BEE UP

释义

'Be up' has several meanings: to be awake, to have finished (for time or turns), or to be standing/raised. It often depends on context.

用法与细微差别

Context is key: 'be up' = awake ('I was up early'), finished ('Time is up!'), or someone's turn ('You're up next!'). Informal; not literal 'upwards'. Watch out: 'What's up?' is a separate greeting.
