我们每天都要同别人打招呼,或是回应他人的问候,那么在美国人们都是如何说的呢?现在就让我们跟着Alison老师学习一下用于朋友、同学之间的随意问候吧!
1. 在路上擦肩而过,或者要停下来聊天时,可以用到以下这些句子:
Hey! How's it going?
Hey! What's up?
Hey, what's going on?
2. 想要停下来聊天,而不是随便走过的时候,用下面这些句子:
Long time no see! What are you up to today?
Hey! I haven't seen you in ages! How have you been?
3. 要怎么回答上面的问题呢?以下这些短语句子都可以~(从上到下依次是从开心到不开心的答案)
【开心时】
Fantastic!
Great!
Pretty good!
【心情一般】
Can't complain!(生活平淡、无甚新奇)
Alright.(有点不好的事儿,但还行)
So-so.(有好事儿有坏事儿,还行)
Could be better, could be worse.(有好事儿有坏事儿,还行)
【不开心时】
Could be better, honestly.(是有些不开心的事,我可能想聊聊,也可能不)
Not so great, actually.(我有不开心的事儿,我想跟你聊聊)
4. 很多小盆友回答完上面那些话就不知道怎么接了,其实最好的办法就是自己再多说点,也就是解释一下你为啥开心或不开心~~比如以下这些说法:
I saw a great film last night...
I have some interesting work today...
I'm just happy it's Friday!
I'm far too busy today!
I think it's just one of those days, you know?(这句回答用在你不想多解释、不想多聊的时候。意思就是“我日子过得还行”。这种回答可以避免别人继续跟你纠缠,但又不至于显得不礼貌)
