質問: I have some questions about 「コーヒー飲んでき!」 1. What is it a contraction of ? 2. Is it inchoative ? 3. In all of the examples i've found, it's an invitation to come in. But i think 「コーヒー飲んでき」can mean [ Why don't you go out, take a walk, and have a cup of coffee in a coffee shop. You'll feel better afterwards. ] Could someone confirm this ? and/or find a sample from the net, book ... ? 「お姉さん!お茶飲んでき!!」 ..... 君、コーヒー飲んでき~」と声をかけられ 、「ほなコレだけ飲んでき!」と、ビールを一杯 ご馳走頂き... 見知らぬお姉さん ... 「 ここのお酒、おいしいから飲んでき~!」と声をかけられ ... ..... サービスするしここで飲んでき~~!」と言って店の前にテーブルと椅子が準備されました♪
回答: 「コーヒー飲んでき」 is a contraction of 「コーヒーを飲んで行き(なさい)」- Have a cup of coffee. 「....してき」 is often used in such a way as "ちょっと、寄ってき(ちょっと立ち寄って行きなさい) - Have a drop at (the shop) - a solicitation phrase often heard from barkers of red-light corners. "そこへ置いとき(置いておきなさい) - Just leave it there," "気を付けてき(気を付けて行きなさい) - Take care," and "早く帰ってき(早く帰ってきなさい)- Come back soon." I'm Kyushu-ite. But, I've never heard of this turn of phrase in my hometown. I think I often heard it in Kansai-area, but I'm not sure where it is spoken widely.
