【No. 0018】Linear Relationship

Jan 5, 2015 23:34
Today, I dictated the dialogues of the "Frozen" as with yesterday.

3 hours after I started, just 80% of the all dialogues were completed.

In other words, it took 3 hours to complete 30% today.

Also, it took 5 hours to complete 50% yesterday.

Oh, I found a beautiful linear relationship between required time and progress rate.

It can be easily estimated that I need further 2 hours to complete dictation.

But today, there was one thing that I couldn't understand even using my dictionaries.

Kristoff said "feisty-pants" to Anna.

Wha..what's the "pants"? Are the pants that pants?

I thought it means something like "feisty baby" judging from that situation.

However, I have no idea why "pants".

I would be happy if you could help me.

"feisty-pants" is a spin off of a phrase "smarty-pants" :) calling someone a "smarty-pants" can be teasing or insulting depending on context, but usually teasing :) i'm sure there are many other "-pants" phrases.
