英國人是出了名的愛道歉?！暗狼浮?用英語怎么說？在口語會話中，除了可以說 “I'm sorry.” 以外，還有哪些語句可以用來表示自己因犯錯而感到抱歉？看視頻，學習用不同的方式說 “對不起”。

文字稿

Hi, I'm Sam from BBC Learning English. People in the UK have a reputation for saying sorry a lot, so let's have a look at different ways you can use to do this.

So:
- You can say sorry
- You can be sorry
- And you can apologise

In each case, we use the preposition 'to' with a person and 'for' to give the reason we're apologising:

I said sorry to my friend for forgetting her birthday.

After 'for' you can use a gerund or a noun.

But if you want a simple statement to say I was wrong, you can use any of these:

My bad.
My mistake.
My apologies. 
It's all my fault.
Please forgive me. 
I take full responsibility. 
It won’t happen again. 

Careful who you say these to – my bad! is very informal and you would probably only say it after making a small mistake. It won't happen again is probably better in more serious situations.

用法總結

1. 常用的表示 “道歉” 的說法有：say sorry（說對不起）；be sorry（感到抱歉）；apologise（道歉）。我們可以用介詞 “to” 說明 “向” 某人道歉；用 “for” 引出 “為” 某事或某原因而道歉，“for” 后面可加名詞或 “-ing” 動名詞。 

• I said sorry to my friend for forgetting her birthday.
• I'm sorry for the incovenience.
• She apologised to her brother for breaking his toy by accident.
• I aplogise for my inapropriate joke earlier.

2. 口語中常見的簡單道歉句式如下。注意使用句子的場合，以下句子按比較輕松、不正式至比較嚴肅、正式的順序排列。

• My bad.
• My mistake.
• My apologies.
• It's all my fault.
• Please forgive me.
• I take full responsibility.
• It won’t happen again.
