English:
A standard natural English expression used to politely inform others that one is unable to converse at the present moment; the original Chinglish lacks the formal subject "it" and complete sentence structure required in English.
中文:
用于礼貌告知对方当下无法交谈的标准自然英文表达;原中式英语缺少英文中必需的形式主语“it”与完整句式结构。
该中式英语是中文“不方便说话”的直接翻译。英文中此类表达需用形式主语“it”引导,构成固定结构“It's not convenient to do sth.”,中式英语版本仅为碎片化短语而非完整句子。
