每日一句初级口语第59期:让我们折中一下  

Let's split the difference. 让我们折中一下。,用法透视,买东西时，与对方讨价还价，各不相让，最后就可以用这句话来建议各让一步，达成一致。,支持范例,1. OK. Let's split the difference, and then I'll take it.
好吧，我们折中一下，我就买。,2. In that case, let's split the difference.
这样的话，让我们折中一下。,3. Let's split the difference. I'll give you 100.
我们折中一下，我出一百。,会话记忆,A: This blouse is a special offer today. You can have it at 10% off the regular price.
这件衬衫是今天的特别推荐商品，价钱可以打九折。,B: It's nice, but still too expensive. Can you give me a 20% discount?
是不错。但还是太贵了。能打八折吗？,A: No. 10% is my last word.
不行，最多打九折。,B: Come on. Let's split the difference, 15%.
算了，让我们折中一下，八五折吧。,听我来囉嗦：,上文的例子中last word 是一个固定词组，意为：最后一句话，决定性的话，最终决定。例如：
His wife always gets in the last word on everything. 凡事最后的决定权总是操在他太太手上。
但是大家在用这个短语时一定要仔细，千万不能错用成“last words（临终遗言，遗书）”。否则当你说“I'll give you 100 Yuan and this is my last words.”就成了“我只出100块。这是我的遗言。”
