在美国大片里经常看到这两个表达法：gonna gotta,gonna =going to,gotta=have got to .
1.be gonna = be going to,口语常见用法,注意前面要有be,后面跟动词原形.
Are you gonna be there if I was down?我失意的时候你会在吗?('N Sync:Are You Gonna Be There)
I'm gonna run away and never say goodbye.我要逃掉,不辞而别.(Linkin Park:Runaway)
I am gonna be there at 3:00.我三点时会到那.
(这句话也可以说成,"I am going to be there at 3:00." 或是 "I will be there at 3:00." 也是蛮常用的.此外,老美也喜欢说,"I will catch you there." 例如二个人约好要在体育馆见面,你就可以说,"I'll catch you in the gym.")
2.gotta=got to (相当于have to 不得不,必须)
There's something I gotta tell ya我有点事要和你说.
I've gotta get outta here.我得离开这儿了.
I've gotta catch the bus.我要去赶公共汽车了.
