In today’s episode, my new friend at the café asks if I want to go out together!You’ll learn how to invite someone politely using 要不要,suggest doing something 一起,soften your tone with 吧,and express “after / later” using 以后. 🌇💬
我们喝完咖啡以后，他看着我，说：“你要不要去外面走走？天气很好。”我有点儿意外，但觉得这样也不错。所以我说：“好啊，我们一起去吧！”他笑了笑，说：“那走吧。”
Wǒmen hē wán kāfēi yǐhòu, tā kàn zhe wǒ, shuō:“Nǐ yào bu yào qù wàimiàn zǒu zǒu? Tiānqì hěn hǎo.”Wǒ yǒu diǎnr yìwài, dàn juéde zhèyàng yě búcuò.Suǒyǐ wǒ shuō: “Hǎo a, wǒmen yìqǐ qù ba!”Tā xiào le xiào, shuō: “Nà zǒu ba.”
After we finished our coffee, he asked:“Do you want to go for a walk outside? The weather is nice.”I said, “Sure, let’s go together.”
要不要 (yào bu yào) — Do you want to…?
一起 (yìqǐ) — together
吧 (ba) — soft suggestion
以后 (yǐhòu) — after / later
