しなくともよいと言う
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.
