喜樂美語
  1. 1

    A morning when you stay in bed later than usual, on purpose — not because you are ill, but because you can. Strongly British. “I’m having a lie-in on Sunday.” It is a countable noun: a lie-in, a long lie-in. In American English people are much more likely to say they slept in. Though actually, lie in as a verb (to stay lying in bed) is the older piece; the noun with a , modelled on words like sit-in, is the dictionary you are learning. It has nothing to do with telling a lie, and nothing to do with laying an egg.

    賴床（偏英式；美式較常說 sleep in）
