脱掉字幕:
1.It's not too late to back out.想要退出还来得及。
Back out表示的意思是“退出,不参与”,常表示退出曾经答应要参与的某件事情,表示“退出某事”用的是back out of sth.,如和别人达成协议后又想终止协议就可以说We are thinking of backing out of the contract.“我们想终止合同。”
It's not too late to back out.是在电视剧或电影中出现频率很高的一句话,与之相反的意思“现在要后悔已经来不及了”就可以说It's too late to back out.
2.Thanks for a great meal.谢谢你丰盛的饭菜。
到别人家做客,临别时都会对主人的款待表示感谢,这时就可以说一句Thanks for a great meal.,你可以说Thank you for inviting me.“感谢你邀请我。”而主人这时会回答I'm glad you could come.“我很高兴你能来。”并可能还会邀请你下次再到他家做客,这时他就会说Drop by sometime.“有空再来串门吧。”
