(1116)＜2946＞: split the check / 값을 나누어서 내다

[williamahn]

                ***** Split the check *****

                             (값을 나누어서 내다)

              Tips=[1]= "split"은 "몫을 나누다"라는 뜻이 있고,

                                          "check"은 계산서(bill) 의 뜻을 갖이도 있기 때문에

                                          어떤 의미인지 쉽게 이해가 될것이다.

                                          그래서 식당에서 각자가 식사한 음식값을  "나누어서 내자"라고 할 때

                                          "Let's split the check"라고 하면 된다.

        (1116)(A) So, I heard you went out for dinner

                               with Mike last right.

                               How was it?

                        (B) It was a little awkward. 

                              He took me to that fancy trstaurant

                              on 21st Street. 

                              The food was good, and we had a nice time-

                              but he tried to treat me. 

                              I told him we should split the check instead.

                       (A) I can't believe you passed up an oppertunity

                             for free food! 

                             So, what was the damage?

                     = awkward :어색한    =pass up an oppertunity:기회를 포기하다   

                                      =What's the damage?:지불해야 할 금액이 얼마죠?

                                                                      [본문  해석]

                               (A) 어제 밤에 마이크랑 저녘 먹어ㅆ다 면서요? 어땠어요?

                                          (B) 좀 어색했어요. 21번가에 있는 고급 레스트랑에 데려 가드라구요.

                                                음식은 맛있었고 좋은 시간을 보냈는데,식사를 자기가 사겠다고 하드라구요.

                                                제가 그러지 말고 음식 값을 나누어서 내자고 했어요.

                                         (A) 굳이 돈을 내지 않고 먹을 수 있는 기회를 놓치다니요! 그래서 얼마나 나왔어요?
