1、在咖啡厅或者其他公共场合，如果我们要坐在别人的边上，或者让别人挪开座位上的行李，该如何用英语表达呢？可能我们大部分都会说“May I seat here？”or “Is this available here？”，下面看看有什么其他表达方式呢？
（1）如果想确认座位是不是被占了，可以说“Are you having a seat？”来问对方，例如：
Are you having a seat?
No, you can take it.
这个座位有人坐吗？没有，请坐。这里也可以说 Is this seat taken？
（2）Would you mind…？是向他人提问、征求许可的礼貌说法。
例如:
-Would you mind moving over one seat so my wife and I can sit together?
-Ok, sure.
你介意挪一下位置吗？我想和我的妻子坐在一起。
好的，没问题。
（3）seat robber：people who refuse to sit in their assigned seats on crowded trains.
指代那些在火车上遇到的蛮不讲理强行坐在其他人座位上的人。
例如：China’s internet has recently been dominated by debate over a number of high-profile “seat robbers”: people who refuse to sit in their assigned seats on crowded trains.
前段时间一系列高调的“座位强盗”事件在中国互联网刷屏，网友们展开了热烈讨论，“座位强盗”说的就是拒绝在拥挤的列车上坐自己座位的人。
