生活口语

Hello, I'd like to book a ticket to Tokyo tomorrow morning.

您好，我想订一张明天早上去东京的机票。

Please hold on. Let me check if there are tickets available.

请不要挂断电话，我看下是否有您需要的机票。

重点讲解:

Please don't hang up. I'll see if there are tickets available.

Please hold on. Let me check if there are tickets available.

我们都知道短语hang up的意思是“挂断电话”，因此通常也会把“不要挂电话”翻译成don't hang up,不过老外在日常对话中根本不会这样说，他们用的是hold on这个短语，表示让对方“稍等一会儿”。
