Just a minute!

 

 

be right with you: 곧 갈게

 

예) "Just a minute, Fred," his mother said.

 

"I'll be right with you."

 

wash something down: 1) clean 액체로 물건/표면을 깨끗이 씻다.

 

   2) eat 음료와 함께 약을 삼키거나 음식을 먹다

 

예) Fred washed the cookies down with a glass of milk.

 

It's your turn to walk the dog. 네가 개를 산책시킬 시간이야.

 

mop (up): 대걸레로 닦다.

 

Fred found his brother Paul mopping up the big puddle

 

that the little dog had just made on the kitchen floor.

 

What took you so long? 왜 이렇게 오래 걸렸어?

 

"What took you so long?" Paul scolded Fred.

 

"I told you Rags had to go!"

 

A minute is how long it takes to count,

 

1분은 그것이 세는데 얼마나 걸렸는지를 나타낸다.

 

second hand: 시계의 초침

 

go around: 회전하다.

 

A munute is 60 seconds.

 

That's how long it takes the big second hand on my watch to go around once.

 

And how long it takes the numbers to change on that clock.

 

From then on: 그 때부터 계속

 

From then on, Fred knew just how long a minute was.

 

And his whole family knew better than to say,

 

"just a minute," unless they really meant it!
