干杯 (gān bēi) and 喝一杯 (hē yī bēi) both have the meaning of "cheers" or "toast" in English. However, there are some subtle differences in their usage and connotations.
干杯 (gān bēi) is a more formal and traditional way of saying "cheers" or "toast". It is often used in formal occasions, such as business dinners or weddings, where people raise their glasses and make a toast to show respect and good wishes. The word 干 (gān) means "to do" or "to make", and 杯 (bēi) means "cup" or "glass". Therefore, the literal meaning of 干杯 is "to make a cup" or "to raise a glass". It is also commonly used as a way to encourage people to finish their drinks in one go.
On the other hand, 喝一杯 (hē yī bēi) is a more casual and colloquial way of saying "cheers" or "let's have a drink". The word 喝 (hē) means "to drink" and 一杯 (yī bēi) means "one glass". Therefore, the literal meaning of 喝一杯 is "to drink one glass". It is often used among friends or in informal settings, such as a night out at a bar or a casual gathering.
