Hi.

Can anyone here help me with this audio (from Fox News podcast)? I could not understand why the lady said "watch your language" (at 0:21), Does the man used the word "solid" (at 0:19) that offends? Many thanks!

It's an advertisement for some app (netsuite): a playlet in which the
characters react to the name of the app's competitor (quickbook? It's
partly obscured) as if it were an obscenity. All in fun, of course.

Many thanks to CDB!

May I know more about "quickbook xxx"?

To put it another way, how could a translator do his job on this advertisement?

Best,
Kevin

I got it after using "quickbooks" and "porn" as key words to do a google search.

Many thanks indeed! It baffled me quite a while.

Best,
Kevin

Happy to help.

I'm afraid I wouldn't have been much help with "Quickbook".

It has absolutely nothing to do with porn. Quickbooks and Netsuite are
competing bookkeeping/accounting programs. It's much as if the
conversation went:

Her: Hey, I just found a great new search website called Google.
Him: I use "Yahoo" myself (not trying to *beep* any part of it out to
avoid confusion.)
Her: Watch your LANGUAGE!!!!!

And it's a play on how a real conversation might go:

Her: I has sexual intercourse last night with my husband.
Him: I f***ed my wife this morning at breakfast.
Her: Watch your LANGUAGE!!!!!
