戴尔英语红宝书:I'm going to see my tailor
I’m going to see my tailor.
Victor: Hi,大家好,我是Victor,
Nancy: Nancy!
Victor: 今天我们讨论的Topic是:
Nancy:I’m going to see my tailor.
Victor:我准备去找我的裁缝。
Nancy:A tailor is someone whose job it is to make clothing – in China, tailors are very cheap, and make some very nice clothing. Tailors can also do alterations, which means making changes to existing clothes.
Victor:在中国找裁缝做衣服很便宜,但在美国就恰恰相反。
Nancy:To take something in means to make it smaller; to let something out means to make it bigger. When we say something is tailor-made, it means it fits that person exactly, this is with clothing or anything else.
Victor:Nancy刚才说的tailor-made就是量身定做。
Nancy:I’m going to see my tailor.
Victor:I’m going to see my tailor.
Nancy: That’s all for today. See you!
Victor: See you!
