우리 약속 시간을 변경할 수 있을까? 예상치 못한 일이 생겼어.

and I can't make it on Sunday. 그래서 일요일 약속을 지킬 수 없어서.

Karen : No, problem. When can we meet, then. 괜찮아. 그럼, 언제 만날까?

Ross : How about next Monday at the same time? 다음주 월요일 같은 시간에 어때?

Karen : Suits me fine. 좋아.


While I got you on the phone

Tim : Will you be free to have lunch with me tomorrow? 내일 나하고 점심 같이할 시간 있니?

Karen : Sure. 물론이죠.

Tim : Great. I'll pick you up at 12, ok? 좋아. 12시에 데리러 갈게, 어때?

Karen : All right. 좋아요.

Tim : While I got you on the phone, do me a favor, will you?

전화한 김에, 부탁 하나 해도 될까?

I'll pick up the tab

Tim : I'll pick up the tab. 내가 낼게.

Kate : You did last time, so this one is on me. 지난 번에 냈으니까 이번엔 내가 낼게요.

Tim : Did I? Anyway, I'll take care of the bill today. 내가? 어쨌든 오늘은 내가 낼게.

Kate : All right, if you insist. But the next one is on me.

그래요, 정 그러시다면. 담번엔 내가 낼게요.


Kate : Can I have the bill, please? 계산서 좀 갖다 주실래요?
Tim : No. My meal was much bigger and you paid last time, so I'll pick up the tab this time.

아니야. 내 음식이 더 비싼거고 지난번에 니가 계산했으니까 이번엔 내가 낼게.

Kate : Well, thank you. Then I'll get the tip. 그렇다면, 고마워. 그러면 팁은 내가 낼게.



Tim : Could you take these dishes away and bring me the bill?
이 접시들 좀 치워 주시고, 계산서 좀 갖다 주시겠어요?

네. 같이 계산해 드릴까요, 아니면 따로 갖다 드릴까요?

Tim : Just one, please. Kate, let me cover it this time.

그냥 하나로 주세요. 케이트, 이번에는 내가 살게.
