1. 1nB2/ədˈvænsmənt/ · /ədˈvɑːnsmənt/晉升;進展

    正式Progress or movement forward in your job, your learning, or what people know about something.

    示範例句 · Example

    Many people move cities in search of career advancement.

    逐字許多人為了尋找職涯晉升而搬家到別的城市。

    「advancement」是比較正式的詞,核心意思是「往前、往上推進」——工作上往更好的位置走(career advancement),或知識/科學往前走(advancements in science)。跟 promotion 容易搞混:promotion 多半指「升職」那一次具體的事;advancement 範圍更廣,也更正式,可以談整段職涯的進展,也可以談科學、社會往前走。核心畫面可以想成「往前/往上推進」。
