The 会 means "will" and the 在 is a preposition like "at that time". So literally it is, 

"Relax, I definitely will (before the moment of your wife's arrival) leave."

Here are three options you could choose. The first is just the word for a recommendation,

and I think 秘诀 is probably most similar to "tip" in English.

 

Here are some ways you could use them in a sentence;

  • 谢谢告诉我这个秘诀。

Xièxiè gàosù wǒ zhège mìjué.

  • 谢谢你给我的建议。

Xièxiè nǐ gěi wǒ de jiànyì.

Here are some useful sentences from our other shows: Click the lesson links to hear more about driving based lessons.

1.要离前面的车子远点,不要用力踩油门和刹车,要一点一点踩。 (LESSON)

You'll need to stay a bit further away from the car in front of you. Don't step too hard on the gas or breaks; you just need to tap on it.

2.他转弯的时候常常忘记打转向灯。  (LESSON)(He often forgets to turn on his turn signal when turning corners.)

3. ...什么插队啦,转弯不打灯啦,突然来个急刹车啦什么的,这些危险性动作都已经是家常便饭了。 (LESSON)

Cutting in line, turning without using their turn signal, suddenly slamming on the brakes, and so on; these dangerous things happen all the time.

4.他边开车边打电话,结果来不及刹车,直接撞上了前面停着的一辆出租车。 (LESSON) (He was driving and talking on the phone at the same time, and the result was that he couldn't hit the brakes in time and slammed into the taxi that had stopped ahead.)

5.现在好些了,你快踩油门,冲到前面去! (LESSON)

It's better now. Put the pedal to the metal and get up there!
