各位貓友！

原本是在購買前，想先比較一下，可一次就買到正確版本，轉念一想，乾脆把做作業的過程與大家分享，讓其他尚未收到本劇的貓友都能利益均霑。

為了讓其他貓友能預先知道各版本差異，小弟在此把能找到的好萊塢音樂劇貓DVD的相關資訊列出，
有收藏不同版本的貓友如方便，是否願從同一畫面擷取幾張不同版本的螢幕照片，讓大家可以一眼看出各版的畫質與音質流量？
在此先謝過慷慨奉獻時間的貓友。

再加上高麗人蔘版無內頁說明與手冊外，台灣也有一隻貓，不知道跟國外相比，算得上是哪個版本才是真正好貓呢？
台灣版有無國語的歌詞翻譯字幕呢？還是只有英文字幕？歌詞翻譯是照實翻譯的直譯派？還是看不懂、翻不出來就亂掰美化派？

小弟當初冬園看戲前，咬了半天的牙，終於買下刊載歌詞的天價貓書。趁著觀眾入座妥當之前，在開幕前一翻，想在開演前臨陣磨鎗，先進入歌詞的情境氛圍，沒想到情緒立即墜入萬丈深淵，受到學習英文以來的最嚴重的打擊，因為歌詞中一大堆沒看過的古怪字眼。

後來才知本劇用了很多兒童用的狀聲詞、無意義的疊字，知道後才釋懷，原來不是我英文程度低落，這就是文化隔閡本身的詫異。

所以心中好奇想知道：台灣出的版本，中文歌詞翻譯水準如何？參雜了大陸味或是香港味嗎？

哪位可願意幫忙一下，回覆見教？多謝您幫忙！
