Way back in 2010 I did a two part series on the word bite. During this summer vacation you can revisit that lesson here.
The most useful expression is:
to grab a bite
Bite means ひとくちin Japanese. Kids often say:
Wow, that looks good! Gimme a bite!
which in Japanese would be:
ううわー美味しそう!一口ちょうだい!
When someone uses grab a bite they are talking about having a quick light meal.
Wanna grab a bite together sometime?
This is a casual invitation to a date.
I'm hungry, let's grab a bite somewhere.
This means let's take a break and eat something.
Another interesting use of bite is an idiom you can use when you are full.
Man, I'm stuffed. I couldn't eat another bite.
or
I'm so full if I eat another bite I'll explode!
Have a nice weekend,
Phil
