标题: Something about SALE [打印本页] 作者: chadley91 时间: 2003-7-29 17:22 标题: Something about SALE "on sale"=price has been reduced
"for sale" is not exactly the same as "on sale"
"X dollars off"=original price has been reduced by X dollars
"asking $3000 o.b.o."= somebody sells something for $3000 and agrees to consider selling it for less if he does not get $3000, o.b.o.= "or best offer"
"takeout service"=somebody will take all you bought and load it into your car, which is definitely not the same as "take somebody out", which is in turn different from "to go out with somebody"
