每次吃饭，小伙伴总会问：“你吃饱了吗？”这句话的英文可千万不能说Are you full?

你吃饱了吗≠ Are you full

full表达的是“已经饱了，不能再吃了”的状态，所以问“Are you full?”就像是在说“你是不是已经饱了，不能再吃了啊！”（有些不礼貌～）

“你吃饱了吗”可以这么问

“你吃饱了吗”可以这么问：

Have you had enough to eat?

Have you got enough (meat)?

从字面来看就是“（某食物）够不够吃？”，其实也就是在表达“你吃饱了吗？”

例句：

Have you had enough to eat? Want to get some more?

吃饱了吗?还要吃点别的吗?

类似的还有几个表达：

Would you like some more?
Would you like another (potato)?
Can I get you some more wine?

那么，别人问“你吃饱了吗？”，那该怎么回答人家呢?

我吃饱了≠I've had enough

I've had enough是“我受够了”，要是这么说，老外会觉得你不喜欢这些吃的（友谊的小船说翻就翻～）

吃饱了可以说：

I'm full.

反正自黑也没什么关系，就像我们吃饱了摸摸肚子，来一句“我吃得太多了！”

比“I'm full.”更礼貌些的还有：

I'm stuffed.

“I'm full is a slightly crude way of declining offers of further food. I'm stuffed is something one might say after a big meal, or to suggest either that one wants nothing more, or that, if one takes more, it will not be a large portion.”

“I'm full”是拒绝提供更多食物的一种略显粗鲁的表达方式。“I'm stuffed”是一个人在饱餐一顿之后会说的话，或者用来暗示一个人不想再多吃一点，或者，如果再吃点，也不会吃很多了。

还有哪些礼貌的回答拒绝主人提供更多食物给你呢？下面有几个例句可以直接用：

I couldn’t eat another bite I am so full/stuffed.

我吃不下了，我太饱了。

Everything was so delicious I am completely full.

这全都太好吃了，我吃得饱饱的。

I have had more than enough already, I just can’t eat any more.

我吃得够多了，吃不下别的了。
