English term or phrase:earl
Dans la série TV "Living Single", les collocataires de Khadijah lui préparent une surprise pour son anniversaire, elle a les yeux bandés et elles sont en voiture :
- Can I take this thing off? I'm about to lose it, yo.
- Khadijah, it's not the blindfold that's making you sick, it's Max's driving.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
- Well, why don't you drive?
- No!
- I don't believe you. You crazy.
- Didn't think so.
- All right, that's it. I'm taking this thing off.
- No, no, you're gonna ruin the surprise.
- How about I surprise all y'all and earl right here?
- Oh, don't do that!
and the script says "earl", but I guess it'a way of telling that she's gonna spew... (so, might be "hurl" instead of "earl", yes, thanks for your note)
the only way to be sure is to go back to the transcription tape (unless there is a character named Earl)

"bleurgh" ou quelque chose comme ça
Explanation: d'après le reste de la phrase, je le comprends comme une onomatopée représentant le vomissement, puisqu'elle commence à se sentir mal dans la voiture....peut çetre que lq transcription "earl" est approximative?
En tous cas je ne vois pas ce que le pauvre Earl viendrait faire dans cette histoire....

The updates to the menu were made to make the site easy and more intuitive for visitors. Obviously, like any change, this may take a few days to get used to.
The dropdown menus have been divided into two-dimensional panels with similar items grouped together under headings. This eliminates scrolling for those with smaller screens, and also improves readability.
Mouseover your name at the top of the screen. Here you will find information about your account, your email settings, and more. The "My ProZ.com" menu was moved up here to simplify the main navigation, and to keep all of this type of information together.
