Wine is usually served in pubs by the glass but you can also order a bottle to share with friends. 酒吧賣紅酒一般用葡萄酒杯賣，但顧客也可以買一整瓶紅酒與朋友一起分享。
Wine can be described by its colour (red, white or rose and its taste (sweet or dry). 紅酒（或葡萄酒）可以根據其顏色（紅、白或玫瑰色）和味道（味甜還是味幹）來區分。

Spirits (whisky, gin, vodka, rum etc.) are usually ordered by the glass or by the measure (a single or a double) but never by the bottle in a pub. 烈性酒（威士忌、杜松子酒、伏特加、朗姆酒等）通常都是按杯賣，或小量杯（一杯或兩杯）賣，但酒吧從不賣整瓶烈性酒給客人。
Spirits can be ordered with a mixer (water, lemonade, etc.), just with ice or with nothing at all. 客人可以要求酒吧將烈性酒與果水、檸檬汽水甚至冰混合，也可以只喝烈性酒。

To buy a round (v): Often when people are in a group, each person takes it in turn to buy drinks for everyone in the group. You can say:
It's my/your/her/his round 當人們三三兩兩聚集在某個酒吧一起喝酒時，每人都會輪流爲其他人買酒。這時，你就可以說：該我/該你/該她/該他買了。
Addressing people informally: If people know each other very well or if one person is much older than the other one, they might address each other informally using love, dear, hen, or pet. But it's not usually appropriate for a man to use these terms with a woman, in the way that Tim does with Alice 私下裏如何稱呼對方：如果人們相互之間非常熟悉，或某人比另外一人年長，他們可以在私下裏用love, dear, hen 或 pet 來稱呼對方。但是，通常男士不能用這些稱謂稱呼女士。在這篇對話中，Tim 稱 Alice 爲”love”。
