Here's to the New Year!
THE festive season is here. With your friends and family members around and so many New Year and end of semester celebrations, you may be tempted to drink a lot. But remember, you may drink a little, but never drink too much!
To propose a toast:
Cheers! 干杯！
Make a toast! 干杯！
Let me propose a toast to you! 干杯！(我向你敬酒)
I'd like to propose a toast. 我提议干杯！
A little drink is good for a party atmosphere, but make sure you don't do any of the following:
be on the drink (酗酒成性): be alcoholic, be drinking all the time
have a skinful (喝多了): get drunk. "Skinful" is a noun, meaning "把人灌倒的酒量".
to drink (or put) sb/oneself under the table (喝趴下，喝醉): (let sb) drink too much and get drunk
Dialogue:
A: I propose another toast! Let's drink to the success of our project!
B: OK, but don't drink too much or George will end up under the table.
A: Don't worry. We won't drink too much, even George should be able to handle it.
A: 我们再干一杯吧，祝我们的项目成功！
B: 没问题，但是别喝太多了，不然乔治会喝趴下的。
A: 不用担心，不会喝太多的，乔治喝这么点儿肯定没问题
