Basic For Here or To Go · 基础堂食带走
basicHi! Welcome to Five Guys. What can I get you?
你好！欢迎来到 Five Guys。要点什么？
Hi, can I get a cheeseburger with fries and a Coke, please?
你好，一个芝士汉堡加薯条和可乐。
💡 在美国快餐店点餐很直接——说你要什么就行。不需要太多寒暄。说 'Can I get...' 是最常用的开头。
You got it. Is that for here or to go?
好的。堂食还是带走？
For here, please.
在这里吃。
💡 'For here' 堂食通常用托盘和餐盘上菜，'To go' 会用纸袋打包。有些快餐店两种都用纸包装，差别不大。
Alright, your total is $14.50. Cash or card?
好的，总共14.50美元。现金还是刷卡？
Card, please. Can I tap?
刷卡。可以碰一下（感应支付）吗？
💡 美国越来越多地方支持 contactless/tap 支付（Apple Pay、Google Pay、信用卡感应）。但不是所有地方都支持，问一下是好习惯。
Yep, just tap right here on the reader. Perfect — payment went through. Your order number is 47. We'll call it out when it's ready.
可以，在这个读卡器上碰一下。完美——付款成功。你的号码是47。好了我们会叫号。

堂食还是带走？
Actually, it's a little complicated. I want to eat the sandwich here, but can I get the soup and the cookie to go? Is that possible?
其实有点复杂。三明治我想在这吃，但汤和饼干能带走吗？可以吗？
💡 在美国完全可以一部分堂食一部分带走。收银员不会觉得奇怪。直接说你的需求就好。
Totally fine! I'll plate the sandwich for here and pack the soup and cookie in to-go containers. The soup lid seals pretty tight so you don't have to worry about spilling.
完全可以！三明治用盘子堂食，汤和饼干装打包盒。汤盖封得很紧，不用担心洒。
Perfect. Oh, one more thing — I ordered a large coffee but I changed my mind. Can I get a small instead? Is it too late to change?
太好了。对了还有一件事——我点了大杯咖啡但改主意了。能换成小杯吗？来得及改吗？
💡 在美国的快餐店/咖啡厅，只要还没做好，改单通常都可以。已经做了的话就不太方便了。说 'change my mind' 是很地道的表达。
No problem, I haven't rung it up yet. Small coffee instead of large — that actually saves you a dollar fifty. New total is $13.00.
没问题，还没输入呢。小杯替换大杯——其实还省了一块五。新的总价是13美元。
Great, thanks for being flexible. Here's my card.
太好了，谢谢你这么灵活。给你我的卡。
💡 美国快餐店改单通常没问题。如果已经做了改不了，他们会说 'Sorry, it's already being made.' 不要生气，下次点单时注意就好。
You're all set! Sandwich will be out in about 5 minutes. The soup and cookie are ready to grab from the pickup counter whenever you leave.
搞定！三明治大约5分钟。汤和饼干在取餐柜台已经准备好了，你走的时候拿就行。
