皮卡丘的新助理迪丽热巴总是胃疼,于是外教关心的问:Do you do breakfast?
迪丽热巴有点懵了,为什么外教会问她:“做早餐了没?”事实是她理解错了!应该翻译成“你通常吃早餐吗?”(习惯性不吃早餐容易得胃病)
%201、Do%20breakfast%20吃早餐
它通常描述经常性、习惯性的动作,不用来描述一次性的动作。
譬如:
①I%20don't%20do%20breakfast%20on%20Saturdays.
我周六一般不吃早饭。
②Do%20you%20do%20breakfast%20on%20Saturdays?
你一般周六吃早饭吗?
然而描述一次性的动作,具体某个时间段吃早餐应该用:
have%20/eat%20breakfast%20吃早饭
譬如:
①I%20had%20breakfast%20at%208:00%20this%20morning.
我今早8:%2000吃了早饭。
②Did%20you%20have%20
breakfast?/Did you eat breakfast?
吃早饭了没?
%202、“请吃饭”用英语怎么说?
buy%20sb(you)%20dinner是常用的口语表达(dinner%20n.(中午或晚上吃的)%20正餐)%20直译就很好理解“为你买正餐”。可以延伸为:请你吃饭
情景交融:
A:%20Piakchu,%20please.%20Just%20give%20me%20a%20hand,%20you%20know%20I'm%20not%20good%20at%20English.
皮卡丘求你了,帮帮我吧,你也知道我英语不好!
B:%20Oh,%20you%20know,%20I'm%20quite%20busy%20recently,%20I%20have%20to%20look%20after%20my%20baby%20and%20...
额...我最近好忙,我要照顾我的孩子,而且,我还要.....
A:%20OK.%20I%20will%20buy%20you%20dinner%20if%20you%20would%20like%20to%20help%20me.
如果你愿意帮我的话,我请你吃饭!
B:%20It's%20a%20deal!
一言为定!
英语中“我请客”还有许多地道表达,我们来分别看一下
??%20It's%20my%20treat.%20我请客。
??%20It's%20on%20me.%20算我的。
??%20I'll%20get%20this.%20我来付。
??%20Let%20me%20buy%20your%20dinner.我请你吃饭。
??%20Let%20me%20treat%20to%20your%20dinner.我请你吃饭。
??%20This%20is%20my%20round.这回我请。
例句:
A:Dinner%20was%20$20,%20here%20is%20my%20$10.
晚饭20美元,这是我的10美元。
B:No,%20keep%20your%20money,%20it's%20on%20me.
不用啦,我请客。
