Grab a Bite

Welcome to English in a minute.

Where we teach you all about idioms in American English.

Have you ever heard this before?

I’m starving,”Let’s grab a bite.”

If someone has ever told you in English that they were going to grab a bite,and you’re confused this is the right program for you.

All this talk about food is making me hungry.

Yeah,i’m starving,too!

Do you wanna grab a bite?

Sounds good.

In American English,when you say you want to grab a bite it means that you want to eat right away,or that you’re interested in eating quickly.

If you want to make plans or sit down and have a nice fancy meal at a restaurant,you may want to say something else instead.
