The merpeople had grayish skin and long, wild, dark green hair.

人鱼的皮肤呈铁灰色，墨绿色的头发长长的，蓬蓬乱乱。

There was no sign of any of the other champions, merpeople, Ron-nor, thankfully, the giant squid.

看不见其他勇士、人鱼和罗恩——谢天谢地，也没有看见巨乌贼。

" Darling Dodgy! I remember interviewing him a few years back about merpeople rights, bless him. "

亲爱的多戈！我还记得几年前采访他关于人鱼权利的事，上帝啊！

Many of the merpeople surrounding them were carrying spears.

人质周围的许多人鱼手里都拿着长矛。

But then the merpeople around him pointed excitedly over his head.

就在这时，他周围的人鱼突然兴奋地指着他的脑袋上方。

" Myrtle, there aren't merpeople in there, are there? "

“桃金娘，那里没有人鱼吧，有吗？”

But Harry wasn't listening; he was thinking about the merpeople's song again.

然而哈利没有听，他又在思索人鱼的那首歌了。

There was a soft splashing noise to his left and he saw that the merpeople had broken the surface to listen, too.

在他的左边响起一阵轻柔的声音，他看见更多的人在认真听。

Harry sped toward the hostages, half expecting the merpeople to lower their spears and charge at him, but they did nothing.

哈利奋力朝人质游去。他以为人鱼为把长矛横过来朝他进攻，但他们并没有这样做。

A whole crowd of merpeople was floating in front of the houses that lined what looked like a mer-version of a village square.

那地方似乎是人鱼小村庄的广场，四周坐落着一些房子，房子前面漂浮着一大群人鱼。

He was making the same sort of screechy noises that the merpeople made when they were above water; clearly, Dumbledore could speak Mermish.

邓布利多发出了人鱼在水面上发出的那种尖利刺耳的声音，显然，他也会说人鱼的话。

Merpeople were emerging on all sides now, watching him eagerly, pointing at his webbed hands and gills, talking behind their hands to each other.

人鱼从四面八方涌现出来，都好奇地望着他，冲着他长蹼的手和鳃囊指指点点，并用手掩着嘴窃窃私语。

It had paintings of merpeople on it; they were carrying spears and chasing what looked like the giant squid. Harry swam on past the rock, following the mersong.

上面绘着许多人鱼，他们手里拿着长矛，正在追逐着一些看上去像是巨型乌贼的东西。哈利从岩石旁游过，追寻着人鱼的歌声。

The merpeople had grayish skin and long, wild, dark green hair. Their eyes were yellow, as were their broken teeth, and they wore thick ropes of pebbles around their necks.

人鱼的皮肤呈铁灰色，墨绿色的头发长长的，蓬蓬乱乱。他们的眼睛是黄色的，残缺不全的牙齿也是黄色的，脖子上戴着用粗绳子串起的卵石。

They pulled Fleur's sister through the water, back toward the bank where the judges stood watching, twenty merpeople accompanying them like a guard of honor, singing their horrible screechy songs.

他们拖着芙蓉的妹妹，趟水走向岸边。裁判们都站在那里望着，二十个人鱼像仪仗队一样陪伴着他们，嘴里还尖声尖气地唱着难听的歌。

A choir of merpeople was singing in the middle, calling the champions toward them, and behind them rose a crude sort of statue; a gigantic merperson hewn from a boulder.

中间有一些人鱼在齐声歌唱，呼唤勇士过去。他们身后耸立着一座粗糙的雕像：一个用巨石雕刻成的大人鱼。

It was all very well for Ron; he'd been asleep, he hadn't felt how eerie it was down in the lake, surrounded by spear-carrying merpeople who'd looked more than capable of murder.

对罗恩来说这一切都没什么，他睡着了，他感觉不到在湖底下是多么阴森恐怖，周围都是拿着长矛的人鱼，一个个都像是杀人的老手。

Merpeople were emerging on all sides now, watching him eagerly, pointing at his webbed hands and gills, talking behind their hands to one another. Harry sped around a corner and a very strange sight met his eyes.

人鱼从四面八方涌现出来，都好奇地望着他，冲着他长蹼的手和鳃囊指指点点，并用手掩着嘴窃窃私语。哈利迅速转了个弯，眼前出现了一片十分奇特的景象。

Harry felt both stupid and annoyed. It was all very well for Ron; he'd been asleep, he hadn't felt how eerie it was down in the lake, surrounded by spear-carrying merpeople who'd looked more than capable of murder.

哈利觉得又泄气又恼火。对罗恩来说这一切都没什么，他睡着了，他感觉不到在湖底下是多么阴森恐怖，周围都是拿着长矛的人鱼，一个个都像是杀人的老手。
