2024年巴黎奥运会官方吉祥物“弗里热”公布

据路透社11月14日报道，巴黎奥组委当日宣布，两个可爱的红色卡通形象“弗里热”成为2024年巴黎夏季奥运会和残奥会官方吉祥物。本次奥运会吉祥物的设计灵感来自法国传统的弗里吉亚帽，两个吉祥物都有着卡通大眼睛，胸口分别戴着2024年巴黎奥运会会徽、五环标识，以及残奥会会徽、国际残奥委会的标识，它们的脚也有差别——残奥会吉祥物的右脚是黑色的“刀锋”假肢。
 

 

Phrygian caps will be the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games mascots² as organizers look to celebrate the French revolution's spirit.

2024巴黎奥运会和残奥会的吉祥物将是弗里吉亚帽，主办方希望借此颂扬法国的革命精神。

 

"'Phryges' aim to show that sport can change everything, and that it deserves to have a prominent place in our society," Paris 2024 brand director Julie Matikhine said on Monday.

巴黎奥运品牌设计总监朱莉·马斯基14日表示：“‘弗里热’象征着体育可以改变一切，它理应在我们的社会中占有重要地位。”

 

The Phrygian caps were favored over animals, who have mostly been the first choice in other Olympics - such as the 'Bing Dwen Dwen' panda at the 2022 Winter Games in Beijing this year.

在此前多届奥运会上，动物是吉祥物的首选，例如，2022北京冬奥会吉祥物“冰墩墩”就是大熊猫。而比起动物，法国更偏爱弗里吉亚帽。

 

It's a symbol of revolution and freedom, of striving. It's an icon³ seen over centuries, from the Notre Dame⁴ Cathedral to the Eiffel Tower. 

弗里吉亚帽是革命、自由、奋斗的象征。几个世纪以来，在巴黎圣母院大教堂、埃菲尔铁塔，都能看到这顶标志性的帽子。

 

More specifically, it's the red bonnet⁵ famously worn by Marianne, the artistic⁶ personification of the free French republic.

更具体地说，这顶弗里吉亚帽是玛丽安娜头顶标志性的红色帽子。玛丽安娜是法兰西共和国的国家象征。

 

"The mascot¹ must embody⁷ the French spirit... It's an ideal, a kind of conviction that carries the values of our country, and which has been built up over time, over history."

“吉祥物必须体现法国精神……它是一种理想，一种信念，承载着法国随着时间历史的推移建立起来的价值观。”

 

The red Phrygian caps come in two versions - the Olympic and the Paralympic one - with a blade leg.

红色的弗里吉亚帽有奥运会和残奥会两种版本，残奥会版“弗里热”戴着“刀锋”假肢。

 

As happens when a national spirit combines with the Olympic spirit, the mascots are also being packaged into nearly 10,000 types of products, from plush toys to hoodies, electronics and luggage.

民族精神与奥林匹克精神相结合的同时，吉祥物也被包装成近万种产品，包括毛绒玩具、连帽衫、电子产品和行李箱等。

 

The Olympic Games will be held from July 26-Aug. 11 and the Paralympics from Aug. 28-Sept. 8.

2024巴黎奥运会将于7月26日至8月11日举行，残奥会将于8月28日至9月8日举行。
