One more serving, please · trad. 再來一份
再来一份 (zài lái yí fèn) means "one more serving" or "another portion." It is a polite and common way to ask for an additional serving of food or drink, often used in restaurants or when sharing a meal.
What does 再来一份 (zài lái yī fèn) mean?
再来一份 (zài lái yī fèn) means “one more serving, please” in English. Word for word, it breaks down as “again come one portion.”
When to use it
Neutral and polite. It's standard for ordering more food or drinks. To be more direct, you can just say "再来一份" without "请" (qǐng, please), but adding "请" or "服务员" (fúwùyuán, waiter) makes it even more courteous.
How to pronounce it
Sounds like “dzai-LIE ee-FEN.” The "yí" in "yí fèn" is a rising tone because "fèn" is a falling tone.
Other ways to say it

Pro tip: "一份" specifically refers to "one serving" or "one portion." If you want to ask for "one more" of a general item (like a specific fruit or a toy), use "再来一个" (zài lái yí gè).
