解释
Richy: The phrase “chip in” can be used in different situations. But in general it means contributing to something. For example - everybody chipped in to pay the bill.
Richy: “chip in” 可以在不同的情景中使用。但是一般情况下指做什么事情。比如:大家一起凑钱付账。
Nadia: Yes, right. The sentence you used means contributing some money.
Nadia: 是的,对。你刚说的句子中指的是凑钱。
Richy: But, as you know, it can also mean contributing to some discussion. Why don't you give us an example, Nadia?
Richy: 但是,你也知道,它也可以指共同做某个决定。怎么不举个例子呢,Nadia?
Nadia: Okay. For example - “If I could chip in, there are a couple of issues I'd like to raise.”
Nadia: 好,比方说:“如果我参加的话,我就能会提出很多问题。”
Richy: Yes. That's right. You know how to use it. Do you know any other ways chip in is used?
Richy: 对,就是这样,你知道怎么用。你知道“chip in”的别的用法吗?
Nadia: Yes. It could also mean interrupting a conversation. Like for example - “Some senior Army officials chipped in while we were talking, to say it was safe and there was no danger.”
Nadia: 嗯,还可以指打断谈话。比如:“我们讲话的时候,高级军官打断说,这里很安全,没有危险。”
Richy: Oh really. I never knew that. Thanks a lot. I know the other day Kim chipped in to make a point while we were discussing something important.
Richy: 哦,是哦。我没听过这种用法,谢谢。我知道有一天我们正在讨论一些重要的事情的时候,金打断了我们。
