很多中国人在说英语时,听起来没有礼貌。但这并不是因为他们本身没礼貌,而是还没有习惯英语的礼貌表达方式。比如,中国人在餐厅或咖啡厅,会说:"我想要一个汉堡包。"或者
"我想要一杯咖啡。"但是,如果直接把这些话翻译成英语就会成为"I want to have a hamburger."或"I want to have a coffee."老外们会觉得这样说话很没有礼貌,当然他们也不会直接告诉你。而在西方国家,老外们一般会说:" ?"或 ?
再比如,中国人在绝別人邀请的午宴或晚宴时,会说:"抱歉,我不能去,我还有別的安排。"翻译成英文就是"Sorry,I can't. I have another appointment."如果这样说,那别人第二次也许不会再邀请你了。老外们一般会这样说:" ."
Could I have a hamburger,please/Can I have a coffee,please That is a good idea!I would like to join in but I have another appointment today.

I ran into a stranger as he passed by. uOh,Fm sorry," was my reply. He said, "It's my fault. I didn't notice you."
We were very polite,this stranger and I. We said goodbye and continued our journey. But at home,a different story is told. How we treat our loved ones,young and old? Later that day,while I was cooking the evening meal,my daughter stood beside me very still.
When I turned,I nearly knocked her down. "Move out of the way," I shouted at her. My daughter walked away,with her little heart broken. I didn't realize how cruelly (冷酷地) I had spoken.
While I lay awake in bed,God's small voice came to me and said, "When dealing with a stranger,common courtesy (礼貌) you use; but the children you love,you seem to abuse. Look on the kitchen floor,and you will find some flowers there by the door. Those are the flowers your daughter brought for you. She picked them herself,pink,yellow and blue. Your daughter stood quietly not to spoil the surprise,and you never saw the tears in her eyes. " By this time I felt very small,and my tears began to fall.
I quietly went and knelt by her bed, "Wake up,little girl,wake up," I said. "Are these the flowers you picked for me?" My daughter smiled, "I found them,out by the tree. I picked them because they are pretty like you. I knew you would like them,especially the blue."
I said, "Daughter,I am sorry for the way I acted today;I should not have shouted at you that way. " My daughter said, "Oh,Mum,that's okay. I love you anyway."
I said, "Daughter,I love you too,and I do like the flowers,especially the blue."
