1、metro 往往指伦敦地铁,后来广泛流传到欧洲各地,该词也因而从法语进入英语,故在英语里指地铁的时候,偏英式。
例:an underground train system, especially the one in Paristo travel on the metro / by metro
地铁列车系统,特别是地铁或地铁的帕里斯托列车
2、subway 美国居多,偏美式,而在英式英语里大多数情况是「过街地下通道」的意思。
例:an underground railway/railroad system in a city the New York subway
纽约地铁中的地铁/铁路系统
3、underground 一般特指伦敦地铁,其他国家和城市的地铁鲜有用这个的。
例:under the surface of the ground Rescuers found victims trapped several feet underground
营救人员发现有受难者被困在地下几英尺处。
line指 界线;(尤指运动场地的)场地线,场界
城市的地铁系统在英国英语中通常称为underground(常作the Underground),在北美英语中为subway。说英国英语的人指美国城市的地铁亦用subway,而指其他欧洲国家的地铁则用metro。the Metro为巴黎和华盛顿市的地铁名称;伦敦的地铁通常称作the Tube。
例句:
1、a run-down shopping area with an underground car park.
带有地下停车场的破败的购物区
2、...the underground Kashmir Liberation Front...
秘密的克什米尔解放阵线
3、After the violent clashes of 1981 they either went underground or left the country.
经历了1981年的激烈冲突之后,他们或转入地下,或离开了该国。
4、..the Bay Area Rapid Transit subway system...
旧金山海湾地区地铁捷运系统
5、The majority of us feel worried if we walk through a subway.
大多数人在走地下通道时都感到害怕。
右耳在聽歌
subway 美国居多
tube 英国
metro 往往指伦敦地铁
underground 英国
Underground,一般特指伦敦地铁,其他国家和城市的地铁鲜有用这个的,所以 Underground 并不常用,在其他城市也不能这麼说,非要在其他地方说的话最好说全了 Underground Railway。
同时,口语中 Tube 也是特指伦敦地铁,二者没什麼大区别,例如它的官网就写著:Tube|London Underground。
Metro,原特指巴黎地铁 Métropolitain,後来广泛流传到欧洲各地,该词也因而从法语进入英语,故在英语里指地铁的时候,偏英式。
命名时在美国只有 DC 地铁的名字用 Metro。在北美 Metro 也有「大都会地区」的意思,即法语 Métropolitain 的本意。
在部分城市指交通系统的时候,Metro 不止是地铁,比如在洛杉矶 Metro 是指包括公共汽车在内的所有公交系统,公交线路也直接称
Metro。再比如,拥有港英血统的北京地铁4号线,也称自己为 Beijing Metro Line 4,而不是与其他线路一样自称 Beijing Subway。
Subway,偏美式,而在英式英语里大多数情况是「过街地下通道」的意思。
这是从纽约地铁 NYC MTA Subway 流传开来的。虽然它是偏美式的,但是并不是每个城市的地铁都叫 Subway,比如亚特兰大的
MARTA,波士顿的 The T,旧金山湾区的 BART,芝加哥的 The L。不过你到某个城市说你要找「Subway」,人家就知道你要坐地铁。
扩展资料:
在英文环境中,根据各城市类似系统的发展起源与使用习惯之不同,常称为:Metro(法国巴黎、中国大陆部分地区)、MRT(新加坡、台北、高雄等)、MTR(特指香港)、
Overground(特指地上轨道)、Railway(特指地上轨道)、Subway(美国及周边地区、北京)、Tube(特指伦敦)或Underground(特指伦敦)
