미국 캐나다 생활 영어: Call it a day

안녕하세요

미국 캐나다 실생활 영어 알려드리는 카니잉글리시입니다 ^^

​

"Call it a day"

하루 동안 한 일을 멈추거나 마무리하는 것을 의미하는 관용구입니다.

현재의 활동이나 업무를 끝내고 쉬거나 다른 일을 처리할 때가 되었음을 시사합니다.

특히 어떤 일을 하루 동안 마무리했거나,

더 이상의 노력이 생산적이지 않다고 느낄 때 사용될 수 있습니다.

 

한 마디로

"오늘은 여기까지, 하루를 마감하다"라는 소리입니다. ^^

​

예문으로 뉘앙스 확실히 파악하고 가겠습니다.

고고!
