Tips在英文裡不同的意思
示範對話
Little Ma: Big Ha, I have a friend who is currently on a working holiday in America.
Big Ha: That’s cool! Are they enjoying their time there?
Little Ma: Yes, but they work in hospitality, so they rely on tips. My friend was wondering if there is a polite way to ask customers for a tip?
Big Ha: To be honest, it isn’t really polite to ask for tips. However, if your friend really needs to remind their customers that they would like to receive a tip, then they can say, 「Tips are most welcomed and appreciated.」
Little Ma: Thanks for the tip, Big Ha!
小馬:大哈,我有個朋友目前正在美國度過工作假期。
大哈:這很酷啊!他在那玩的玩的開心嗎?
小馬:開心啊,但是因為他們是做服務類的工作,所以他們要依靠小費。我的朋友想問有沒有一種比較禮貌的方式去問客人要小費?
大哈:說實話,要小費本來就不是很禮貌。但是如果你的朋友真的想要提醒客人給小費的話,他可以說,「小費是最受歡迎和青睞的」。
小馬:謝謝你的提示,大哈!
