买菜是老百姓日常生活中必不可少的事情，但是一说到“买菜”的英文，你是不是想当然认为是“buy vegetables”？

vegetable是“蔬菜”的统称，buy vegetables的意思是“只买蔬菜”，但是除了素食主义者，大多数人买菜除了买蔬菜，也会买肉、蛋、禽类等，所以这么说是不准确的！那么，“买菜”用英文怎么说最合适呢？

01 buy groceries

【例】

There is no food at home. Didn&39;t you

buy groceries today?

家里没有吃的了。你今天没买菜吗？

My parents gave me some money to

buy groceries.

02 get groceries
