Do you like to go out eating?

想不想出去吃呢?

有 次我問老美出去吃東西怎麼說, 他回答說一般出去吃飯, 他們只說 go to eat , go out eating 或是 eat out 而不會說 go to dinner, go for lunch, 也就是不需特地說中餐或是晚餐。所以後來老美問我剛去哪了, 我應該要說 I just went out eating, 而不會說 I just went to dinner. 小細節多注意, 你的英文會更棒。

如果要強調是去吃午餐或晚餐的話, 一般就直接說 lunch 或是 dinner,例如人家問你:"Where did you go?" 你就可以答說 "lunch." 。
