Back
  • Megha, hey. You are ready so early today?
  • Yeah.
  • What about breakfast?
  • Should I make you some?
  • No, I better get going.
  • I'll have it on the way.
  • Okay.
  • By the way, where are you going so early in the morning?
  • The electricity bill is due today.
  • If we don't pay it today, we will be charged a penalty.
  • So, I thought I'll pay it on my way to the college.
  • Relax! You don't have to do it.
  • I have already paid it online.
  • Really? When did you do that?
  • Last night. You'd slept by then.
  • You'd slept by then.
    "You'd slept by then."は、英英語・米英語では"You’d gone to bed by then."と言う。
  • Thanks, Shweta. That's a relief.
  • Chalo. Let's have breakfast.
  • Chalo
    "chalo"はヒンディー語で「歩く」という意味の"chalna"を命令形にした語で、このような文脈の場合は「よし」や「さあやろう」といった意味になる。
  • Let me cook the breakfast today.
