Anyway it was Louis Diat who once said that “there are five elements: earth, air, fire, water and garlic.”

不管怎样，下面这句话是路易·迪亚特说的：“世上有五种元素：土，气，火，水，还有大蒜。”

It was in 1900 that Louis Diat turned 15 years old and let's assume that the story he told New Yorker Magazine in 1950 goes back to an earlier stage of his childhood.

1900年，路易·迪亚特正好十五岁。 我们不妨认为他在1950年告诉《纽约客杂志》的故事发生在他很小的时候。
