一买东西包邮吗?

现在买东西就淘宝,要淘宝就包邮,否则就忽略了。

那么,“包邮吗”用英语怎么说你知道吗?

答案是What about free delivery?

比如说你想问“包邮吗?我们买的多,包邮一下呗。”

就可以这么说:

What about free delivery?If we made a large enough order, could you wave the delivery fee?

那店家肯定会说“包邮啊,如果你买的多的话,就包邮”。

翻译成英语就是:

Yes, our delivery fee could be waved if you made a order of 50 units or more!

If we have to finish this project today, I need all my guys work over time. So the cost will increase maybe 10 percent.

如果你想今天完成工作,我得让我的人加班,那成本就要增加10%。

Are you kidding?

你开玩笑呢吧?

No, and let me tell you why. If I ask my guy to stay over to finish this project, I have to pay them at the overtime rate, which is a time and half.

并没有,我给你算个帐吧。如果我让我的人加班,那我就得付他们1.5倍的加班工资。

It probably take three people two hours to finish the job.

而这个工作需要3人2小时的工作量。

If you need the number so urgently, I can had them do it. Otherwise, we can wait until tomorrow morning.

八薪资“福利”英语怎么说?

当你准备接受一份工作时,着重看一下你的total compensation是很重要的,它等于工资加上所有福利。也就是说:

例如:

把“赶时髦”翻译成 follow the fashion是不地道的。要表达“有商量的余地”,不少朋友会说“have the ground to talk”,地道表达是“have room for negotiation”,room 切好地表示了余地;要翻译“根据客户要求定制产品”,大学生会说make the product with client's special need,虽然不错,在外企有更好的表达“customize products as client's need”,记住了,单词customize 就是“定做”的意思;要表达“很有可能大赚一笔”,四级高手会说“be possible to earn a lot of money”,英语本土人士常说“stand to earn a bundle”,stand to 是“极有可能”的意思,没有想到吧?

准备过年了,大家都穿上漂亮的衣服,看着十分时尚。那么用英语表达“赶时髦,跟潮流”你知道怎么说吗?经常有同学说,不就是follow the fashion 吗?确实可以这么说,但是老实说这个表达算是中国式英语,你去问英语native speaker,他们肯定笑一笑。曾经有人和一个外企美女说,你穿着不错,老是follow the fashion,外企美女笑倒了,因为她们并不那样说“赶时髦”。最地道的说法是jump on the bandwagon,jump on 可以换成get on,单词bandwagon就有“风靡的活动,时尚”的意思。单词band 是乐队的意思,wagon 是马车,来源于一伙人跳上马车到处宣传,于是就有“跟风”的意思了。

我们通过例句来学习jump on the bandwagon的用法。

I don't really need it, but I suppose I might as well jump on the bandwagon.

说实在的我不需要,不过我也想赶赶时髦。

I always told my children not to jump on the bandwagon in fashion.

我常告诉孩子不必在服装上赶时髦。
