在英語(yǔ)中有許多詞可以縮短成一個(gè)或幾個(gè)字母,稱為縮略詞。縮略詞有下面幾類:
保留第一個(gè)字母的縮略詞(用第一個(gè)字母代表整個(gè)詞):
p.=page(p.239第239頁(yè);30 pp.30頁(yè))
C=Celsius(Heat the oven to 180 C.把爐灶加熱至攝氏180度。)
p=pence(They cost 5 pence.它們每個(gè)價(jià)錢(qián)為五便士。)
保留頭幾個(gè)字母的縮略詞(用前幾個(gè)字母代表整個(gè)詞):
Vol.=volume(Vol.Ⅲ第三卷)
Prof.=Professor(Prof.Richard Evans理查德·埃文斯教授)
Co.=company(Jones&Co.瓊斯公司)
?省去幾個(gè)字母的縮略詞:
dept.=department(Dept.of Physics物理系)
km=kilometer(60 km an hour每小時(shí)60公里)
mg=milligram(300 mg of calcium 300毫克的鈣)
?由詞首構(gòu)成的縮略詞(即由兩個(gè)或幾個(gè)詞的第一個(gè)字母構(gòu)成的詞):
CD=compact disc(激光唱盤(pán))
USA=United States of America(美國(guó))
VIP=very important person(貴賓)
以上均按字母讀音。有些這類詞拼在一起讀音,像一個(gè)詞一樣,如:
UNESCO讀作/ju?nesk?u/(聯(lián)合國(guó)教科文組織)
NATO讀作/?neit?u/(北大西洋公約組織)
laser讀作/?leiz?/(激光)
這類詞稱作acronyms(首字母縮略詞),前面都不加冠詞。
