we Britons use“sorry”in many situations. For example, if we mishear someone, we say“Sorry?”The person we are talking to will also apologize by replying, “No, I am sorry!”This can go on for up to five minutes as we compete over who is the most sorry.
