Dr.J: Ladies and gentlemen, this is Dr. J. Do you know what it means to "tie one on"? to "tie one on." What that means is it’s an informal way to say to go have a drink -to go have a drink with a friend. In this audio, Dylan and Patricia are talking about going to get a drink together so they can "tie one on." Ladies and gentlemen, it’s good to "tie one on" sometimes, but don’t drink too much while you’re studying English. I’m afraid you’ll forget everything the next day.
Dr.J: 女士们先生们,我是J博士。你知道“tie one on”是什么意思吗?去“tie one on”。这句话的意思是一种非正式的方法来说去喝一杯。和朋友去喝上一杯。在这个音频中,迪伦和帕特里夏正在说一起去喝一杯,所以他们可以“喝一杯”。女士们先生们,偶尔“喝一杯”是好的的,但是喝太多在你学习英语的时候,我恐怕隔天你就忘记所有的东西了。
Patricia:Hey, I want to go to the Greenhill Bar tonight. Do you want to come with me?
Dylan:Are you saying you want to go "tie one on" with me?
Patricia:Exactly. Are you interested?
Dylan:Hmm. Definitely, but I don’t know where the Greenhill Bar is.
Patricia:Don’t worry about it. I’ll have my driver come pick you up.
Dylan:Ah, sounds like a plan then.
Patricia:Let’s go out and enjoy the nightlife together.
Dylan:Let’s go for it!
Patricia:嗨,我今晚要去格林希尔酒吧,跟我一块儿去吗?
Dylan:你是打算和我一醉方休吗?
Patricia:正是。你有兴趣吗?
Dylan:唔。当然啊,但我不知道格林希尔酒吧在哪里。
Patricia:别担心。我会让我的司机去接你。
Dylan:啊,听起来真不错。
Patricia:我们一起去享受一下夜生活吧。
Dylan:我们走!
