奔向八年
1.I'm just browsing.(我只是随便看看。)当你走进商店，营业员通常都会走过来问你“May I help you?”(需要帮忙吗？)或是“Are you looking for something?”(你想买什么衣服？)如果你只是随便看看，不妨客气地说“I'm just browsing.”或“I'm just looking.”这样你就可以在商店里随便逛了。如果你要找某种衣服， 如毛衣，你就可以说，“I'm looking for a sweater. Could you help me?”(我想买一件毛衣，你能告诉我在哪里吗？)或是“Do you have any sweater?”(你们卖毛衣吗？) 2.May I try this on?(我能试试这件吗？)如果想知道自己看中的衣服能不能试穿，可以问营业员“May I try this on?”当然，在美国，大部份衣服都是可以试穿的,倒是可以问营业员“Where is the fitting room?”(试衣间在哪里？)有时进试衣间前，有人会在门口问你“How many?”这时你只要告诉她你拿了几件衣服就可以了。比如拿了两件，你回答“Two.”就可以了。这时候，她会给你一块上面写着2的牌子，进去之前，你只要把这个牌子挂在门上。 3.I like this tank top.It goes with my baggy jeans.(我喜欢这件背心，它很配我的宽松牛仔裤。) tank top就是背心。有一种男生穿的纯白背心，美国人把它戏称为wife-beater。因为他们觉得穿这种背心的人通常有结实的肌肉，回家后喜欢打老婆。baggy是“宽松”的意思，如男生穿的宽松短裤就叫baggy pants。而我们熟悉的直筒牛仔裤是straight jeans。 4.Could you help me pick up a dress?(你能帮我挑一件礼服吗？) 在正式场合，每位女士几乎都有一套正式礼服(即dress)，特别是那种低胸(low cut)连身裙(evening gown)。有时可以用dressy来强调这件礼服很漂亮很时髦，如“Her dressy dress really caught my eyes.”(我的目光被她漂亮的礼服所吸引。)而dress up则是指作正式的穿着打扮，男女都可用，也就是女生穿礼服、男生穿西装打领带了。 5.I just want to buy some off-the-rack clothes.(我只想随便买一些现成的衣服。) rack指的是衣架，所以off-the-rack指的是那种由工厂大量制造的成衣，通常指很普通、不是特别好的衣服。例如在某夜市买来的地摊货，就可以说“It's just something off-the-rack.”(只是件普通的衣服啦！)相比较，custom-made或tailor-made指的是“定做”的。如，“Ineed to get a custom-made tuxes do for my wedding."(我要为婚礼去定作一件燕尾服。) 6.This shirt is very stylish and not very expensive.(这件衬衫又时髦又便宜。) Good-looking就是“好看”，stylish则是“时髦”，可以用good-looking和stylish来称赞某件衣服。另外，也可以用becoming，指“合身又好看”。 7.I don't think this one will fit me.(我觉得这件衣服不合身。)买衣服时看到一件自己中意的衣服，却偏偏没有合适的尺寸，可以说“It's not my size.”或“It won't fit me.”(大小不合适)。有些商店挂着alteration的招牌，则是指可以提供修改衣服的服务。 8.Your clothes don't match.(你的衣服不太配。)这句话指的是衣服不配，可能是颜色不配，也可能是样式不配。当然，外国人的审美观和我们中国人不大一样，营业员说这句话，你可不必太把它当回事。 9.Let me ring that up for you.(可以结账了吗？)“埋单”的讲法通常是check out。通常，选好了衣服就可以拿到收银台(cash register)，跟店员说，“I want to check out.”有些营业员喜欢用ring up，同样也是“结帐”的意思，因为在开收款机的时候通常会有ring的一声。有时候店员看到你拿着衣服走过来，她会主动地跟你说“Let me ring that up for you.”你可以回答“OK.Go ahead and ring it up for me.”(好，那就帮我结账吧！)
