I happened to see the expression‎ 'foot the bill', which means 'to be responsible for
<br>
<br>
paying the cost of sth'.
<br>
<br>
But can I also say 'I'll foot a part of bill for the party.'?
<br>
<br>
It's totally understandable, I guess.
<br>
<br>
What I wonder is would the native speakers of English actually say that?

That is a good answer. Mr Eu, one thing even more interesting is that "foot part of the bill" sounds better than "foot a part of the bill". And "partly foot the bill" may be good enough, too.
첫댓글 That's an interesting question. Have you ever thought of turning to Google for help? You can type "foot part of the bill for" and see what you get.
