在加拿大
干杯 每逢佳节聚会,英美人常欢聚一堂,频频举杯,开怀畅饮,“干杯!”、“为……干杯!”之声不绝于耳。那么英美人是如何表示的呢? 一、用(Here's)to 表示: 1.Here's to your health / success. 为你的健康 / 成功干杯! 2.Here's to our friendship! 为我们的友谊干杯! 3.Here's to Tom for his new job! 为汤姆的新工作干杯! 二、用health, luck等表示:Good health! Good luck! All the best!例如: 1.Your health, John―May you have a successful time in Manchester!为了你的健康,约翰,也祝你在曼彻斯特前程似锦! 2.Helen raised her glass,“Good luck to you!” she said. 海伦举起酒杯,说道:“祝你好运!” 三、主人或主持人邀客人喝酒时,通常用Cheers! Do the honors!例如: 1.He raised his glass,“May you success! Cheers!” 他举起酒杯说:“祝你成功,干杯!” 2.Pat, you do the honors and propose the toast. 帕特,你敬酒吧。 四、在比较随便的场合,通常用Here's how!还有Happy landing!(美俚,原为空军用语)等。例如: Oh,come, come,David.Here's how!噢,来呀,来呀,大卫,干杯! 五、在比较正式的场合,英美人有时也用一些外来语。例如: Prosit!(来源于拉丁语,意为May it do good! To your health/ good luck! etc. ) 六、在陈述句中,英美语通常用toast,round, drink to,drink a toast for / to, propose a toast for 等词表示。例如: 1.Friends,I'll give you a toast――to our president! 朋友们,我给大家敬酒,为我们总统干杯! 2.I now propose a toast to the friendship between our two people――to our friendship. 现在,我提议为我们两国人民的友谊干杯!

Have you booked a table? 您预定餐桌了吗? Have you made a reservation? 您预定了吗? smoking or non-smoking? 吸烟区还是非吸烟区? Would you like something to drink? 您想喝什么? Would you like to see the menu? 您需要看菜单吗? 点菜就餐的典型次序是:找一张桌子坐下-看菜单-点菜-付钱-离开。英语语言的表达基本上也是依照次顺序。“订餐”在英文中有两种说法,即to book a table 和 make a reservation。在英国以及在其它很多国家,餐厅一般划分为吸烟区和非吸烟区。一进餐厅,服务员会主动征询客人的意见,然后引领客人前往所选择的区域就餐。
