1. Almost there 快到了
Almost即係差啲嘅意思，there解「嗰到」，
所以當你啱啱出門口，仲要差唔多半個鐘先會到，
就可以先講“I’m almost there”，點都好過你話「我啱啱先出門口呀！」
例子：
A:“Hey. where are you? I’ve been waiting for fifteen minutes already.”
B:“Sorry, got held up in a traffic jam. I’m almost there!”
2. A couple blocks away 再兩個路口就到了
A couple解「一啲」或者「幾個」，block即係街區，成句就解「仲爭一兩條街先會到」。
例子：
A:“Mom, I’m getting late for first period.”
B:“Don’t worry, honey. We’re only a couple blocks away.”
3. Will be there any minute 馬上就到了
Any minute係隨時或者即將嘅意思，所以當你講“Will be there any minute”，代表你隨時即刻就會到目的地。
例子：
A:“Crown, please don’t tell me you just woke up.”
B:“No, I’m already on my way. I’ll be there any minute.”
4. Will be there in a bit 等下就到了
Bit解「一啲啲」，成句就解「再要多啲啲時間就會到」，而bit又可以用moment或者second取代，意思一樣！
例子：
A:“Crown, boss is looking for you in the office.”
B:“Got it! I’ll be there in a bit.”
5. Just a sec 再一下就到了
Sec係second嘅簡寫，成句解「過多一秒我就到啦！」當然呢個係誇張法啦，不過就代表「好快好快就到」，give me a sec都係一樣意思。
例子：
A:“Sorry I kept you waiting. I’ll be just a sec.”
B:“You’re already fired.”
不過，遲到係返工嘅大忌，職場遲到係無藉口嫁，
唔想比壞印象老細，就記得準時起身返工啦！
