轻松日记商务职场篇 第95期:回去工作

核心句型：
I have to toddle off and go back to work now.
我必须回去工作了。
toddle是形容小孩子蹒跚学步、东倒西歪地走，而toddle off在口语中则是：“出发，动身，暂时离开”的意思。因此，当美国人说"I have to toddle off and go back to work now."时，他/她要表达的意思就是:"I have to leave and go back to work now."、"I couldn't stay here any longer because I have to go back to work."。
情景对白：
Colleague: I love hiking, too. Nice to chat with you!
同事：我也很喜欢徒步旅行呢，和你聊天真愉快！
Shirley: Me too. But time is up. I have to toddle off and go back to work now.
