第八天

来 and 去, coming and going

Guardian:
我去看看还有什么饭菜 (Shen Wei, making up an excuse to go play with knives in the kitchen: I'll go see what food is left.)
不用你来请，我也会自己去的。(Zhao Yunlan trying not to shoot the messenger: you didn't need to come get me, I'd have gone by myself.)
你来了。(Shen Wei, at the very end: You came/You've come. ;( )

My practice:
我明天会去书店买一些书。
小番茄的植物长大了吧，你来看一看。
除非周三，他每天都去公司。（probably 上班 makes more sense, but...).

Appending it on as 来上班 or 去上班 both work too! Though 去公司 probably is better if you're specifically meaning work-in-office.

🎵不要问我从哪里来，我的故乡在远方~🎵

再过两个星期就要新年了，超市场每天都好多人来来去去，好不热闹。大家买了年货吗？

[scytale]

只剩两个星期了？真快。我还以为一月份刚开始呢。

我什么都没有买，你呢？

二月一号是新年~🎵 [*crucial clarification: I actually dislike basically all CNY music LOL]

光阴似箭，呵呵。我们这儿初一初二放假，而且除夕还是拜一呢…好想干脆请假，来个五天假期………

现在疫情又不能拜年，所以也没准备什么特别的，就买了些饼干，顺便送送同事！然后除夕吃个团圆饭吧

We should have a post on greetings closer to date, lmao.

两个星期！！！！！ Where did the time go!

因为疫情 (thank you for using that below, I didn't know it!) 我很多星期没去中国超市了。

谢谢！ Both in this context, so that's good to know.

哇哦，真的呀。我们的新年已经过去了，没吃日本的年货（不太好吃的哈哈）但给了侄子侄女红包。。。

[presumenothing]

新年2.0 hahaha (though for general reference, you can distinguish Lunar/Chinese New Year as 农历新年 vs regular ol' 1st of January New Year)

好想念收红包的日子……但还好，我也没什么人好送，不算亏。

农历新年，谢谢啊。说春节也行吧？（可能你已知道，在日本说“旧正月”呢，哈哈）

[presumenothing]

春节当然也行！只不过我们东南亚这一带“农历新年”说惯了，恐怕“春节”可能…… 会有人………… 听不懂😂………… 但中国大陆应该都是说春节吧。

嗯，这我知道！好可爱的名称哈哈。我还发现日本好像也有庆祝人日？虽然是1月7日，而不是正月初七。
