Feifei
大家好，歡迎收聽 BBC英語教學的 “地道英語” 節目。I'm Feifei.
Beth
And I'm Beth. We have an expression which is used to say you have nothing left of something specific, particularly something that other people want – the phrase is 'I'm out'. Other pronouns can be used so we can say 'we're out' or 'you're out' as well.
Feifei
我們用 “I'm out” 來表示 “我這里沒有之前談話里提到的一樣東西了”，特別是當我們需要用到這樣東西的時候。這個表達里的代詞可以替換，所以我們還可以說 “we're out” 或者 “she's out”、“he's out”、“they are out”。咱們來講講這個表達的具體用法。
Beth
Do you remember that amazing new coffee I've been drinking? I know you like it, and I was going to get some for your birthday, but when I went to buy it, they were completely out.
Feifei
Oh no! Beth 本來想給我買我特別喜歡的咖啡作生日禮物，可是她發現 “they were completely out（店家那完全沒貨了）”。Thanks for trying anyway. Maybe there is another variety we could try?
Beth
Well, I thought that, but it turned out there was a complete shortage of coffee – they were out of everything! They only had tea.
Feifei
It doesn't sound like a great shop if they don't have enough stock. So, did you buy me some tea?
Beth
Well, I wanted to, but then I realised I didn't have any money. I was out. Let's hear some more examples.
Examples
A: I'm doing a sponsored run. Can you give me some change?
B: Sorry, erm, I'm all out.
A: Are you still giving away free chocolate?
B: Sorry, we're out!
I can't believe how popular that new book was. We're out already. Let's order more.

你正在收聽的是 BBC英語教學的 “地道英語” 節目。上面我們學習了如何用 “I'm out” 來表達 “我這里沒有你提到的那樣東西了，一點也不剩”。
Beth
Now we've been using 'out', but it's also really common to say 'I'm all out' or 'I'm completely out'.
Feifei
我們也可以用 “I'm all out” 或者 “I'm completely out” 來表達同樣的意思，強調 “真的一點也沒有了”，尤其是用在表示沒有錢的上下文中：“我真的沒錢了”。That reminds me, Beth, you still need to buy me something for my birthday.
Beth
Well, start thinking about what you'd like. I'm all out of ideas! Bye for now!
Feifei
Bye-bye!
