每日学点新的短语,发音和习语吧♥
Today's English usage is: Excusing yourself. 给自己找个借口(离开/失陪一下).
How did you excuse yourself? Common situations(常见情景) for excusing yourself may include:
Going to the restroom
上洗手间
Having finished your dinner
你正在用餐
Leaving a meeting.
中途离开会议
A popular non-native English phrase is: ''I go first.''
(母语非英语的人会说:我先走。)
However this is not a term used in English speaking countries. A general rule for excusing yourself is to keep it short.
(说离开的理由,外国人的惯例是:越短越好)
Other people don't want to hear your long reason of why you need to go, usually they will not question where you're going either. Popular Western phrases include:
其他人其实并不想了解你离开的愿意,他们也不会追问你为何离开,通常西方常用的短语有:
Excuse me
(失陪)
I'll be back in a minute
(我很快回来)
I'm off
(我下班啦)
I'll see you later
(晚点见)
or
I'll catch you later
(我晚点找你)
I must be going
(我必需走了)
All of these are acceptable in all English speaking countries.
以上所有句子,在说英语的国家都合适的噢。
