很多人都會(huì)在咖啡館看書、上網(wǎng),或者見朋友,大多是因?yàn)槟抢锓諊?、有無線網(wǎng)絡(luò),或者僅僅是喜歡那種小資情調(diào)。在韓國,人們把這種潮流發(fā)揮到了極致:他們把咖啡館當(dāng)成辦公室來用。
Coffice, a portmanteau term of coffee shop and office, is?used in South Korea to describe how coffee shops are used for work, study and socializing. Coffice is a coffee shop habitually used as an office by customers, who mooch its space, electricity, Wi-Fi and other resources. Presumably, they pay for the coffee.
Coffice(咖啡辦公室)是韓國很流行的一個(gè)合成詞(咖啡館+辦公室),指咖啡館在工作、學(xué)習(xí)或者社交活動(dòng)中常常被用到。被稱為coffice的咖啡館會(huì)被一些顧客習(xí)慣性地當(dāng)成辦公室來用,他們蹭著咖啡館的空間,電力、無線寬帶以及其他資源。而他們這樣做的理由,想必是因?yàn)樗麄円呀?jīng)為那里的咖啡買了單吧。
For example:
I’ll meet you at my coffice at 2pm. Here is the address.
咱們下午兩點(diǎn)在我常去辦公的咖啡館見面吧。這是那里的地址。
