“我有事”的英文表达


如果将“我有事”直译成 "I have things",那就是中式英语了 。因为我们平常所说的“我有事”,指的是“我有事情去做” ,所以才要婉拒对方。
“我有事”的正确英文表达是 "I have things to do.",这是偏正式的说法。
还有一个说法比较口语化,也很常用: "I\'ve got stuff(to do)."
例句:
"I have things to do. Let\'s call it a day."
我有点事情,今天就到这儿吧 。
"I\'ve got stuff to do, so I can\'t hang out with you today."
我有事,所以今天不能跟你出去玩了 。

另外有一个更口语化的表达"have(get) one\'s hands full ",指非常忙;手头有很多事要做。
例句:
He can\'t help today because he has his hands full. He has to go shopping, pick his children up from school and then cook dinner.
他今天帮不了忙,因为他很忙,得去购物、接孩子,然后做晚饭 。
