“現(xiàn)在幾點(diǎn)了”別說(shuō)成what time is it now, 老外會(huì)這么說(shuō)...

幾點(diǎn)

 

?What time is it, now?

?What time is it, please?

What time is it now?是我們中式思維下得出的翻譯,講英語(yǔ)的時(shí)候其實(shí)必要說(shuō)now,因?yàn)楫?dāng)你問(wèn)出這句話時(shí)就是在問(wèn)現(xiàn)在,在沒(méi)有附加信息的情況下,你不可能問(wèn)明天幾點(diǎn)了?或者昨天幾點(diǎn)了?所以加上now在老外看來(lái)純屬多此一舉。

那什么時(shí)候可以加now呢?

當(dāng)你問(wèn):

跟你所在地有時(shí)差的地方現(xiàn)在時(shí)間時(shí)會(huì)加now

比如,你在國(guó)外問(wèn)北京現(xiàn)在的時(shí)間

What time is it in Beijing (right) now?

現(xiàn)在北京什么時(shí)間呢?


其它問(wèn)時(shí)間的方式

除了“What time is it?”外,

What's the time?

也是一種非常常見(jiàn)的問(wèn)時(shí)間的方式

這兩種是常規(guī)的問(wèn)法,

另外如果你在國(guó)外也可能會(huì)碰見(jiàn)這么問(wèn)的方式

“You got the time, mate?”

你知道幾點(diǎn)了么,朋友?

“Have you got the time on you?”

你身上帶著表沒(méi)有(能知道時(shí)間的東西)?

“Excuse me, can I get the time?”

不好意思,我能告訴我時(shí)間嗎?

 

幾點(diǎn)

 

或者如果你和一群人在一起,

也可以這么問(wèn):

“What time have we got?”

我們誰(shuí)知道時(shí)間呢?

 

想要問(wèn)“日期”,用英語(yǔ)怎樣表達(dá)?

問(wèn)法一:

What's today?

What day is it ?

 

幾點(diǎn)

 

答:

Today's Tuesday, June 6.

(June sixth)

今天是六月六日,星期四。

問(wèn)法二:

What's the date?

答:

It's June 6. or It's the 6th of June.

今天是六月六日。

在提問(wèn)時(shí),day和date是有區(qū)別的

day = Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, etc.

day是問(wèn)星期

date = June 6

date是問(wèn)日期

當(dāng)別人問(wèn)你日期的時(shí)候,你沒(méi)有必要給出年份。例如:

-What's the date?

-It's June 6. (Not It's June 6, 2005)

只有當(dāng)某人詢問(wèn)未來(lái)或過(guò)去的時(shí)間時(shí),需要加上年份。

-When were you born?

你什么時(shí)候出生的?

-March 25, 1965

1965年3月25日

-When is the next election?

下次選舉什么時(shí)候?

-In November of 2020.

2020年11月。

今天的內(nèi)容都學(xué)會(huì)了么?

歡迎評(píng)論交流心得~
