Bad Drink Name
企圖表達(dá)(正確):
Wheat Drink/Rootbeer
麥根沙士
實(shí)際表達(dá)(錯(cuò)誤):
Root SARS 非典之根
It’s a short name, Root Sars, but certainly not a popular one in China. “SARS” as most people know, was a respiratory disease that caused the death of dozens of people worldwide, most acutely in China.
Root Sars 是一個(gè)簡(jiǎn)稱,顯然,它用在中國(guó)并不合適。眾所周知,“SARS(非典)” 是一種呼吸道疾病,在世界范圍內(nèi)造成了很多人的死亡,在中國(guó)尤為嚴(yán)重。
The double “oo” can have different pronunciations in English and can be a little tough to pronounce for non-native speakers. Take a look at the following words and pay attention to the phonetic sounds.
英語(yǔ)中,“oo” 有不同的發(fā)音,對(duì)于非母語(yǔ)者來(lái)說發(fā)準(zhǔn)此音有些困難?匆豢聪铝袉卧~并注意它們的發(fā)音。
