5. I want to run some errands.
我要去辦點(diǎn)雜事.
Errands 指的是短的行程, 如要去寄信, 又要去買東西, 又要去領(lǐng)錢, 就是 run some errands, 或是 do some errands. 有一個(gè)字跟 run some errands 很像, 就是 chore 這個(gè)字, 指的就是家務(wù), 雜務(wù). 例如, After I finished chores. I sat down and had a cup of coffee.
曾經(jīng)在廣播上聽到一句很感性的句子, 那是在母親節(jié)的時(shí)候吧, 主持人說, I have to thank my mom. She spends her whole life taking care of her children and running errands. 就是說我的母親終其一生都在為了照顧她的小孩和為了一些雜務(wù)在奔波.
