Rover – here boy! (Su Fido,) Qui bello, da bravo. Explanation: Come Roberta, penso anch'io che sia il riferimento al nome stereotipato di un cane, ma, di più, credo che l'intera espressione lo sia. In italiano probabilmente diremmo "Fido", ma, come dicevo sopra, secondo si tratta di rendere l'intera espressione in modo naturale e trasmettendo il concetto che si tratta di un modo di rivolgersi a un cane, e secondo me l'utilizzo del nomignolo in italiano potrebbe anche essere superfluo. "So until PETA protesters stop showing up to rallies wearing leather jackets, and cute-connoisseurs subsist on pulse and locusts, I’ll be here making e-noise. And eating dogs. Here Rover! Here boy! Who’s a delicious doggy? You are! Yes you are!" - http://www.chinaexpat.com/2007/12/27/wokking-the-dog.html/ "A lovely white drug-sniffing Labrador greets us in the customs hall, but I now know better - after an earlier incident in the Falklands - not to interfere with the forces of law and order by hollering 'Hey, Rover, here, boy' and trying to pet him on the conveyor belt. Very verboten." - http://www.huffingtonpost.com/mike-arkus/st-pierre-a-tiny-pi... Example sentence(s):
