If you would like to offer someone a cup of tea, you can say "fancy a cuppa?"

如果你想請別人喝茶，你可以說：「fancy a cuppa?」

'Fancy...?' is a shortened form of 'do you fancy' and means 'do you want?'

「Fancy...?」是 「do you fancy」的簡稱，意思是「你想不想？」

For example,

例如，

Fancy a chat?

想不想聊天？

Fancy a beer?

'A cuppa' is the way we pronounce 'a cup of' in spoken english.

「A cuppa」是 「a cup of」英文口語的發音。

When we say a cuppa, we use a schwa sound at the start and end.

當我們說 cuppa 時，我們在開頭跟結尾會發出 /ə/ 的音。

A cup of coffee.

一杯咖啡。

A cup of hot chocolate.

一杯熱巧克力。

A cup of tea.

一杯茶。

In addition to saying a cuppa instead of a cup of in spoken english, we can also use a cuppa as a noun meaning 'a cup of tea'.

除了在英文口語中說 a cuppa 來代替 a cup of 之外，我們還可以把 a cuppa 作為一個名詞，意思「是一杯茶」。

So, "fancy a cuppa?" means "do you want a cup of tea?"

所以，「fancy a cuppa?」是指「你想喝杯茶嗎？」

Fancy a cuppa, anyone?

有人想喝杯茶嗎？
