I'll go / next Explanation: "I'll go" is a very common, informal way to say, essentially, "I'll take my turn." For "je laisse," most of the options with "I" statements that come to mind seem too formal to me. You might say something like, "I'm done/finished," but that could too easily sound abrupt. Simply saying "next" is a quick way to signal that it's time for the next speaker to take a turn. |
