大家好,今天我想和你们分享一个关于语言的小故事。有一次,我在国外旅行,想去一家餐厅吃饭。我走进去,对服务员说:“Hello, I want to eat here.”
服务员微笑着回答:“Sure, sir. What would you like to order?”
我接着说:“I want...um...how do you say this in English?”
他耐心地问:“What is it? Maybe I can help.”
“I don’t know...it’s...you know...the thing we put bread on!” I said, gesturing wildly.
He looked confused for a moment, then suddenly burst out laughing. “Ah! You mean the plate!”
“Yes! That’s it! The plate!” I exclaimed, relieved.
We both laughed about that for a while. It just goes to show how sometimes even simple words can get mixed up when you’re not careful. And remember, if you ever find yourself in a similar situation, don’t worry—it’s all part of the fun of learning a new language!
Thank you for listening, and keep practicing your English—it gets easier with every try!
