结结巴巴邀请大家来派对:was wondering if

伊恩鼓起勇气想邀同学来家里玩,先来一句 What up(最近怎么样),又约大家一起 get down on some cake(狠狠干点蛋糕),结果被吐槽这话根本没人这么说。想学怎么开口约人、怎么打招呼才不尴尬:用 Was wondering if(想问问是否)开口,语气一下就自然了。

发生了什么

伊恩想邀班上的同学来家里参加派对,却紧张到说不出漂亮的场面话,被人吐槽邀约方式根本没人这么讲。三个表达最实用:What up 是朋友间最随意的「最近怎么样」,见面打招呼就能用;was wondering if 是「想问问是否」,委婉开口求人办事的万能句式;fit in 既可以指挤进座位,也可以指融入一个圈子、跟大家合得来。约人、寒暄、刚进新环境时都用得到。

看懂「结结巴巴邀请大家来派对」

这一章能学到

  • 会用 in there 开口
  • 见到 merge into traffic 知道在施压
  • 能听懂这场里的讽刺或命令
  • 听懂关键短语在本场的真实语气
  • 把台词搭配放进新的日常回应里
I'm, uh, having a party tonight and I was wondering if you wanted to come over.

我今晚要办个小聚会,想问问你要不要过来。 把邀请拆成两句拖拖拉拉的话,紧张和期待全在那半句「不确定」里。

It just makes it a little hard for me to fit in there.

这搞得我有点难挤进去坐着。 说的是椅子,听起来却是所有格格不入的人:不是不努力融入,是空间本来就没给他留够。

Hey, uh, Gorgamon. Um... Would you mind not putting your feet on my chair today?

今天能不能请你别把脚搁在我椅子上? 礼貌外壳包着明确边界:加 today 等于说以前天天如此。学这句就学会了不翻脸也能提要求。

but I'm sure you probably are doing something tonight, and you like cake like I like cake.

不过我猜你今晚八成有事,而且你跟我一样喜欢蛋糕。 一句话里塞满紧张的猜测和自我打圆场,是社交恐惧者硬着头皮开口的实录。

关于这一章的问题

What up 是什么意思?

是「最近怎么样、嗨」的随意问候,比 How are you 更口语。朋友、同辈见面随口一句 What up 就行,正式场合别用。

「能不能请你别……」英语怎么说?

可以说 Would you mind not...,后面接动词 ing,比如 Would you mind not putting your feet on my chair。语气客气,适合提不太方便的要求。

Fit in 只能指挤进座位吗?

不。fit in 字面是塞得进去,更常指「融入圈子、跟大家合得来」。新班级、新公司里说 I'm trying to fit in,就是在努力融入。

Was wondering if 怎么用?

它是委婉开口的句式,意思是「想问问是否……」。后面接完整句子,比如 I was wondering if you wanted to come over,比直接问更有礼貌、不唐突。

「坐公交」英语怎么说?

就是 take the bus。也可以说 take the bus over to my house,意思就是坐公交到我家来,日常出行很常用。
