Hit the hay -寝る

「寝る時間だよ」って英語でなんて言うんだろう。カッコいいフレーズないかな。

例えば、ママと子どもの会話でこんなのはどうでしょう

Mom; It's time to hit the hay.

Son; Please Mom let me finish watching this movie.
Mom; It's 10pm already, you need to rest.
Son ; Five more minuets please, and I'll retire to bed.
Mom; Ok. Five more minuets.

Time is money-時は金なり

よくこの言葉を１０代の息子たちに使います。スマホ依存症かと、、心配になりますが。。
ここではよく見かけるカップルの会話を使い練習してみましょう

A couple are talking ...

Boyfriend:  Do you think we should hire a wedding planner?

Girlfriend:  Well, we are both extremely busy with our jobs and lives.

Boyfriend:  And time is money. A wedding planner could save us a lot of time. We would not have to exhaustively research vendors and make endless arrangements.

Girlfriend:  I agree. Let's not waste our time. We can still make all the major decisions. And if we hire a wedding planner, we will have more time to make money to pay for the planner.
