Before I started studying, I thought history, art or 'owt like that were only for the family, not for us.

开始读书前，总觉得历史、艺术什么人家情操，与们无关。

There's a Yorkshire saying:   " If tha ever does owt for nowt, do it fer thi sen" - I hope no one from Yorkshire sees this  - meaning if you ever do anything for nothing, do it for yourself.

克郡有句谚语：“若你无缘无故做了什么，那请为自己而做。 ” ——希望克郡没有人看到这句话——意思， 若你无缘无故做了什么，那请为自己而做。
