     In Canada and the U.S.A, people enjoy entertaining (请客) at home. They often invite friends over
for a meal, a party, or just for coffee and a conversation.
     Here are the kinds of things people say when they invite someone to their home:
     "Would you like to come over for dinner Saturday night?"
     "Hey, we’re having a party on Friday. Can you come?"
     To reply to an invitation, either say thank you and accept, or say you‘re sorry and give an excuse:
     "Thanks, I‘d love to. What time would you like me to come?" or "Oh, sorry, I have tickets for a
movie."
     Sometimes, however (但是), people use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not real
invitations. For example:
     "Please come over for a drink sometime (某个时候)."
     "Why not get together for a party sometime?"
     "Why don’t you come over and see us sometime soon?"
     They are really just polite ways of ending a conversation. They are not real invitations because
they don‘t mention (提到) a specific (确定的) time or date. They just show that the person is trying
to be friendly. To reply the expressions like these, people just say"Sure, that would be great!" or
"OK. Yes, thanks."
     So next time when you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or
the person is just being friendly?
