In this episode, we are making dinner at the beginning, "When I get home, I start on dinner right away."
在這一節里,故事開頭我們正在做晚飯,“當我回到家的時候,我立馬開始準備晚飯。”
Once again, we have one of those two word verbs in English, "I start on dinner," that means I begin to prepare dinner.
我們又碰到了一個英語中的那些兩個字的動詞,“I start on dinner”,意思是“我開始準備晚飯”。
So, "I start on dinner right away. I clean off the kitchen counter after putting away the groceries."
因此,“我立馬開始準備晚飯。在把食物放好之后我便清理了一下廚房柜臺”。
The kitchen counter, "counter," is the place in your kitchen where you have a long, flat top or board where you can prepare food and you can put things on, it's like the table almost.
廚房柜臺(counter),是廚房里的一塊又長又平的面或板,你可以在那準備食物,也可以把東西放在那,它就跟桌子差不多。
But usually in a kitchen, you have cabinets or cupboards, where you store things, and on top you have a counter.
但一般在廚房里,你有貯存物品的儲物柜或碗柜,它們的上面就是柜臺。
A counter is a general word that refers to the top of something, usually somewhere where you do something on top of it.
柜臺是指某物頂部的概括詞,一般是你在它上面做某事的地方。
In this case, the kitchen counter is where you prepare food.
在這里,廚房柜臺是你準備食物的地方。
