Translate a daily conversation at home from Chinese into English A friend on
Italki always posts both the Chinese and English versions of her translations. I
believe that is a good idea. If anyone is learning Chinese, I hope this can
help a little bit. And thanks for any of your help in advance. W:l ordered some
snacks online today. W:为今天在网上买了些零食。 H:Okay, how many (note 1) did you order? H:嗯,买了多少?
W:Not many, it only cost 100 Yuan. W:不多,就买了一百块钱的(零食)。 H:Why didn't you order
more? It's double-eleven today, and you like snacks. H:为啥不多买点?今天双十一啊,你又喜欢吃零食。
W:You(’re) (note 2) serious? W:你认真的么? H:Yes! Why? H:是啊,咋了? W: I thought it was enough.There
are packs of nuts, cookies, crisps, beef jerky, so many others, I can't remember them
all.The original price was 400, but there was a discount of 300 Yuan (OR “but it was 300 Yuan off) for orders over
400.So finally it just cost 100Yuan. Is there anything you'd like to eat? I will
put in another order if you want something else.
w.我当时觉得够了,有坚果、饼干、薯片、牛肉干,太多了,记不得了。原价400,满四百 减三百,最后就花了一百。你还有什么想吃的么?你要有啥想吃的我就再下一个单。
H:Nope, I don't want to eat junk food.But if you are so willing to share, I will
probably grudgingly (note 3) take some when you eat them.
H:不用,我不吃垃圾食品,但是你要这么想给我分一点,你吃的时候我也可以勉强吃点。 W:Nice try, no way! w:你想得美,没门儿!
