杜特爾特宣佈不再罵髒話 稱上帝已對其示警

Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte, known for his -- ahem -- colorful language, swears he's going to stop swearing.

以“豐富多彩”的語言而著稱的菲律賓總統羅德里格·杜特爾特，近日發誓說他再也不罵粗話了。

The inspiration for cleaning up his vocabulary came from God himself, Duterte said, as he was flying back to the Philippines from a state visit to Japan.

杜特爾特表示，這是在他對日本進行國事訪問後飛回菲律賓時從上帝那裏得來的啓示。

"Everybody was asleep, snoring, but a voice said...'If you don't stop (cursing), I will bring this plane down now.' And I said, 'Who is this?' So, of course, it's God," the President recounted after he landed at Davao International Airport.

這位總統在達沃國際機場降落後敘述稱：“當時所有人都在睡覺，打呼嚕，突然一個聲音說道：'你要是再這樣口無遮攔罵下去，我就讓這架飛機墜毀'。我問道'誰在跟我說話'？當然，那是上帝。”。

"So I promised God not to express slang, cuss words and everything," said Duterte.

“所以我對上帝承諾，我再也不說那些俗語、粗話等等了。”杜特爾特說。

When those in attendance for his arrival speech began to applaud his declaration, he stopped them. "I might fail," he said

在杜特爾特抵達演講的現場，當聽衆在爲他的這個承諾開始鼓掌時，他制止了他們並說道：“有可能我還會爆粗口。”

Duterte's vernacular has grabbed global headlines for its lack of, well, decorum.

杜特爾特總是因爲他說的，呃，不加修飾的話而佔據全球媒體的頭條。

He infamously called both President Barack Obama and Pope Francis a "son of a bitch," declared that the U.S. ambassador to the Philippines was a "gay son of a bitch" -- adding that the ambassador had "pissed him off" -- and told the European Union to "fuck off," accompanied by the universally understood hand gesture.

他曾罵美國總統巴拉克·奧巴馬以及教皇弗朗西斯是“婊子養的” ，說美駐菲大使是個“婊子養的娘娘腔”，還說這位大使讓他“很不爽”；還曾一邊比出那個世人都懂的手勢一邊說要歐盟“滾開”。

Now the question long can he keep his promise, dammit?

那麼問題來了...這位總統能TMD遵守這個承諾多長時間？
