科学怪人
Neil: Hello, this is Real English from BBC Learning English, I'm Neil.
Helen: And I'm Helen. Hello!
Neil: In Real English, we look at words and phras that you might not find in your dictionary.
Helen: 英语是⼀种富有成语和不同语⾔习惯的语⾔,所以要想学习地道纯正的英国英语,了解英国⼈常⽤的通俗语⾔和表达⽅式也是⾮常重要的。
Neil: Today's expression is 'a bite to eat'.
Helen: 听起来这个短语和吃有关,对不对Neil?
Neil: Yes, it certainly does have something to do with eating. To have a bite to eat means to go and have something to eat. Helen: 这种说法是指吃什么东西都⾏还是说是要吃正经的⼀顿饭呢?

掩饰的近义词Neil: It usually means to have a small amount of food – so a snack or a light meal – or it can just mean to go and eat some food or a meal.
如释负重的意思
Helen: Bite就是⽤嘴咬的意思,⽽a bite to eat⼀般就是专指随便的吃点什么东西或者吃顿便饭的意思。

Helen: 刚才他俩说的是a quick bite就是很快的吃点东西。所以a bite to eat也可以简单说成a bite – 都是咬⼀⼝什么东西吃,就是随便吃点东西的意思。
Neil: All this talk of food is making me hungry…
Helen: Shall we go for a bite to eat?
