Here are a few of the more common words which are different in American and British English. This is only meant to highlight some of the variety which exists within English, and is not a complete list by any means. It also does not address different vocabulary which is used in Australia, Canada, South Africa and India as well as the Caribbean, Africa, and the many other places in the world which use English as the language of commerce or government. 8 S) ^! k# ?# k* P( a8 @. O7 J
這裡有一些很常用的詞,但在美語和英語中有一定的差別。
' w' F. L. f5 M3 @有些英語在美語中,有著截然不同的意思,美語也是一樣。所以大家不要用錯哦~~
