用法：1. 汉语中的“请随便吃”，译成英语不能是 Please eat, 可用Please help yourself.
2. 汉语中的“吃饭”，英语通常用 have 或 take, 其实也可以用eat, 只是不那么常见。如：
He ate his breakfast quickly. 他快快地吃了早餐。
We have [take, eat] three meals a day. 我们每天吃三餐。
3. 比较 eat up 与 eat out：前者意为“吃完”、“消灭”；后者表示“在外面吃”、“下馆子”。如：
Eat up your dinner. 把你的饭吃完。
The flames ate up the forest. 大火把树林烧光了。
I’m too tired to cook tonight; shall we eat out? 今晚我累得不想做饭了，咱们出去吃饭好吗?
4. 许多汉语中的“吃”译成英语不能用eat，如：
Do have one more. 务请再吃一个。
This food tastes good. 这菜好吃。
She’s become used to a vegetarian diet. 她已习惯吃素。
