不对呀,楼上的,当我说"sorry about that",人家的回答是:it's not your fault.6 Q7 w6 k8 F* E" h( \

很显然:sorry about that 的意思绝非:听到这消息很遗憾或很抱歉,而且"很对不起",因此人家会说:这不是你的错.1 z1 ?2 Y8 d. `- I

这也就是我发贴的问题.
"I am sorry" or "Sorry about that" is the simplified usage of "I am sorry to hear that". Although the respones is " It's not your fault," IT IS NOT YOUR FAULT!
