迷你对话学地道口语第50期:怀孕

　　迷你对话：
A: Where are you going?
你去哪儿？
B: I'll accompany my wife to the hospital.
我陪妻子去医院。
A: What's wrong with her.
她怎么了？
B: She is expecting.
她怀孕了。
A: Congratulations¹ to you.
祝贺你。
B: Thank you.
词海拾贝：
1. be expecting 怀孕
讲解：expect sb的意思是“确知某人要来而等待他”，正如一位准母亲等待孩子出生的心情，所以expecting表示“怀孕”，该习语为非正规的口语表达方式。
Eg. Don't make your wife angry as she was expecting.
不要惹你的妻子发火，她怀着孕。
2. accompany sb to somewhere：陪某人去某处
Eg. Would you like to accompany me to my factory.
你愿意陪我去工厂吗？

1 congratulations
