5 Answers

Of all the days in a week, which is your favorite? I believe most people's answers are Friday, the day we get off work, go out with friends, and put all our worries behind us.


Meaning of TGIF

TGIF stands for "Thank God It's Friday", which expresses one's gratitude that the weekday is finally over. Anyone no longer knows the origin of this expression; however, the phrase is popularized by the famous restaurant "T.G.I.Friday(星期五美式餐廳)".


Here are some ways you can use this phrase...

  1. TGIF! I, for one, am thrilled to dive into the weekend.

  2. Only 10 minutes left for me to clock out into the weekend, TGIF!


Or.. you know, use it as a caption on your Instagram post or story!


Last but not least...


Next Friday, make sure to use this phrase and enjoy a wonderful weekend!
