英语口语 不期而遇,好好叙旧英语该怎么说,朋友很久没有联系了,想要见面聚一聚,叙叙旧,此时英文可以说catch up。哎?有同学要问了,我们在课本中学到的catch up的意思是“抓住,赶上”啊,catch up怎么还有“叙旧”的意思。今天我们来看一下在口语表达中,catch up如何才能表达“叙旧”的意思。
catch up可以单独使用,比如说:
We need to catch up.
我们应该好好叙叙旧。
也可以接不同的介词,比如catch up on something或catch up with someone。
1. It's been years since we were last together! You and I must really catch up with each other sometime soon.
我们好几年都没有见面了,你我一定得找时间聚聚。
这里用的是介词with接“人”each other:catch up with each other,就是说“彼此见面,叙叙旧”。
2. 如果要接“事物”,则用介词on:
It's been years since we were last together! You and I must really catch up on each other's livessometime soon.
我们好几年都没有见面了,你我一定得找时间聚聚。
