Hi, Nancy! How is it going today? What are your plans for lunch?
嗨,南希。你好嗎? 午餐你想吃什麼?
當您對對方比較了解時,就會出現這種情況。以下問題可以用於稍微禮貌一點的場合。
Are you busy these days, Tom? Are you free to have lunch on Friday?
湯姆,你最近忙嗎? 週五你有時間吃午餐嗎?
・邀請出差的員工吃飯
Good morning, Amy. Would you like to have lunch together after the meeting?
早安,Amy,會議結束後妳想一起吃午餐嗎?
Lucy, how is the new project going? Today is the last day of your business trip. We’d like to invite you for dinner tonight.
露西,妳的新專案進行得如何? 今天是妳出差的最後一天。我們想邀請妳今晚共進晚餐。
・邀請商業夥伴參加招待等宴會時
If you aren’t busy today, would you like to have dinner together?
如果你今天不忙的話,要一起吃晚餐嗎?
Do you have time for dinner together?
有時間一起吃晚餐嗎?
Would you go out to have dinner with us?
你願意和我們一起出去吃晚餐嗎?
Would you like to go to dinner next time with us?
下次你願意跟我們一起去吃飯嗎?
It would be great if we could have dinner with you.
如果我們能和你一起去吃晚餐就好了。
場景三:決定去哪裡吃飯
接著我們來看看,當決定去哪裡吃飯時,可以用的例句。
A:I’m starving! How about the Japanese place over there? B:Sounds good!
A:我餓壞了,去那邊的日本料理店怎麼樣?
B:聽起來不錯!
B:Yes. I was so busy I forgot to eat my lunch! I’m famished! A:Let’s go out for dinner! B:Sounds good! A:Do you have anywhere in mind?
A:你工作結束了嗎?
B:是的,我太忙了,忘記吃午餐了!我餓了!
A:我們出去吃飯吧!
B:聽起來不錯!
A:你有什麼想吃的嗎?
如上所示,「have ~ in mind」的意思是「有何想法」。
We could buy sandwiches and eat them in the park.
我們可以買三明治並在公園裡吃。
A:Let’s have Vietnamese cuisine tonight? B:That would be nice.
A:That is a BYO restaurant!
A:今晚我們吃越南菜吧?
B:那太棒了。
A:你可以帶酒進入那間餐廳!
在澳洲、紐西蘭、英國和其他國家,「BYO」經常出現在商店、菜單和網站上。這是「Bring Your Own」的縮寫,意味著您可以自帶酒類。據說,這是因為許多餐廳沒有營業執照。也可以寫成「BYOB」,代表「「Bring your own booze (bottle, beer, beverage)」。 「booze」的意思是「酒」。
・在休閒場合和商務場合都可以使用的表達
歸根究底,以「Would you like to~?」作為一種禮貌的表達方式,是很有用的。
Would you like to join us for drinks after work?
下班後你想和我們一起喝一杯嗎?
Would you like to join me for a couple of drinks?
你願意和我一起喝幾杯嗎?
如上所述,如果您加上「if you are free(如果你有時間)」或「if you are not busy(如果你不忙的話)」之類的短語,可以表達對對方的關心。不論是休閒或商務場合都能使用。
Let’s grab a drink if you are free.
如果你有空的話我們去喝一杯吧。
Let’s go to the pub if you are not busy.
如果你不忙的話我們去酒吧吧!
Would you like to drink if you are not busy?
如果你不忙的話,喝一杯怎麼樣?
