第二個是007之一片，我們的007改莎士比亞『錯中錯：是喜是悲』 (comedy of errors ) 為 tragedy of errors，意思說，他犯了找錯房子等錯誤，真悲劇也！不過在影片中不能加注，所以難譯…….
A comedy of errors is dramatic work (often a play) that is light and often humorous or satirical in tone, in which the action usually features a series of comic instances of mistaken identity, and which typically culminates in a happy resolution of the thematic conflict.William Shakespeare wrote such a play, appropriately entitled The Comedy of Errors.
Many modern television situation comedies use comedy of errors as a standard plot device, often in every episode. Three's Company is considered a classic example of such a sitcom.
