Today's key word is Commonwealth

Commonwealth 英联邦

The Commonwealth is an organization consisting of（组成） the United Kingdom and most of the countries that were previously under its rule.

Here is the definition from the official website of The British Monarchy: The Commonwealth is a voluntary (自愿的) association of 53 independent（独立的） countries, almost all of which

were formerly under British rule. 简单的说，英联邦就是当年日不落帝国的殖民地们一起组成的一个组织。英国女王Queen Elizabeth II 就是这个组织的带头大姐。

话说，当年腐国不腐的时候还是相当腻害滴。Last week, 女王召集各位小弟开了一个会。但就在这团结的大会，胜利的大会上，加拿大新任帅哥总理竟然调戏了女王奶奶。他是这样说的"On that cool day in April, seated next to you, was my father," 在那个寒冷的四月，曾坐在你身边的是我的father…

He “was your fourth Canadian prime minister. I am your twelfth. 他是你在位期间的第四任加拿大总理，而我！！！是第12个。"In 1947, you famously vowed（宣誓） that your whole life would be devoted to（奉献给） the service of the Commonwealth. You more than honored （光荣）your vow."

1947年的时候，你说你要为英联邦奉献终身。60多年过去了，我才发现，你是认真的。我想说，帅哥总理哥哥，你当女王傻啊，你这摆明了说人家老嘛！超长待机这件事儿，是你随随便便就能提的吗？女王这90多年是白当领导的吗？

Queen Elizabeth II 在twitter上@this Canadian Prime Minister. She said: "Thank you, @JustinTrudeau, for making me feel so old!"

他赶忙发了一条twit，赶快开始找补~“On the contrary, you are forever young. I was honored to toast your lifetime of service tonight.”之后女王并未回复。

See you next time!
