我饿了”你还在用 I’m hungry 来表达？out啦！

我来做饭。

I’ll cook food for us.（不地道）

I’ll cook something for us.

Faith: What should we have for lunch?

What should we eat for lunch? (不地道)

What should we have for lunch?（地道）

eat在美国给人的感觉就是“吃，吃， 吃”，好像是一个吃货，have也有吃的意思，但是它相对文雅一些。所以，在美国，“咱们中午吃什么”会用第二种。

Barbie: Um, what’s your favorite food?

favorite 最爱的

what’s your favorite weather? 你最喜欢的天气是什么？

My favorite weather is sunny. 我最喜欢天晴。

what’s your favorite color? 你最喜欢的颜色是什么？

Faith: I wanna try Chinese food.

I wanna try Chinese food.

I wanna eat Chinese food.

同样，这里也涉及到一个用词文雅度的问题。 我想“吃”中国菜，这里的吃其实就是“尝试”的意思，用“try”会更文雅。
