Didn't you hear about that? 你沒有聽說嗎？ Didn't you hear about that? They are going to divorce. 你沒有聽說嗎？他們要離婚了。 Didn't you hear about that? The meeting was canceled.
A: I've been waiting here in the conference room for ten minutes already. What time does our meeting start? Where is everyone anyway? 我在會議室已經等了十分鐘，會議什麼時候開始？其他人都在哪兒？ B: Didn't you hear about that? Our meeting was postponed until Friday. 你沒聽說嗎？會議推到週五了。 A: What? The meeting was postponed? No one told me anything about it. 什麼？會議推遲了？沒人告訴我啊。 B: Didn't you get the memo? 你沒有看到備忘錄嗎？ A: What memo? There haven't been any memos this whole week. I check my in-box every day, and I haven't seen anything. 什麼樣的備忘錄？整個這一週我也沒見過什麼備忘錄，每天我都在查收文蘭，什麼也沒看見。 B: The memo went out three days ago. It should have made it to your in-box, but maybe it got lost in all the clutter on your desk. 備忘錄是三天前發出去的，應該放進你的收文欄了，但也可能夾在你辦公桌上那堆亂七八糟的東西里面。 A: You know how things get piled up on my desk when I am busy. I know that sometimes I do misplace things, but I always read all the memos that go around. They go directly to my in-box, are you sure it was sent to the whole office. 你也知道我忙的時候桌上東西會堆成山，我也清楚，有時候我我會把東西放錯地方，但所有發下來的備忘錄我都會看的，這些備忘錄都會直接放進我的收文籃，你肯定所有辦公室都發了嗎？ B: It should have gone around to everybody. They also posted a copy of the memo in the break-room. Don't you ever look at the messages posted on the bulletin board. 應該發給所有的人了，他們還在休息室貼了一張備忘錄的複印件，你也沒看到公告欄上貼的信息嗎? A: I'm usually too busy to take a bunch of coffee breaks and gossip by the water cooler. Anyway, I'm sure the memo never got to my in-box. I'll have to talk to our secretary about it. 我總是忙的顧不上喝咖啡休息一下，或者在水冷卻器旁跟人閒聊，不管怎樣，我肯定我的收文籃裏沒有備忘錄，我要去找祕書談談。
