Don't worry.I can loan you some money to tide you over.I've been saving for a rainy day.
不用担心我可以借给你些钱渡过难关。我一直在攒钱以备不时之需。
It's so nice of you to do so.I promise I'll pay you back as soon as the business looks up.
太感谢你了。我保证生意一有好转,我就还你钱。
重点讲解:
I've been saving up in case of need.
I've been saving for a rainy day.
我们常说“攒钱以备不时之需”,英文中也有对应的表达,即save for a rainy day,字面意思是“要为小雨天储备”,也就是说要“未雨绸繆”,虽然save up in case of need 也可表达此意,但save for a rainy day 更地道一些。
