Chit chat 闲聊
英语课
Larry告诉李华他连续几天给他哥哥打电话，可是总也找不到他。
LH: Larry， 你那么急着找你哥哥，有要紧的事吗?
LL: No, not really. I just want to chit chat.
LH: Chit chat是什么意思啊?
LL: To Chit Chat is to talk about general things that aren't very important. I don't really have anything specific 1 or urgent 2 to talk about.
LH: Chit Chat就是闲聊。那你和你哥哥平时都闲聊些什么呢?
LL: We chit chat about what is going on at work, what we've been doing for fun lately, and even about the weather.
LH: 嗯，聊工作，生活和天气，看来你们哥俩的关系很不错嘛。 我也喜欢和家人聊天，特别是和我妈妈。
LL: Chit chatting can be pleasant, but some times it can be annoying.
LH: 是啊，有时候聊天不仅没有乐趣反而令人烦恼，就好像昨天我正忙着写论文，我的朋友 Rachel 打电话来和我聊天。
LL: So, did you tell her you didn't have time to chit chat?
LH: 一开始我没好意思告诉他我很忙。 然后聊了一会儿以后我对她说我在忙着写论文呢。
LL: I know Rachel. She really likes to chit chat. Did she get off the phone right away, when you told her you need to work?
LH: Rachel的确很喜欢聊天。我说我要赶快写论文，她还是不挂电话。真拿她没办法。
LL: Well, I have to say, Li Hua, I don't mind chit chatting with you.
LH: 你也喜欢和我聊天?其实我也喜欢和朋友聊天。像现在这样，边喝茶边聊，很放松也很有意思。 当然要作功课的时候就不能chit chat了。
LL: That's right! I think it's time for you to work on your paper, and I need to try to call my brother again.
