this one is on us.
And don't worry about the cost, this one is on us.
意思:
不用担心费用,这次我们请客。
别管钱了,这个由我们承担。
拆开理解
Don't worry about the cost
= 不用担心费用
- worry about = 担心……
- cost = 费用、成本
例如:
Don't worry about the cost. We'll take care of it.
不用担心费用,我们会处理。
this one is on us ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
这是非常地道的口语表达。
这里:
be on someone
= 由某人承担费用
所以:
This one is on us.
字面:
❌ 这个在我们身上
实际:
✅ 这个我们买单。

听力注意

this one is on us
可能听起来像:
this one's on us
因为:
one is 经常缩成:
one's
所以你可能听到:
This one's on us.
意思完全一样。
这个句子很像美国客服、餐厅、商店里的标准表达:
Don't worry about the cost. This one is on us.
属于非常高频、非常美国化的礼貌说法。你在美国生活中会经常听到。
