5. I want to run some errands.
我要去辦點雜事.
Errands 指的是短的行程, 如要去寄信, 又要去買東西, 又要去領錢, 就是 run some errands, 或是 do some errands. 有一個字跟 run some errands 很像, 就是 chore 這個字, 指的就是家務, 雜務. 例如, After I finished chores. I sat down and had a cup of coffee.
曾經在廣播上聽到一句很感性的句子, 那是在母親節的時候吧, 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在奔波.
