valet 专八

The gentleman had a valet to wait on him hand and foot.

这位绅士有一个男仆照衣食住行。

"and the name of the jesting valet, Zanni(or zany ), is used to describe any comic "cutup", on the stage or off. "

今天人们还用剧中插科打诨男仆扎尼名字来指剧中或生活中滑稽可笑事。

but if your father is sick unto death, you'll send away the valet and wait on your father yourself with your awkward, unpractised hands, and be more comfort to him than a skilful man who's a stranger.

但是假如你父亲病得要死了，你就得把仆人撵走，亲自笨手笨脚地侍候你父亲，你会比那个熟练，然而却是一个外国人仆人更能安慰。
